And this one makes me the top rater for this brewery. Yaaay, go meeee. As with Braunger, courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who brought it from Budapest (thanks!) Poured a dark amber-red body with a slightly off white head. The nose is beets and cardboard. What fun. Not much taste, light sweetness, beets (perhaps the least obvious in any of their beers other than the Sörlimonade), slightly earthy. Dunno, bearable? Hardly exciting.

As Szögedi Braunger. Poured a dark amber-red body, slightly hazy, looking dark brown in the glass. Lasting rocky thick white head. Malty nose, caramel and trademark Szögedi beets. Those beets end up in the taste as well (of course), shadowed by a nice caramel presence with some light roastiness. No hop, drinkable, sweeter than the average. Just odd and pretty much what I expected from this brewery.

0.5l bottle courtesy of ogivlado who shared it with me (thanks!) Guess this is not the same as Szögedi Sör as they seem to be available at the same time and why on Earth would they label the same beer differently. It’s certainly at least as bad. Hazy dark yellow body, sweet sweaty sugary ugly nose. Sweet taste of beets and sweat, slightly dry. Definitely odd and hardly pleasing. Dunno, maybe we’re going too easy on these Szögedi beers. Sure, it’s probably a micro and it has taste unlike most if not all Hungarian micros and they are original but when you look at it as objectively as possible, they pretty much all suck.

0.5l bottle at Andersen Pub, Budapest. Had it from the bottle I’m afraid, so I’ll just echo what the others said. Light sweet (fake?) lemony arome. Odd lemon, herbs?, very light bitterness, caramel? Less offensive than some, different than most.

1l plastic bottle from a small kiosk/store at the Podmaniczkxy Frigyes tér facing the Bajcsy-Zsilinszky út. Is this what used to be called Gutberger? The same ingredients really as that one, almost the identical label as the Ászok though. This has a red-bordered sign on a green background while the Ászok has the opposite. Poured a pale golden-yellow body with a huge white head that went away relatively fast. Dusty nose of passionfruit and beets. Yay. Some lemon though. The taste is dominated by beets again but not as bad as the Ászok It’s creamy, and ends bitter and overall ends up being way more balanced than that one, but still not a particularly good beer. Ah, well.

1l plastic bottle from a small kiosk/store at the Podmaniczkxy Frigyes tér facing the Bajcsy-Zsilinszky út. Funny really, a communicative local guy of about my age was buying bottles of Szögedi beers and claimed, in English better than 98% of the locals, that he liked either this or the Sör more. I think this. Twas fun. Anyway, this poured a pale golden-yellow body with a big white head that went away fast. The nose was strange and not really inviting, sweaty passionfruit and coardboard. Quite strong too. Eh. The taste was sweetish and light, a bit fruity but carrying distinct notes of beets which, as usual, ruin everything for me. The carbonation bite is stronger than it should be as well so, basically, this isn’t one of my favorites. I do hope the guy from the beginning of this rate discovers some better "obscure" Hungarian beers, he seems like a cool guy.

Bottled 500ml. -at Anderson Pub Budapest. Extremely yellow coloured, medium sized white head that went away fast, citric nose. Lively carbonation. Sweet lemony dishwashing gel taste with notes of camomile tea. Like Armando said, not the worst but also not the best radler I’ve tried.
