Il gusto al naso viene catturato dall'orzo. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e la continuità olfattiva è corta. Il cappello di schiuma ha una scarsa tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza trasparente e anche qui la grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine, con carbonazione nella norma. Il colore è giallo paglierino. Il corpo è leggero e scorrevole. L'amaro è moderato. L'intensità gustativa è leggera. La costanza gustativa è corta. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di facile beva. Il finale è semplice.Il retrogusto è sfuggente. Al palato arrivano indizi di biscotto, cereali e metallo.

1 Litre(!) can into shaker. Pale amber, light carbonation, fast diminishing foamy white head. Nose of grain and sweet doughy malt. Medium body, flat mouthfeel. Mildly bitter taste makes way for sour grainy finish with some weird fruit sherbet/vegetable thing happening right at the end. Drinkable lager but not enjoyable.

Pours clear light yellow with a small medium white head that dissipates quickly, some lacing. Aroma of corn, grains and hay. Flavor is grassy, wet hay, bisquity and sour grains
An average pale lager.

Optisch typisch Lager, ordentliche Perligkeit, relativ stabiler Schaum. In der Nase matschig, aber nicht zu plörrig. Im Trunk recht wässrig, stark bittere Abgang mit etwas Süße. Muss sich vor deutschen Industriebieren nicht verstecken, heißt aber auch, dass es jetzt nicht die Bombe ist.
