Can from a local supermarket. Aroma is grainy malt with straw and grassy/herbal noble hop. A floral touch. Moderate bitter with a slight sweetness. Light to medium body. Nicely drinkable lager, could have a couple more of this.

Donkergeel bier met weinig schuim wat niet lang blijft staan. Smaak is bitter hoppig met iets van graan en wat gras. Niet uitzonderlijk maar eigenlijk gewoon een goed bier.
