A smooth unimpressive lager. Sweet malt flavor and aroma. Not much goin on here but not a bad beer.

Bottle. Booths, Ilkley. Clear, dark yellow. Messy, lasting, white head. Quite grassy. Both malts and hops. Trace of lemon. Drinks crisp, fresh, and with a touch of sweetness. Very drinkable lager. Could put a few of these away with ease!

355 ml bottle from a Hawaiian restaurant in Daikanyama. Served in a pint glass. Clear golden yellow color with minimal head. Slight malt aroma with hints of tropical fruit and resin hops. Slight citrus taste on the palate. Clean and crisp with a refreshing dry finish. Solid lager and better than any macro lager choices for sure.

Can from JSG Wine Merchants, Hills Road, Cambridge. Light yellow, a thin uneven white head. Delicate carbonation. The aroma is actually quite nice for a lager: floral, lemon, a hint of toffee. Taste is acceptable but not particularly exciting: a cereal-laden bittersweet with a very short finish. Very weak body, but the carbonation is good. Enjoyable but not overly so.

Appearance is clear and light golden, not much head. Aroma- vague hops, malty, not much going on. Taste of cereal malt, a bit creamy, slight spice. Ok lager.

Yellow color with hardly any head. Boring lager with a touch of citrus. A hint of earthy hops as well. Sorta refreshing. Meh.

Bottle shared at the RBESG 2014, grand tasting 09/08/2014 Moncada Brewery. Very pale yellow coloured pour with a small fleeting white head. Aroma is estery, hot ferment, sweet lemon. Flavour is composed of light carbonic acid, straw, pils grains and some corn. Palate is very light and lots of carbonic acid.

Bottle from QClub at home. Translucent golden pour with limited head. Bubbly. Aroma is typical lager with some floral hops and maltiness. Taste is crisp lager but covered slightly by smooth malty sweetness and a tiny bit of floral hops. Bitter finish. Slightly above normal lager but not that much better.
