Can with the Ratebeer München group, at Jonas's, Garching, Tuesday 26th November 2019. Pours light to mid gold with a white head, simple and yet it is difficult to be critical of, it is what it is, i.e. a simple macro tasting beer, not bad, a touch cereally but not metallic. Ok.

(Can 500ml note the ABV is 4.8%, otherwise this seems the same - 2 in black circle, 11 degrees) Pours clear golden with lovely big dense white head. Aroma is corn / grain. Light body, good carbonation. Taste is rather odd. There’s some malty sweetness at the start with some subtle earthy spicey notes. This is followed by a sweetness I cannot place with a maybe peardrop hint to it. There’s some metallic bitterness in the finish which is not particularly pleasant. It is not great, but it gets more acceptable as you drink it.
