0.6L bottle shared with some cousins boxing day. Awful, they agreed. Only bought the bottle for a new country tick.

600ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Clear gold, small but decent lasting white head for a standard lager. Aroma is somewhat malty with watered down caramel coming through, some veg starch water, reasonable grassy hops with a hint of citrus. Taste is bog standard version of the aroma, somewhat grainy and boiled veg noted. Hops barely noticeable except for a minor bitterness in the finish. Light to medium body but lacks a bit in carbonation to give a refreshing quality I've had much worse.

Can 0,5 ltr: Clear golden colored brew with with an somehow light sweet bitter taste, some sweet corn hints but not much. Because i expected an more crappier beer, this beer works best under an scourging hot sun. Bought it at Tropische Supermarkt Kaystar, Bijlmerdreef 1182, 1103 JV Amsterdam.
