0.33 l green bottle without BB date, poured murky yellow body with tiny "head". Aroma is not bad, but very weak, malty mostly with some hints of fruits. Flavor...a big surprise...awful metallic sweetish similar to NA’s but with lot of alcohol this time. Awful really. Moderate carbonation. Finish is fortunately very short. Two sips, gave also a third try and down the sink... This is a malt liquor and really bad one...

Ewwww..... looks ok, golden with a big head that leaves some amoeba looking lacing around the glass. Tastes.... foul. Just about the worst tasting beer I ever drank (Rostocker Freibeuter has a similar taste, but isn’t as foul, and K Plus has a worse taste, but it’s not as cloying). Alcohol and... alcohol.... and... malt. And it’s quite bitter to top it off. By the way, what kind of name for a beer is Slalom, I mean, the first thing that comes to my mind when I hear that is Janica Kostelic, not beer. Just noticed the gold medal on the label.... how on earth did this get it... but hey, it was in the 70’s... who know what the judges were on.

Blond color. Very poor aroma, sweetish. Strong body, not the worst in the category, quite strong bitterness in the final.
