Bottle 0,5 ltr: Clear golden colored brew with an very dry bitter taste, hints of fruitiness, breadiness, grassy hops but gets watery at the end. First half of the bottle didn't noticed it was an low-alcohol beer.

(Can, 0.5l, from a supermarket, 20250510) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had honey, grain, grass and alcohols. Palate was medium bodied and dry with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, honey, alcohols, grain and bitterness. Aftertaste had honey, sweetness, alcohols, grain and bitterness. A boozy brew with clean flavours.
