330ml bottle outside at a restaurant in Aachen-Mitte. Good looking with a firm white tophead over a clear, warm golden body, fair lacing. Modest fresh smell of pale malts, hints of grass. Similar taste of grassy hops and pale malts. Short ending. Ok with a spiced curry disk for lunch (Aachen, 26.02.2026)

Not a great beer, a typical product of macro brewery, boring premium with an industrial sweetness, some malt and hop, watery, 19.05.19, at Epalinges, finding this beer at one Asian shop, Sallaz, Lausanne.

Thanks Andrea for this bottle. Drinking this one, yesterday, at home, relax, at night, inside due to too many cockchafer outside. Nothing special, industrial lager, syrup of glucose, industrial sweetness, grainy, malty, extract of hop, so-so, 28.06.23, at Epalinges.

Can @ Madam Saigon restaurant in Rotterdam. Decent standard macro lager. Grain and grassy, slightly floral hops. OK complementing the Vietnam dishes, but nothing special.
