Bottled (as Magnus Premium Lager Beer), thanks Nightfall! Bright golden with rich, coarse head. Grassy hops and slight butter upfront. Dry with clean, hard mouthfeel. Good amount of grassy hops gives s flavour similar to many German pilseners, the hard edgy malt makes it more like Warsteiner, Becks etc, rather than any of the quality stuff. Finishes with salty bitterness.

exists as bottle and as tap. brewery has confirmed to me that the beer is the same. this rating an average of the bottled and the tap version, which doesn’t taste exactly the same. tap at spirit lounge, chania. after having eaten my way through a fisher pilsener , and a pils 101 in the harbor, i was very pleased by this one. for one, it actually tastes good. clar orange, small white head. faint aroma, citrussy, mild. flavor is dry, slight citrussy, slight spicy from herbs, delicately hopped, awesome thirst quencher. --- Beer aliased from original tick of 4 Seasons Premium Lager on 29 May 2025 at 21:04 - Score: Appearance - 5 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 5.5 | Texture - 5 | Overall - 4. Original review text: bottle from supermarket in stalis, crete.
tangy but also flowery and almost soapy hoppy aroma. alc. bitterness.
malts add a quite nice fuilbodied malty flavor, but the hops are sort of flat and tasteless bitter like cheap european hops, they mix in with an alcohol bitterness, making the end not that nice. overall the closest resemblance i can think of is pale mexcican lager only more alcohol.
however, the malty part of the brew is above average, the hop balance just doesn't make it.

(On tap) Pilsener golden with a small, creamy head. Lightly sweet malt and some notes of corn. Very vague, bitter finish. In truth no great beer. 311005
