Bottle. Rich dark amber beer with an off-white head. Low aroma with some earthiness. Lots of sweet caramel malt in the flavor. Caramel lingers. Easy drinking, but a tad too sweet.

Pours bright reddish, clear amber into a snifter. Conglomerate head quickly dissipates. Earth and malt notes. Creamy and malty, a little sticky with slightly bitter hops in the lingering finish.

0.66l bottle courtesy of ozujsko (thanks!) This poured a pale golden colour with a medium sized fluffy but thick white head that went away at a medium pace. The nose is bad... Bad dusty malt with some weak skunkiness...ugh. The taste is watery, so smooth I guess, some ok maltiness, but the big (for a macro pale lager) but crude hopiness dominates the end and the (long) aftertaste. Could be worse, but still far from good.

12oz Bottle Pours out a light Pee color. With a tall white head. My first thought when I pourd it out was man this looks very poor. After i tasted it --> YES it was lame. F-

Blond color. Very common South Europe Pale Lager, that is: poor flavor and quite high bitterness. Light honey aroma.

An orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty, while the flavor is slightly acidic with notes of malt and caramel, leading to a dry acidic end mixed with notes of straw.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a dark amber with a small, off-white head. Malty, caramelish nose. Full and malty body with accents of caramel. Bitter, hoppy finish with some alcohol. Solid but quite raw and unrefined. 300406

bottle - Yawn. It’s yet another watery, mostly tasteless pale lager. As others have already mentioned, the aroma is of grain, skunk, and a bit of hops. The flavor is a thin, watered down malt something or other with a bit of hops noticeable. It’s somewhat refreshing and not terribly offensive, except for the fact that the price includes import tax for more of the same boring, watery beer that pervades U.S. macrobrews already.

Pale yellow, small vanishing head. Metallic water, yeast and wheat bread in the nose - likely a bit unclean. Sticky and harsh grassy hop flavor, very cheap-like flavor. All the way "hypermarket chain beer" feeling here.
