Big bottle, looks interesting. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Starts mild, a bit metallically, modest dry. Mild finish, a bit soapy-dry. Nothing special.

Shared 330 ml can, at local tasting. ABV is 5.1%. Pale golden colour, large white head. Minimal aroma, hints of grassy and citrussy hops, not unpleasant though. Fairly "clean" and neutral pale lager flavour, a hint of citrus, noticeable hops. Not as bad as I feared.
