Light grassy aroma. Brassy gold color with an impressive white head. Medium body with moderate, kind of fizzy, carbonation. It neary turns things creamy. The flavor is rather dry, and there is some bitter. After a bit the mouth gets an astringent impact. It has sugars, but not much. It’s about as dry as lager can get, I suppose. Drinkable.

Bottle. Pale straw color with a small white head. Sweet malt and grain aroma. Flavor is dry malt with too much sugar added. LIngering sweetness. I just didn’t like this one at all.

0.33L bottle. Version brewed in prague. The best thing i can say about this beer is that is technicaly correct, and has no major faults. But it also has no major attributes. The most boring beer i had the "dubios" pleasure of drinking for a long time.

Clear golden with plenty of carbonation and an active head. Burnt rubber, metal, some grain. Let’s see what this refreshing new style tastes like...Oh, nothing. Very tasteless (can something be very tasteless?) Watery, I guess some...wait, no, nothing. Thin body. Absolutly no finish. Style free = taste free.

Bottle. This version is brewed in Prague. Clear golden lager with a small white head. Light aroma of malt with a bit of corn. Very light in flavor, but with some dryness (as the name suggests), that make this beer a bit refreshing. Light-bodied.

A gold lager with a thick white head. Aroma of crisp malts and rice, a bit of burned corn. In mouth, a light sweet malt, with clean finish, not offensive, and thirst quenching. Bottle from singles bin at LCBO.

Pours clear golden with a large, foamy white head. Aroma was swet malt. Thin, bubbly mouth. Taste is metallic at first, then fading into a very light malt. Crisp, and refreshing, but completely lacking in the taste arena. Meh.

Can. Pours deep brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma is roasted malts, chocolate, and molasses. Body is watery. Flavor of roasted coffee, sweet malt, cocoa, and somewhat smokey. FInish is a little bitter. Definitly want more body in this brew. Not too bad, though.
