33cl bottle poured into a glass at the Phoenician Taverna in Mason, Ohio. The pour is a clear golden with a thin white head that falls quick. The aroma is sweet malt, cereal and honey. The taste is caramel honey malt along with floral. The palate is medium bodied with softer carbonation and a sweet finish. Not much going on here, though it is reasonably clean.

Bottle at Comptoir Libanais, Reading. Clear but slightly dull pale gold with a thin white head. Quite a nice soft mouthfeel for a lager. Tastes of honey and caramel malt. If you're looking for hops, you're in the wrong place. If you're looking for an interesting drink, this ain't the one for you. In short, it's nothing special. But it is pleasant enough, there's no off or adjunct flavours, it's easy to drink, and it washed down some slightly sub-par Lebanese food very well, and is better than most world lagers.

Bottle thanks to wombat23. Deep gold with a frothy white head that fades. Aroma is garden shed, cereal. Taste is mild bittersweet with light metallic notes. Finish is short and empty. Body is medium, carbonation is mild. Nothing actively offensive. It's a country tick...

Bottle from Lebanese restaurant. Soft malts and cardboard with soft corn, rice pudding and surprisingly so even some alcohol. Quite sweet and light bitter. Just medium bodied. Pretty bad but itβs super hot here and this beer is cold so itβs kind of refreshing.

Listed as 4,2%. 33 cl bottle at Alwaha, Bayswater, London. Pours sparkling clear pale golden. Whitish foamy short-lived head. Aroma is very low: porridge, vanilla, stop. Mouth is fizzy, light, tasteless, low-lingering. Bah.

From old tasting notes. Bright brassy gold color. Small white head. Light grainy malt aroma. Sweet fruity grain malt flavor. Tangy semi-dry finish has faint hops.

Bottled. Thanks oh6gdx! Poured clear golden color with a thin white head. Sweet malty, papery, toffeeish notes. Pretty basic bulk lager, sweetness, malt, wet cardboard. Ugly.
