Can
Blond color. Aroma of cheap beer, and something very light, close to the ammonia. Common taste, corn, some residual sweetness; medium bitterness, the final is quite dry.

Pours a clear lightly carbonated golden with a thin ring of wispy white head. Papery grassy faint earthy noble hoppy aroma has a touch of soap. Body starts with a bland, earthy grainy dry flavor. Not much going on here at all taste or aroma-wise.

Yellow golden beer with a bubbly dissipatting head. Faint malt and corn aroma, with some wet dog thrown in. Fresh malt and perfumy, biscuity qualities noticed. Decent bodied.

(Can) Poured a medium white head and a deeper golden body colour. Heavy carbonation. Corn malt with a wet dog aroma. Very sweet for a pilsner. Not too bad, the flavour is crisp and fresh with undertones of biscuit. Thanks Luc for sharing this!
