Aug 18, 2008 Bottled 33cl. The nose is of vegetables. Quite tart. The taste is of vegetables, wax and malt. Low bitterness. Slightly metallic with a malt liquor edge. Drinkable, but otherwise poor.

Jul 4, 2008 500ml swing top bottle from Beers of Europe. Crisp carbonation. Cat pee hops. Clean, decent enough malt - slightly bready. Some soap in the finish. This is fairly average for a pale lager - a smudge more hops than the standard global lager, and a smudge less than typical for east Europe. I was impressed by the Hopfig Herb last year. Not so impressed with this.
