237ml can bought in Turkey (i.e. it’s not export-only). As Efes Xtra Shot. Pours clear gold with a medium-sized white head. Aroma is honey, sweet malt, lollipops. Taste is medium sweet, malt, honey, hint of alcohol. Warming finish. Ok strong beer, I’d say it is a Heller Bock. The serving size is perfect.

4th November 2021. Just spent the last hour raking up tree leaves in my back garden. My reward is a 500ml bottle of this: BB 15th July 2022. Clean orange/golden body, nice billowing snow white head for 30 seconds, then just a wisp and collar. Light malty nose and initial taste, a little hop action gives a bit of bitterness, but it's a sunshine beer really, not an Autumn warmer. It's quenching my thirst and that's all I asked of it, would have been better sat by the Med with warm sand trickling through my toes though!

Sample from Grumbo, via minutemat; drank at home on 29th October 2021. Clean and clear light golden body, wispy white head. Malty front to the nose and taste, not surprising if it's 100% Malt I suppose. It's on the sweet side, but you'd expected that for a malty brew.

Light gold with a frothy white head and just a hint of grassy hops and fruit on the nose. Served almost freezing cold, with massive carbonaiton, taste is at a minimum, but as it warms a little it's slightly malty, slightly fruity with a hint of bitterness.
