Golden color, small white head. Malts and corn (or rice) in the nose. Watery, sweet corn-malty flavor. Quite flat mouthfeel. Much better than domestic Stella, which I had in Cairo in 1995 ... but it doesn’t mean that this is a good beer.

Clear yellow color, short frothy head. Aroma of grass, some hop, hay, some malt. Bit dry grassy taste. Typical mediterranean pale lager. Not bad when it’s hot outside.

Can. Clear, pale yellow-golden with a small, white head. Weak aroma with grain and bread-notes. Malty and grainy flavor - bad! Watery body. A really bad one. (060929)

Canned. Crappy foul corn aroma. Sweet and heavy on off flavours. I detect metal, vegetables, fat and blood. Oh, so Heineken owns the brewery? That might explain it... The best use for this beer is to water the desert.
