Bottle 300ml.
Clear medium yellow orange color with a large, frothy to creamy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, cabbage water, cardboard, vegetable. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20090717]

Weird polygon bottle (and that’s where all excitement ended) at Hillsborough Hotel with jan and Craig. Absolutely boring pale lager I hardly managed to have a couple of sips.

Attractive 300ml conical bottle from Tesco Straw with a loose white head; sweet, sweaty, grainy aroma; soft, watery body, some light cardboard flavours; a touch of lemon to finish. A triumph for presentation over contents.

Hazy pale yellow color, small head. It smells of wet newspapers and alcohol. The common Lager flavor has a quite smooth texture and a light vanilla touch, with some alcohol perception too, overall very bad.

[300ml bottle from Tesco’s Reading]. Unusual tall octagonal bottle, but only 300ml - however, once you see it you can’t resist buying it, the bottle is a stroke of marketing genius! Beer is pale gold with a small white head, which persisted throughout drinking. A very smooth and creamy lager, with a hint of honey but little other flavour. Definitely one of the many Budweiser-style "light lagers" out there, but less refreshing than some due to the creamy texture. Overall pleasant enough, but nothing spectacular here (apart from the cool bottle which would make this a good beer to show off with at trendy parties!).

Bottled(300ml). -From Pianeta Birra 2008 as Viru Premium Estonian Beer. The bottle is same like that one on the picture, but the label is different.
Pale golden coloured, small white head, strong grassy and corn nose. Low carbonation. Pure spring water with weak, weak malty and hops note in the finish. Nice looking bottle for totally beer failure.

300ml bottle from Tesco. Pale gold, lasting white head. Some lemon on aroma. Bit of crappy lager aroma. Anyway apart from that, it’s pretty good. Nice lemon curd flavour towards the end. It’s fine with a nice finishing fruity kick.
