Bottle shared thanks to VipInVelp. Clear light golden with white head. Some sweet malts, cardboard, industrial honey, light grass and some cotton. Light sweet and very light bitter. Light bodied. Not bad for what it is really.

Bottle from a cheap corner shop in Bedford. Big 600ml bugger. Golden, light, clear, thin and slightly flat. Smells of grain, lemon and glue. Tastes pretty good actually, there’s a defined malty sweetness that turns slightly bitter in the finish. Grain and aspartame in the aftertaste. Not as bad as you’d think.

Clear yellow. Sour smell. Flavour has a slight sickly citrus hint to it but it doesn’t taste of a great deal. What I’m really after from this sort of lager is something cold and crisp. Because what little taste it has is a touch sickly. Not great.

Tastes like straw with some pper. Golden pour with good head and lacing. Pretty clean finish. Not bad for a national lager, all things considered. Big Bottle at Bukom cafe in Dc.

Bottle. Aroma corny, syrupy. Clear golden c. Taste is washing cloth, metallic. At least a bit drinkable. Nevertheless a bad beer to be honest.
