Pours golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma of dry malt. Taste has typical international lager notes. Palate is nondescript, but non-ascerbic. Good for a gluten free beer.

Bottle. Tastes like Heineken. Not that good actually. Straw colored. Bitter taste with metallic aftertaste. Nice head that didn’t last. Smelled like hops and chemicals.

Bottle. Way too much sulphites. Kind of nasty. Gold in color with a bunch of soda bubbles. Aroma is like an old apple barn. Not very good.

Bottle. Colored like a red wine. Soda bubbles. Taste and aroma is like a fruity, foul medicine. This stuff is awful.

Bottle. Gold with a very light pink color. Even though it does taste and smell like Apple and strawberry believe this brand has too much sulfites in it.

0.33 l bottle from Marbeilla, shared with my dad. Amber color, thin but long lasting white head. Malts dominated aroma and taste with a sweet overtune. Medium finish, and heavier body than expected. Decent brew.

Can at the hotel in Corralejo. Hazy golden, white head. All three fruits show both in aroma and taste, apple’s obviously dominating but the pear character’s also prominent. Big bodied (relatively), quite sweet but this is one of those rare occasions it doesnt bother me.
