Gordon ® Five ® , a Pilsener style with an elegant nature, having a progressive bitterness that arrives when reaching the throat without the slightest acridness. It rather comes across with sweetness without excessive prolongation.

Ambar. 1 dedo de espuma. Aroma a Granos de café, muy marcado. Prometedor. Pero el sabor no esta a la altura. Excesivamente cereal. Y final muy amrago, duradero.

On tap at a pub. Average looking lager. Golden color, persistent white head. Somewhat grainy and straight forward lager, average.

33 cl. – clear green – bottle @ home. Procured from Carrefour. Pours a clear amber orange with a tiny synthetic white head. Smells like an industrial lager but rawer, touch solvents and superglue mixed with this odd sweetness like watered down cheap candy sugar, I am not feeling it. Taste is bitter, surprisingly some hops here mixed with a watery mess of watered down brown honey and chemicals, sweet grains and caramel. The whole thing is really watery. Despite all of this you still get a light alcohol burn, garbage ingredients I suppose. A total mess, not much of a surprise there. Label at least doesn’t look to bad.

Bottle. Pale piss yellow. Flavour is sweet caramel and some itchy hops. Thin and unacceptably poor.

16/VI/13 - 33cl bottle from Carrefour Planet (Oostakker) @ Akke's place - BB: 25/VII/13 (2013-565)

Clear orange beer, small irregular white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: sugary, floral, some honey, bit chemical and smelly. MF: soft carbon, medium to light body. Taste: little bitter, metallic, some grains, sweet and sugary. Aftertaste: grains, cow fodder, sugary, bit metallic, some banana. Gordon Five did not convince my most demanding palate.

Clear golden colour, white head. Aroma of malts. Sweet malty, light bitter flavour. Medium body, malty finish.
Gordon’s lager. Not bad. Not great either, but still quite decent.
(From 33cL bottle @ Het Brouwershuis, Baarle-Hertog)

33cl bottle @ home. Clear golden color, small off-white head that diminishes almost instantly. Smell malts, grains, lightly sweet. Taste sweetish malts, lightly sweet, slightly butter. Low carbonation, low body.

Virtually no head over clear metallic copper-orange beer. Dull doughy, even oxydized, wholemeal bread, bit of honey, sweetish. Not that sweet in the mouth; very faint point of acidity, grainy character. Something like bread soaked in buttermilk. Spritzy feel, if not visually so. Bit sticky MF, watery too. Rather dull, if easy-drinking.
