Deep amber color, small off-white head. Chemically, medicinal aroma. Medium-bodied. Tart, medicinal, "dry yeasty" flavor. Quite awful.

Bottled 750ml. -from some local souvenir shop in Lisboa. Cloudy orange coloured, small white head, sourish yeasty nose again. Moderate malty, light hoppy and quite sourish yeasty with mild spicy finish. Not worth 8.95€ I’ve paid.

Bottled 500ml. -from some local souvenir shop in Lisboa. Hazy orange/golden coloured, small white head, some sourness in the nose. Moderate malty, yeasty, light spicy and fruity with notes of caramel in the finish. Not so good and for sure this isn’t a dunkel. Or maybe infected one but all three Vadia beers I’ve tried had some similar acidic notes.

On tap @ Celorico da Beira Beerfestival. Golden colour with good duration and nice lacing. Aroma has a good contribution of wheat with banana notes. Flavor is slightly sweet, notes of wheat and coriander and mild banana notes. The final is creamy, slightly bittery and mild watery.

Bottled 500ml. -from some local souvenir shop in Lisboa. Pale golden coloured, medium sized white head that went away slowly, lively carbonation, mild hoppy nose. Malty, quite bready and yeasty with mild notes of hops in the finish. Thin but drinkable. All in all nothing exciting here.
