It is an average lager, nothing sexy, normal taste, good for party, malty, bready, some hop, a bit watery and metalic 26.04.17

[as St. George Beer, ABV 4.7%] Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso propende per l'orzo. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore è destinato a vita breve. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. Il liquido è di apparenza limpida. Poche bollicine fini costituiscono la forma della frizzantezza. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è medio. L'amaro è poco incisivo. La forza gustativa è normale. La continuità gustativa è sufficiente. Sul palato si fermano indizi di cereali e di carta.

330ml bottle from Blue Nile restaurant, Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham. Light to mid-gold, clear with a smattering of white head. Pleasant light corn aroma. Taste with medium sweetness, light grain. Very well balanced for a macro lager.

Pleasantly sweet malt, crisp, and a very mild bitter finish. Not a bad lager at all.

Bottle at African restaurant in Rome. Golden with a lasting white head. Sweet malt and cardboard character like so many other tropical lagers.

From bottle at the lounge at Addis Abeba airport 07.11.23 while on transit on the way home from a holiday in Tanzania with DJ and Ingeborg. Clear pale straw colour. Foamy, dense and persistent head. Aroma and taste of sweet pilsner malt, grains and bland pilsner hops. A standard Eurolager brewed in Ethiopea.

From bottle. Dusty malts, a hint of skunk, bread crust, tea, a hint of hops. Medium sweet and light bitter. Watery. Not great but passable pale lager.
