Can. Pours light golden, with a small creamy head. Aroma is caramel malts, and hoppy hints of citrus. Flavour at first appears to be a sharp zesty citrus, but ends up as a rather boring lager. Nice finish, though.

Medium white head. Clear yellow body with light carbonation. Light apple and toffee aroma with faint minty notes. Dry-sweetish minty apple taste with metallic floral notes. Mid-bodied. Faintly sharp mouthfeel. Dryish floral herbal aftertaste with apple notes. Clean and fresh. (0.33l can, Spar, Puerto Rico, Gran Canaria.)

Süß herber Antrunk auf anspruchslosem Niveau. Das Bier bleibt auf diesem Level und wird nach und anch etwas hellmalzig, was den Trinkgenuss spürbar steigert. Zum Ende herber, angenehm und erfrischend. Endlich mal ein gutes Produkt der Brauerei! 8/8/8/9/9/8

0.33 l can that a friend brought from Tenerife, thanks Matej! It poured deep golden body with small head. Weak aroma, only a little bit sharp alcoholic. Slightly bitter flavor, shows some low quality hops, alcoholic as well. Thinner to medium bodied with bitterish herbal finish. Didn’t dislike it as much as Doggythedog did, but this is worse, boring pale lager anyway!

Canned courtesy of and shared with heavy whose friend got it somewhere on the Canaries I guess. Poured a yellow-golden body with a small white head that disappeared fast despite the lively carbonation. The nose is immediately a huge letdown, an ugly mess of alcohol (?!) and vegetables. The taste is different but not far off in terms of quality. Empty (but not watery), slightly sticky and malty with some crude bitterness that I hope comes from some bad hop and not some remnants of alcohol. Seriously, this tastes like it has 1-2% more alcohol. Highly unimpressive I’m afraid.

Can. A clear, almost golden beer with a small, white head. Sweet, malty and fruity aroma. The flavor is mostly malty, with fruits and sweetness as well. Short finish. Medium body. A decent one, lacking on bitterness and for a Spanish lager, lacking on quenching qualities. 100409

330 ml can. Golden body with a diminishing white head. Aroma has some sweet malt and a fair deal of metal. Flavor is skunky malt, corn and a unpleasant harsh bitterness. Lots of metal flavor in the finish.

Sample at the Eurostash II tasting on 12/12/09: Canned version. The beer is a clear pale golden yellow color with a thin and fizzy white head that disappears quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Light malt and vegetable aroma. Light body with flavors of malt, corn and mild hops. The finish is clean and has a short malt aftertaste. I am running out of ways to call these nearly identical beers boring.
