Can at home. Looks like lager. Smells of very little, tastes metallic. Works ok as a shandy.

Bleh! Bad, bad, bad. Decent looking beer with thick head, but smell, taste and palate are terrible. If I wasn’t thirsty, this might rate as a drain pour.

Draught @ Tivoli, Tampere. Rated on 25.04.2012
Stale and swet aroma with corn, some metal and grainy malt. Flavour is sweet and slightly stale with corn, hay, hints of grainy malt and metal. Bulky and too sweet.

568ml pint tinny (i.e. can), chilled and poured into a pint glass. Clear light golden amber colour, initial large frothy white head that diminishes leaving lots of lacing and aroma of malt., grain, cardboard. Taste is malt, syrup, grain, grass, slight sweetness and a hint of bitterness. Thin bodied, medium carbonation, bland flavour, one for drinking cold.

A golden clear chill-fest, on a hot day (with no choice) not something to get all berr-snobbish about. Better than a coke.

Can. Light yellow color with almost no head. Aroma quite watery with hints of corn, grass and hay. Taste, watery with hints of malt and hops. Very light bitterness in finish. What to say more? Nothing.

Characterless mass-produced lager with a poor and weak tasting flavour to it.
