Popular Dutch standard lager now owned by AB InBev. Typical golden blonde with snow white head, vague malt sweetness with some corn, watery body, light bitterish finish. I did not manage to find even the slightest sign of personality in this, totally boring and forgettable.

Fairly straightforward, mass-produced example of "Nederlands oud bruin", which is basically the same style as brown Belgian tafelbier. Made with unmalted wheat, sugar, caramel and (artificially added) lactic acid. Beige, not too stable foam over a very dark chestnut robe with a ruby glow. Sweetish, weak aroma with some faint wheat, candi syrup, cacao powder and vanilla, lactic acid hardly noticeable. Round, sweetish malt taste, smooth, again the lactic acid is hard to find but could have added some complexity - alas, it remains as simple as it began, with only a very faint, late bitterness in the tail. Even for this totally unambitious style they could have done better.

Clear golden. Light grassy, light malts (not a lot of sweetness). Medium bitter finish without much aroma. Decent and drinkable macro lager.
