Rated from memory of hundreds of bottles drank in 1997-2000-something (until the brand disappeared). Golden with white head. Bitter and sweet pils malt. Typical cheap pils taste but price/quality better in balance than some beers in upper or lower price ranges. Cool logo of a hunter with a dog.

Used to drink this all the time with my friends in highschool! We would drag crates of bottles to our frieds garage and get shitfaced while watching b-movies, smoking weed and making music. Maybe it was because of all the weed but the beer didn't seem to be that horrible and it always did the job. And damn was it cheap!

Tasted this years and years ago I believe from 50 cl cans. Bought it when I was still in my ’I want to drink as much as I can’ period. Since this was the cheapest can in the supermarket I probably bought at least 20 with some friends and we drank them all. Oh my, am I glad those times are years behind me now. Was it bad? Yes, but undrinkable? No. Cheapest or not, if it really was undrinkable clearly we would have bought something else, but it was a cheap industrial lager and it tasted that way.

Draught. 6.5% as Oranjeboom Bok 2001. Seemingly clear. Very dark brown colour with some red. Does taste aged, which I generally do not appreciate. Low carbonation, nice mouthfeel. Quite peppery flavour, but well-balanced. OK maltiness and some dried fruit, but the sherriness of aged beer overpowers most of it.

Bottled (BB 02/2006)
Dark brown, small tanned head. Strong metallic nose. Very sugary flavor, strong plastic and rye-bread flavor - typical low alcohol flavors. Dutch version of kvass.
