(Can 50 cl) Jesus, Martens produces all sorts of crappy beers for different markets - even for Aldi in Germany. I believe I bought this in The Netherlands though. Beautifully fully golden, not much head. Very aggressive alcohol with a harsh, bitter finish. Not to enjoy - only to get drunk. 010804

(Bottle 25 cl) Pale golden, filtered pilsenerish beer with a dry, bitter and rather short finish. A light and very satisfying summer-quencher. Nice. 240896

A hazy light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma has slight wheat notes? While the flavor is sweet malty and also slight wheat notes.

(Bottle 25 cl) Belgian table beers use all sorts of references to "real" beer types on their labels. I’ve had both "Trippels" ans "Dubbels" even a "Faro" but I do believe this is my first time withh a table "Stout". Dark brown, clear and filtered, no head, high carbonation. Decent but thankfully not overwhelming sweetness - due to both sugar and artificial sweeteners. Drinkable. 120105

An orange beer with a white head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet with straw being most dominant.

2004 bottle. Nose is flowery, light sugars, spring water...... Roman baths..... Color is remarkably clear, with a slight hint of light, light, light peach. Small head, rapidly dissipating. True to style, it’s got that weird, low-carb sugar flavor to it, what is that flavor??? Highly filtered, there’s not much to this, but perhaps some yeast, or maybe I’m imagining that? Very simple but inoffensive, to me...... Extra-light bodied.......... good water substitute. . .

Canned. Clear golden. Fruity and grassy. Thin. Papery finish. Sub-par supermarket brew.

A golden beer with a huge creamy white head. The aroma is sweet straw with notes of malt. The flavor is of grain and straw, with a quite distinct hop note in the end - a quite crisp flavor, but the body is thin. Not bad, just boring.
