500ml bottle. Pours clear gold with a small white head. Aroma is malt, herbal hop. Taste is light sweet, herbal, malt. Medium bitter finish. Light to medium bodied. Didn’t expect this to be so decent.

Can at home. Deep golden colour, thick white head. Nose is grassy, herbal bitterness. In taste it’s somewhat sophisticated, still bitter, but in a pleasant way. Closes with long bitterish finish, has light and crisp body and average carbo. Nice table beer.

Can at home. Deep, clear golden pour, thick white head. Nose is sweet malty with a metallic touch. Taste is sweet first then turns to surprisingly bitter, but in an unpleasant, medicine-like way. Light to medium body, average carbo. Meh.

Can at home. Pours cola colour with thick, quickly disappearing head. Nose is light roasted notes, faint malty touch. Taste is watery coffee, light sweet malts, some chocolate. Surprisingly long lasting, somewhat sweet finish, light body, average to lively carbonation.

Clear yellow, large white head. Light fuel alcohols, with some light breadiness, and grassy hops. Much better than I expected, this is decent. A pleasant surprise.

0.5l can from Tesco Kamenné Namestie Bratislava, shared with Hrabren. Clear golden body, off-white head. Creamy, buttery, bit grainy, somewhat herbal aroma. Lean, dry taste, caramelly, syrupy maltiness and a big hoppy bitterness. I mean, they are trying to do something better here, but it's still very macroish.

Bottle via Tesco. Med-thin body, med-high carbonation. Rather high bitterness, but an unpleasant earthy quality to it. Oxidated to hell and back. You get used to it after a while, but it is still bad and rather hard to drink.
