The original Cisk Lager Beer is a golden-coloured, bottom-fermented lager with a distinctive and well-balanced character. Its rich hop aroma and pleasant bitterness has made it the natural choice and thirst quencher for beer drinkers who want to savour the original brew which has remained faithful to its recipe of 1929.
Recipient of a number of international awards since its launch in 1929, Cisk Lager Beer is popular any time of the year and consumed across the Maltese Islands, holding a strong presence at Malta’s traditional social band clubs, known as ”kazini”. On a hot summer day, it is best enjoyed chilled by the sea with friends. Just add a barbecue banquet or a selection of fresh shellfish and Cisk will be the perfect companion.

Can from Jeremy. New country tick. all else, a cheap, grainy euro lager, watery, wet paper smell and taste. Not horrendous, but not that good either.

Can thanks to Alaster. My first Malta tick. Pours out a crisp golden topped with a white head. Nose is corn wheat grain and some grass. Taste is more of the corn and wet wheat.

Clear pale golden colour, small frothy white head, mostly diminishing. Aroma grainy, pale malt, paper. Flavour medium sweet and light bitter, bit watery, slightly more bitter in the finish, nothing special.

Finally a beer from Malta! Huge thanks Lidija for bringing it here! Shared with heavy. Poured a pale golden-yellow body with a medium sized white head - but with low retention. Malty nose, just slightly herbal. Relatively empty taste, with a herbal hoppy note, and a tiny touch of breatiness. Overcarbonated too. Not entirely bad, not that good. As expected.

Dorada muy clara, espuma blanca. Aroma cereal. Refrescante, citrica, amarga al final. Poco que aportar.

Bottle dated Apr 09: Honey and mildew aroma, lemon zest. Crystal clear amber, medium head, some lacing. Metallic hay and honey, soft carbonation. Light body, surprisingly refreshing. Enticingly quaffable. Really held up to time quite well.

Tap at Black Gold, Sliema. Poured a crystal clear light amber with a thin broken white head. The aroma is yeast light malt. The flavour is light bitter with a light watery yeast light hop palate. Light bodied with average carbonation. Yummy... what a treat :-)
