330ml bottle from Beers of Europe - Pale yellow body, huge creamy white head lasts all the way with very good lacing. Overall sweet hoppy light lager with clean finish. Sweet but nice aftertaste. Not too bad considering.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Kris Wines. Pours clear yellow with a moderate, frothy white head. The aroma holds dry cereal, dough, faint straw. Light sweet flavor, impressively dry, with further simple pale malts and low bitterness. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Mild sweetness in the finish with dry white bread, straw, biscuits. Simple, tasty pale lager.

Another one of Matt’s. Huge thanks! Way back in the beginnings of my admin career I had, barely having turned 20 some weeks before (irrelevant for the story but boy does time fly), taken it upon myself to verify this one, added by my great friend OGIVLADO (sorry, inside joke), and contacted the brewery. To my surprise, they actually responded (a surprise for a macro), confirmed it was a new, different beer and now... some 6 years after, I get. to try it. Yellow-golden body with a lasting thick white head. A symbol of its "draughtness" I reckon. Very light sourish aroma, some n(ice?) maltiness, herbal notes, light dust. Empty taste, very light grain. But hey, teasing Ogi because he gave it a 3.5 initially was fun. :)

Can sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks troubles. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma of a bit of graininess, a bit of malt and some grassy notes. Flavor has a bit of sweetness, a bit grainy with a drier finish with faint hoppiness. Rather light-bodied.

Bouteille verte 330ml. De couleur dorée pâle et claire. Nez de légumes bouillis sucrés, de grains de malt pâle sucrés, léger de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé) avec des traces de plastique. Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture légèrement aqueuse. Goût de légumes bouillis sucrés avec des notes de plastique lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de grains de malt pâle assez sucrés puis en finale l’on retrouve une très légère amertume de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé) avec des traces de maïs sucré. Post-goûty moyen-court, très légèrement amer de houblon herbeux avec un léger résiduel de grains sucrés.
