Tasted again in 2019. I think they have changed the recipe. Now the beer is better balanced with morw tasty hops. Also nice fruity notes, apricot. 2017 rating :bottle from ride , chania. cloudy golden orange, small white head. mild aroma, slighly malty, only very slightly sweet, othwerise dry. aroma is nearly entirely just malts. flavor is malty, sweet malty, faint caramelly, boring euro macro style bitter hoppy balance, not a very interesting beer, but if you are in for a east european style strong lager with the caramel and sweet maltiness that entails, then i guess this might be sort of a very mild version of that kind of beer.
