Mini bottle shared at chriso’s. Pours clear yellow with a foamy white head. Classic cheap pale lager. Nice cereal, some grains, paper, white bread. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sugary finish, no hops really, some papery cereal. Fine. Rubbish, but fine.

Review according to BJCP2008 guidelines (style 1B). Bottle 66cl - batch L204214. AROMA: faint corn like aroma. no hop aromas. APPEARANCE: very clear straw color. thin white head. TASTE: very low corn like sweetness that persists in the aftertaste. no hop flavours and no bitterness. PALATE: very low and watery body with very low carbonation. OVERALL: na extremely watered down pale lage, altough it says "pilsener" on the bottle.

Bottle from Jumbo. Clear golden body with a thin white head. Lively carbonation. No lacing. Aroma of urine, grain and lemon sponge. Weird flavour of sour grain and sweetcorn juice. Thin body with a watery texture. Fizzy carbonation. Bordering on undrinkable - I couldn’t finish the bottle.

Tons of particles floating, slowly, kept in suspension by the lazy carbonation. Not much of a head either. I was thinking it was a bad bottle until I read other rater’s notes. Dark golden in color with minimal head. Seems closer to a lager in taste than pilsner, but I do think the bottle is old. Grain and malt dominate the overall experience. Not as bad as I would have thought, but imagine it would be better closer to the source. On second thought, it is a bad bottle. Shame.

A golden lager with a thin white head. In aroma, lightly sulfury corn adjunct malt with light grassy notes. In mouth, actually not too bad, light sweet malt with faint German hops, a bit of biscuit notes, OK. Bottle from El Cortes Ingles, Lisbon, 46 cents for a 250 ml minibottle.

Nip bottle @ home. I thought I was getting a Portugal tick and now I’m just stuck with a crappy Dutch pale lager. Bleh. A touch hazy, golden appearance with a white head. Grainy pils malty, grassy, straw aroma. Pretty crisp, pils malty, grassy/floral hoppy, hay, straw flavor. Ok.
