Draught, deep golden colour, soft carbonation, smaal quickly dissapearing head. light aroma of hops but otherwise quite muted. Taste is a blend of soft but lasting bitterness and touches of caramel sweetness. Medium sweet and sour aftertaste. meduim to full body. Quite nice.

440 ml can, brought home from Cyprus by my wife. Pale golden colour, large head. Sweetish aroma with notes of candy, grass, flowers and honey. The flavour is relatively crisp with a slightly spritzy mouthfeel, somewhat better than expected. Light bodied. Could have been worse.

Small white head quickly disappears. Light copper body. Light, unbalanced sugar and corn aroma. Sweetish corn and malts taste with metallic, medicinal notes. Unbalanced. Alcohol notes. Metallic aftertaste. This is really poor. (0.33l can, thanks to KnutAlbert.)

Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma of sweet malts and hops. Flavour is malts, hops and maize. Slight caramellishness, but still not "clean" caramel. Sime kind of "hidden" diacetyl?

Bottle 0,5Lt. Golden color. Medium white head. Rich malt aromas (lightly hopped) and taste. Not bad. A good lager overall (excellent for a hot summer day in Cyprus)

Bottle. Light malty aroma. Pale golden in colour, with a white head. Taste is malt and a light floral element. Small bitterness in the finish. Uninteresting pale lager. Rating: 3-2-3-3-10-2.1. 051002

Bottle. It pours a slightly pale, golden body with good carbonation forming a finger-thick white head leaving some lacings. Grainy, slightly vegetal nose where hops are present. Medium body, quite effervescent. Dry mouthfeel with flavors of citrusy fruits, pale malts and some bitterness leading to a medium-lenght finish. Not much to cheer for here, but it’s a quite drinkable beer that will slake the thirst. 091220

(Bottle 33 cl) Apparently a "historic" beer as it’s the first ever Cyprus-beer. Relaunched in the mid ’90’s. All malt. Golden, decent head. Moderately hoppy with a slight touch of sourness on the palate. But a pretty basic lager. Thanx to Carina for bringing me this in your hand luggage
