(Bottle 33 cl) Pale golden, fine creamy head that laces my glass. Weak, malty nose. Incredibly light body and very, very watery. A weak touch of hops in the finish. A sad beer indeed. 300605

An orange beer with an off-white head. The aroma is spicy with ginger being most dominant. The flavor is very sweet and again with ginger being most dominant.

Blond color. Light corn and paper aroma. Surprisingly, the taste is very pleasant, with a little, fruity, distinctive hop note.

The aroma is fruity and a bit hoppy. The color is orange and it has a fine though collapsing head. The flavor starts on a hoppy note that combines nicely with the sweetness with notes of straws, that gives way to a slight bitter end. The palate is somewhat thin - but what to expect from a 3.8% ABV. This is a non-characteristic pale ale.

Beutiful red-brown color and a beutiful head. The aroma is sweet with notes of nuts and citrus. The flavor is very malty with weak roasted notes and nuts - is it münchner malt? The mouthfeel is thin - but that is natural with 3.3% ABV. A very nice beer. If I could get hold of this - it could be my favorite low-alcohol beer.

The aroma is very light malty with faint notes of straws. The color is golden, and it has a fine but disappearing head. It is rather bitter in the start. Do I detect brewing cereal? In the middle it turns into a filling simple malt flavor, to end on an OK dry bitterness.

Hazy golden color. Bread nose. Thin malt and bread flavor, too poor hop, prelude to a quite weak palate.

Light bronze. Aroma is lightish - hop, caramel. Palate is hoppy, showing moderate bitterness. Light body but firm. Enjoyable herbal bitterness...there could be more to this but its a reasonable dose of hops and would score very well on the overall impression if you were actually in Malta.

Cheers to omhper for hooking me up with the Farsons beers! Light copper colour, light mineral aroma with balsa wood and nuts. Nutty notes and light caramel and that's about it - a fairly quick and simple beer.

Very light colour. Grassy aroma - what little there is. Light body, hint of grass. Lots of water.
