(bottle, 66cl) Clear, golden coloured hue with micro floaties and a mid-sized foamy white head. Grassy hoppy aroma with a moderately sweet and corny malty background. Sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with an almost crispy mouthfeel. Malty, slightly papery taste with grassy hops; quite dry and grassy hoppy finish with a corny malty sweetness. Drinkable (in Slovenia). 16.IX.09

Golden color, vanishing white head. Light sweet malty aroma. Honeyish, herbal hoppy flavor. A bit buttery,. Quite Czech-like pils. Ok for being from Slovenia, although not an earthshaking.

Golden color, mostly vanishing white head. Light herbal, woody aroma. Metallic flavor with odd barnyardish twist. Sweet maltyness. Quite a crap. Supermarket beer.

Eh, forgot to rate this one. Had it with ogivlado who brought it from Slovenia and shared it with me on 4.12.2009. (thanks!) Poured a pale golden/yellow body with a medium sized white head that went away slowly. Light grainy/corny nose. Some cardboardy maltiness and lame hop bitterness in the finish/aftertaste but without any proper hop taste. That’s it. Crap.
