5.6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
Bottled. An unclear orange beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet wheaty, while the flavor is sweet with notes of both wheat and banana, but the body is thin.

Medium white head does not last. Hazy opaque yellow body. Papery fruity aroma. Dry sharpish chalky taste, vaguely fruity. Somewhat watery. Dry papery watery aftertaste with hints of banana. Very boring! (0.5l bottle from Rewe supermarket, Leipzig.)

(Draught at Oliver Twist, Stockholm, 9 Oct 2007) Golden yellow colour with rocky white head. Malty, bready nose with notes of grassy hops. Malty, clean taste with white bread and grassy hops in the finish. Some malt sweetness lingers in the background. Hardly exciting, but solid and reliable pilsener.

Big offwhite shiny lasting head. Attractive yellow body with carbonation. Milky rubbery grainy aroma with notes of straw and sharpish hops. Sweetish straw and caramel taste with papery notes. Very smooth and clean mouthfeel. Dry grassy hop aftertaste. This is a lot better than most alcoholic mass-market lagers, and the whole taste experience seems very classy. Probably the best non-alcohol beer I’ve had. (0.5l bottle from Rewe supermarket in Leipzig.)

Bottle. Dark brown beer with a strong head. The aroma is lightly roasted and malty with a hint of fruit. The flavour is very dry and roasted with a long dry finish. Overall an average dry/malty beer.

01/10 0.33 l bottle. Poured golden body with medium head. Aroma...standard stinking NA’s, metallic with sweet and worser. Taste follows aroma, but it’s unfortunately watery which makes it relatively drinkable. Still, I couldn’t finish it.

01/10 0.5 l can. Pours pale yellow body with big creamy head going away at relatively slow pace. Citrus and apple hops in aroma. Some malts, present, too. Dusty and sweetish taste. Bitter, but nothing too much. Medium carbonated with oily texture it has long sweetish palate. Only if there is no so much sweetness. Average beer, nothing more.

01/10 0.33 l bottle. Pale green body with medium-bigger head going down at medium pace. Aroma of lemonade and nothing more. Very light flavor and too sweet. Finish short, lemonade. Only lemonade. Poor flavored beer.

01/10 0.33 l bottle. Pours deep red body with short living medium head. Aroma of cola mixed with lager, I couldn’t say it is bad at all. Flavor not so good, fine, it is refreshing and drinkable, but too much cola is felt inside. Finish quite short, sharp cola dominated. I was nicely surprised by the combination, but this is too small amount of beer.
