The first Belgian take on the American "ice" lager substyle, and fortunately the last. Commercially hyped in the nineties but discontinued after some years due to lack of success - a sign the Belgians still know to a certain degree which beers to ignore. A bit stronger than Maes Pils, but little taste, some malt sweetness, slick, almost no hops noticeable. Just a bland lager and below average. Fortunately a shadow from the past now.

(Bottle 25 cl) Pale golden, decent head. I had expected a pils with all flavours removed. Instead I get a rather strong lager with lots of sweetness. They forgot the hops in this. Not very well made. 310397
