At home, Epalinges, an ordinary beer a lager on the Swiss/Austrian way, too metalic for my taste, dry malt, tough hop, 04.11.19, buying it from one coop.

Bottle shared before (hopefully) dancing. Hay, floral, flowery. Crisp, actually not that bad. It is drinkable, though a tad sweet.

Congratulations Kona - you have emulated Miller, inbev et al in producing a boring yellow lager w/ corn, cereal etc. NOt a lot here to write home about.

Bottle. Average taste, just an average beer. Nothing great, not bad though. Good for a hot summer day.

Bottle at Billabong, Wien. Aroma of palt malts, grain, citrus notes, hint of hops. Flavour is moderately bitter. It went down well after a day of walking in a warm climate, which I guess is the kind of situation this beer was brewed for.

Аромат солодовый, весьма сладкий, как будто кукуруза, или что то похожее. Цвет золотой, пенка небольшая. Вкус такой же, солодовый по большей части, хмель только намеками на финише. Снова сладость есть, наверное кукурузная, ну или какая то злаковая. Но в целом норм.

Can from House of Trembling Madness, online. Pours a clear gold, small white head, nice consistent retention. Aroma of grainy malts and a grassy hops. Taste is sweet, grainy, grassy bitterness but there is a bit of a cardboard note in there. Light bodied but not watery, nice zing to the carbonation. An above average pale lager as scores suggest, Just a shame about the cardboard note.
