Sampled from 0.45 l can from 'Craft Bier Bude', canned in May 2020. Clear, golden with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, minimally skunky aroma of grains and some corn. Gently sweet, slightly malty taste of grains, some corn and traces of straw, followed by a short, minimally bitter, a little skunky finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Even if it's not an aroma bomb anyway, this can might have been way too old. Should check canning date next time before I buy stuff like this.

Creamy head, disappearing slowly. Slight hoparoma. Just a little sweetness in the flavor. Vegetable-like flavors, some hops and a hint of citrus. Bit skunky aftertaste.
