3/VIII/25 - 33cl flip-top bottle from a local supermarket, shared @ Schwarzwald holiday, BB: 3/I/26 16:11 (2025-735)

A little cloudy bright yellow beer, big aery irregular white head, unstable, falls down immediately, just a little adhesive. Aroma: oh my, lots and lots of lemonade aroma’s, super juicy, zesty, freshly squeezed lemons, nothing else. MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: lots and lots of lemon, zesty, sweet and sugary, lemonade, gentle bitterness, a bit metallic. Aftertaste: sweet, sugary, soft acidity, lemonade, fruity, all lemon, too sweet for me, but it is what it is. Sometimes I feel I like alcohol-free radlers better, as they are often less sweet and sugary?
