Commercial Description:
Cisk Lager, launched in Malta in 1928, is a golden-coloured, bottom-fermented lager with a distinctive and well-balanced character. Its rich hop aroma and pleasant bitterness, combined with a mild astringency, make it an outstanding thirst-quencher. Its alcohol content is 4.2%. Cisk Lager was awarded top prize in the International Lager Category at the 1995 Australian Beer Awards and was presented with the Pfizer Food Science Trophy for the lager obtaining the highest number of votes in the same competition.

Can from a buddy of mine who picked it up at Sam’s (for sale). Poured a light yellow with fluffy head. Smell is grassy and malty. Taste is typical of a lager with a bit more bite. Finish is dirty and nasty. from malta? where is malta?

11.2oz can (2009) into a plastic hotel glass. You know, my brother said he got this for $1.99 a six-pack, and it could be worse. Pours a creepy fake yellow with a small off-white head with not much aroma - typical pale lager stuff. The flavor tastes distinctly German lager to me, same malts and hops probably... or at least along those lines. Really could be worse for the price!

Can 33 cl. Courtesy of Pinball. Pours a slightly hazy pale yellow with some floating impurities and a white head. Sweet aroma of brewing cereal. Medium body, a little malt and a surprisingly decent hoppiness. 161209

Canned. Thanks Anza! Clear golden colour with frothy white head. Pale malty aroma. Moussy mouthfeel, pretty malty with little hops noticed, and they’re kind of flavourful and outspoken for a pale lager. Not the average pale lager here, with elegant flavouring hops, and the same goes for the bittering, giving a solid but not overly bitterness.

250 ml bottle. From Malta. HHOK blind tasting. Thanks Jukka.
Clear golden colour with frothy average white head. Fruity malty aroma with some hoppiness but also some wet cardboard. Maltiness and bitterness in flavour. Bitterish aftertaste. Not bad for a Lager.

[Bottle] Pours a clear yellow color with a decent looking white head and good lacing. Some corn and light grains in the aroma. Not a lot going on in the taste as well. Somewhat dry and grainy with a musty finish. High carbonation level. Light bodied. Ehh... about what I expected.

On tap in Malta. Clear golden color. Some fruits and bread in the aroma. Not much of a taste, typical insipid Eurolager.
