Can from Booths, Media City. Hazy pale golden coloured with next to no head. Has a bit of fruit in its nose, fused with lager malt, and some citrus activity in its taste alongside some yeasts.

Can from Whole Foods London Piccadilly. It pours clear golden with a decent white head. The nose is soft, sweet, bready action, dough, cereal, pale and a bit pissy. The taste is crisp, clean, light bitterness, sweet doughy malts, creamy, cereal, fresh lemon, grassy, earth and light metallic twang with a smooth, dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Well rounded and good drinkability. Very nice lagery action.

This was poured into a pilsener glass.
The appearance was a slightly hazy golden yellow color with a decent transparency about it. Streams of carbonation rise at a moderate pace to fill a sly rapidly dissipating head. Leaves some light lacing roaming here and there.
The smell starts with a sweet wheat and runs into a light little kick of spice as it warms. Semi-grassy but crisp and refreshing breadiness.
The taste grabs the sweet wheat and combines it nicely into the spice, adds a little breadiness and blends into the aftertaste. There’s no finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a purely wonderful sessionability about it. Carbonation is light and gentle but still good for the style and for me.
Overall, as a Munich Helles lager, there’s nothing wrong with it. Its good and I would definitely have it again.

Can @ home. Lightly hazy pale yellow color, medium sized white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, lightly wheat, a hint of yeast, lightly hayish and a soft hint of bitter in the finish. Soft carbonation, soft mouthfeel, average body. Easy drinkable low ABV beer. Not bad.

Crisp, very golden coloured body with a clear glow and a thick, four centimetre tall white head. Aroma of pale malt, alcohol, lemons and a bit of funk. Light-bodied; Strong lemony flavour up front with a hint of bitterness, some very light hops, a crisp apple flavour and the very slightest hint of metal. Aftertaste shows very light and airy flavours with the malt and lemons commanding the most taste. Overall, a nice and very refreshing and easy-drinking beers that still shows a lot of character and depth, especially for the style. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Lebanese Taverna market in Arlington, Virginia sampled at home in Washington on 27-September-2014 - Thanks Kevin!

Sampled on draft at Hou Thou this beer poured a yellow-gold color with a small fluffy white head that faded quickly but left decent lacing. The aroma was faintly tangy and citric with a hint of bread. The flavor was tangy, tart and citric with a bit of bread dough, sour malts and artificial sugar. Medium length finish. Medium body. Pretty awful.

Tastes like the style. I can never put my finger on it, but has that caramelized, sugary malt. Finishes a little sweet. Pours golden with ok head and lacing. Finishes with some barley crispness. On tap at DC Beer Festival.
