355mL bottle share (courtesy of Raivo) @ Parc Mansfeld. Almost has a sweet amber lager quality in the taste, cereal malt, simple. Decent.

Fles gekregen van Sander, geprobeerd met Roelzie. Het is een helder goudgeel bier met een dun wit schuim wat snel weg ebt. Het heeft een aroma van mout. De smaak is moutig en vlak.

Bottle, medium stable creamy head, clear deepish gold colour, light honey , bready malt, hint of candy and fruity sweet and sour, light bitterness. Surprisingly nice and balanced.

From backlog! Bottle, shared with, among others, Bergstaden. Golden with white head. Malts, hops, yeast, sweetness, boring.

33 cl sturdy green bottle, served in a Teku glass. A dark golden to light amber slightly hazy pour with an off-white head. Little retention. Aroma is sweet malt, cookies, porridge and -interestingly- a hint of chili peppers. Quite sweet onset; medium to low body, lacking enough acidity (but nothing clumsy nor terrible.) Not too bitter nor too long. Bland, but drinkable.

355ml bottle as Via Saigon Export procured at Lidl for the princely sum of 99p. I opted to serve this cold and straight out of the bottle. I would imagine it yellow/gold/amber with a white head. The aroma is rather sweet, sugary, rich tea biscuit, grain and bread & butter pudding. The taste is crispy dry, snappy, pretty sweet, sugary, grainy, biscuit, grass, straw and dull herbal accents with a dry finish. Average body and average, prickly carbonation. Absolutely ok. Perhaps a bit sweet, but drinks fine when cold. I've had a lot worse.
