Description
United Dutch Breweries in Breda was created when the Belgian Interbrew closed the Breda Oranjeboom brewery in 2004, which it had taken over in 1995. Oranjeboom's export department carried out a management buy-out and continued independently with Oranjeboom's brand portfolio, which was acquired from Interbrew. The beers are not brewed anymore in Breda but elsewhere.

Can from a supermarket. Some hops with biscuity malts, orange, somewhat sugary fruits. Moderate bittersweet. Tastes like an amped up hoppy Imperial Lager. Cheap beer which unfortunately translates to the taste.

Can from LCB, 6 months past BBE. Clear gold, big white foam which settles well. Aroma of banana and bready malt, light spice. Flavour is more grainy and sweet than expected but has smoother caramel notes. Also some light fruit banana esters but a rather acrid herbal bitterness with kicks in the back of the throat. Medium bodied, nice fine to soft carbonation, some alcohol warmth on the way down - this bit is fine. Not the most flavoursome of blondes but its not a bad beer overall.

Bottle from LCB. Clear gold with white head. Aroma of grains, sweetcorn, hint of grass. Taste of sweet malt, corn, some grassiness. There is a decent bitter bite to it and carbonation is about right and not overly gassy. There are light worse mass lagers out there.

Can from Home Bargains. Semi hazy gold, nice white top. Aroma is somewhat lagery with grains and vegetation but also has a sweet fruity citrus and stone fruit. Taste has a slight butterscotch thing going on with some tropical zest, pepper, tangy stone fruit. Light to medium bodied, soda like carbonation. Despite flaws there is a good balance between sweet and bitter and its still sessionable as intended.
