From old tasting notes. Clear medium gold color. Bubbly white head that disappates quickly. Light corn syrup malt aroma. Faint grainy malt flavor. Little character other than the bubbles in the glass. Nothing much here.

33cl bottle at La Tabla, Tallinn. Pours hazy amber with a short-lived head. Modest fruity and wheaty aroma with some strange notes and hints of citrus and yeasty. Moderate sweet with rather mild flavours and a light acidity. Not too impressive, but drinkable enough. --- Beer merged from original tick of Immortal Beloved on 08 Jul 2017 at 20:51 - Score: 6

Bottle from Lupe Pinto. Appearance - golden with a nice fluffy head. Nose - sweetcorn and just an edge of butterscotch. Giving it the benefit of the doubt it seems to subside after a bit. Taste - light toffee and vegetables. Just a hint of something green to cleanse. Palate - light bodied. Creamy middle section. Could be fresher on the finish. Overall - not the worst international lager.

Bottle from Lupe Pinto. This one said 5.5%. Appearance - deep amber with a nice fluffy head. Nose - toffee but doing into molasses. Light nuts. Taste - more hazelnuts and toffee or molasses. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy middle section. The finish is fairly fresh considering. Overall - like it. Definite elements of doppelbock going on.

It has a really distinctive spearmint aroma with some biscuit, toast and nougat. That spearmint is more like peppermint in the mouth with grapefruit, honey, watermelon and loads of alcohol.
