Found at Carrefour for extra cheap, €0.28 a can! Much better than paying nine Euros for it in the middle of Paris.... but anyways, Pours with decent head and okay yellow. No aroma to speak of - maybe some malts? The taste is equally unimpressive with faint malts and not much else. Very refreshing as it’s quite close to water.

Can. A golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt and grain. The flavor is with notes of malt, and straw, leading to a bitter finish.

Can 50 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a clear yellow with a huge and dense white head. Unclean malty nose. Medium body, a little low in carbonation with a very soft mouthfeel. Hardly any bitterness. 110110

1/12 From 0.5 l can. It poured yellow body with medium to bigger head. Lemony hoppy and somewhat malty aroma. Boring, but still less unimpressive than its flavor. Malty, slightly eggy and unpleasantly sourish. Grainy, a lot of hay here. Watery, but not too much, so it had medium, but crappy sourish finish. Some hints of alcohol which is so weird for such low ABV. Typical cheap pale lager with slightly unpleasant notes.

Can, 4.5% I think found somewhere in France with heavy (and shared with him as well) Poured a golden body witha medium sized white head that went away fast. Malty nose, some sweaty, bitter notes and alcohol. Wha? The taste is, well, crap. Notes of alcohol in a 4.5% beer, some malty notes, bit appley, sweaty hopiness, lightly bitter. Almost warming. Again, crap.

Bottle, 4.2%. Good rough hop aroma. Clear golden colour. Stable white head. The flavour is quite thin, however. There is some malt flavour in there, but much too weak.
