Beer example. I think there used to be another Holland beer that was actually quite good but I don't think this is it. Appearance has is unnatural super thick creamy off-white head that just doesn't feel right. Aroma is slightly skunky otherwise okay flavor is similar to nose more sweet than bitter and also seems off and unnatural. I got a six pack and I think I was burned

Bottle. Lemon, biscuit malt, and light skunky grass aroma.. Golden yellow with small head. Lightly sweet lemon, biscuit malt, and mildly bitter grass flavor. Okay body. Typical skunkiness of lager in green bottle. Still not bad for the price.

Pour is a yellow with a large white head. Aroma is burning and sulfur. Flavor is non offensive with some graininess, that’s about it. I was in a lager mood but this was a pretty poor choice. Nothing going on here.

Pours clear, tiny bubbled gold with a white head. Aroma is slightly grainy..a surprisingly low amount of skunk.... Flavour displays slightly more of both elements. Though not great, it’s not terrible either. Honestly, I prefer this to Heineken.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours clear golden with medium white head. Aroma is corn and light skunk, some lacing, light watery body, and light carbonation. Taste is metallic corn and a hint of skunk. I won’t be having this again.
