Bottle at Café Omo (Ethiopian Restaurant) in the company of Arthur, Kostas, Giovanna, Xenofon, Anastasia and Peter. Pours gold, good clarity a nice white head atop. It's better than expected, ok it's a simple and probably mass produced lsger but it's ok. Lacks bitterness, too sweet, little in the way of hops, but refreshing and a good match for the meal.
