Sample @ 1st edition Brewver Belgian gathering, Mar 07, 2020. Thanks Tim.
Dorée au col blanc.
Pale lager des plus classiques et encore pas vraiment un des meilleurs exemples.
Impression de carton fermenté - malté, infusé à la feuille verte de thé avec un effet de métallique qui perdure.
Rien de naturel, le houblon est en vrac, le grain est à la limite.

Heineken-produced industrial pale lager from Algeria, probably very close to the standard Tango Bière Blonde from the same plant, if not an alias - I will leave this daunting task to the admins... Thanks to tderoeck. Snow white, bubbly, open head with a thin, disparate 'veil' in the middle, clear 'old gold' robe. Aroma of bread crust, burnt rubber, straw, baking powder, plaster. Sweetish, 'dead' onset, medium carbonation, smooth grainy maltiness, slick with minerally side notes, leading to a lightly floral hop bitterish touch - a vague echo of hops in their most artificial and frugal form - but also with a 'chemical', plastic-like bitterishness to it. Poor industrial pale lager - worse even than Heineken's own name sake lager...

Clear pale blond beer, big fizzy aery irregular white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very dirty, lots of cow fodder, very dirty, highly unpleasant, wet socks, cardboard, big no-no. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: bit sweet, sugary, oxidized, bad, wet grains, cardboard. Aftertaste: soft bitterness, little fruity, sweet touch, meh.

Many thanks to CH-303 for this 25cl bottle! The beer starts neutral grainy with a neutral bitterness. Not much depth but slightly metallic sweetish. Malty grainy, refreshing but neutral bitter in the aftertaste. Interesting.

Probably best to drink the wine if you visit Algeria. This is an average lager, medium body, some bitterness in the finish, otherwise pretty boring.

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of Bov. Clear, pilsener golden with a somewhat rough, white head. Sweetish aroma of unfermented grain. Thin and watery body with sweetish, bready accents of grain - and nothing else. A very weak whiff of hops and cardboard. 090407

Bottled. A golden beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet with a cloying malt note combined with some fruity notes. The flavor is sweet malty - the sweetness being very artificial, and the body is no wonder thin.
