500ml can. Pours clear gold with a thin white head. Aroma is somewhat fruity Belgian yeast, metal, malt. Taste is light sweet, pears, yeast; alcohol. Light bitter and boozey finish. Highly carbonated. Medium bodied. More believable as a strong Eastern European lager-type beer. Didn’t manage more than half the can.
