Bottle, 3,9 ABV, 11 months before bbd. Finally I get to this timeless classic. All the way from a continent far, far away comes this watered down version of the otherwise brilliant, near perfection of tastelessness. Pours a beautiful crystal clear, pale yellow, with a creamy head. Some sharp, citrusy hoppiness in the aroma, with a flat, dull biscuity sense of malts, with notes of dry, Mexican hay. Light to medium body, with average carbonation. Flavour has a sharp, citrusy hoppy edge, and light biscuity malts with floral notes of honey, minerals and hay. It's almost kind of fresh and rather crisp, with a nice dryness. Yet, still there's a sweet finish of cardboard, garden compost as well as light metal and garbage that's no winner in my little book of beer preferences.

white head with poor retention, that reduces to a thin spotty lace cap that lingers. Slight spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation. Good appearance. Aromas of cracker, corn, white bread, lightly toasted biscuit, pepper, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with pale malt/grains and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of cracker, corn, white bread, lightly toasted biscuit, pepper, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, floral, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, corn, white bread, lightly toasted biscuit, pepper, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. A bit of skunky aromas/flavors, but not overwhelming at all. Nice robustness and balance of pale malt/grains and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with no fruity/yeasty notes present. Moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and light body; with a very smooth and fairly bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is good. A bit thin but not watery. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.1%. Overall this is a good light adjunct lager. All around good robustness and balance of pale malt/grains and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Surprisingly flavorful for the ABV. Very clean pils malt/grains, and nice earthy hop presence/balance for the style. Not overdone on adjuncts. A nicely enjoyable offering, and impressive style example. Thought this was better than the Extra overall.

Bottle at Courtyard by Marriot Los Angeles/LAX. Golden with a white head. Swwet and thin with corn, bread and some grass. The body was light as was the bitterness. A boring one.

Watery with a really poor body and no distinctive flavor to speak of. I can honestly say that this is the only beer I have made the choice not to finish.

Bottle from a friend's house. Enjoyed from the bottle. Clear straw yellow piss color. No aromas to speak of and flavor is pretty lifeless. Nice carbonation. Sweet finish, but not overly so. Meh.
