A golden beer with a thick white head. The aroma is malty and strawy, combined with a slitght metallic note. It is much better from the glass, since it started out skunked when I sniffed the bottle right after opening. The flavor is slightly malty, leading to a boring hoppy dry end - the dryness is due to the lack of alcohol - and is quite boring.

Bottled. Bright golden, brief head. Raisiny wort aroma. Sweet with clean mouthfeel - the heavy wort flavour dominates completely. No bitterness. Iβve got nothing positive to add on this beer.

Clear golden with a skunked hop and corn syrup aroma and flavour. Quick, watery, gutless finish. Pretty lousy, what with the skunk.

Bottled. Golden beer with a very sweet and sugary aroma and a weekly mild flavour with a little dryness. Overall a typical beer of the type.

A "bit" aged bottle :) Golden color, small creamy head. Fruity, a bit of apple juice in the nose. Sweetish fruity, malty flavor, even slightly sugary. Soft palate. When I lived in Lebanon, it was said that recipe came from Amstel.

280 ml green bottle, a gift from chris_o, to add another "beer country" to my list. ABV was 4.1%. Thanks, Chris! Donβt expect me to search all over Lebanon for their "great" beers in the future, though. The whiff of fresh skunkiness when opening the bottle is actually the best thing with this beer. Pale golden colour, fizzy, low head that disappears rapidly, little lacing. In the glass the aroma is sickly, soap and rotting vegetables. The flavour (as far as there is any) is grainy and utterly forgettable. Soapy aftertaste. This beer might save your life if you happen to be stuck in the Lebanon heat, anywhere else itβs just a bad joke.
