33 cl can from Unide. Let me start saying this: I’ve been quite surprised by this lager. I expected a dreadful brew, since it only costs 29 c. per can, but it’s not bad at all. In a blind taste I’d struggle to tell this one from other beers with higher ratings, I’m sure. That said, let’s move to the actual review: Pours pale golden, crystal clear, with abundant white head. Aroma is bread, iron filings, with a hint of egg yolk and a hint of rosemary. Taste is fresh, medium-bodied, creamy, fizzy and short-lingering. All in all a nice cheap one. Don’t despise it for being a private label.

It has a golden brown colour. It’s bready, malty and sweet. Not a very pleasant drink.

Has a clear golden appearance. The aroma and the flavour have a sugary malt sweetness.
