Small white head, fast gone, despite very lively carbonation, over bright golden beer. Perfumed, very obvious cooked corn (maize IS added here). Outspoken pilsner malt & maize. Oxydized mess, masking some malty sugars and more corn sweetness. Grist slickness, bit fizzy, empty finish. Ouch. Forst makes much better, and this ought to be a celebration beer... Ik vraag mij af waar al mijn landgenoten dit vonden, ik ben het waarempel in Toscane moeten halen, lol...

Clear golden blond coloured beer with lots of carbonation and a small white head. Special fruity and hoppy aroma. Medium sweet palate. Finish is fruity bitter and hoppy. Not bad.

...bottle. Not nearly as good as the kronen. Lacks body and flavor. Slight hop notes on the nose, with a weak, flavorless finish. Decent carbonation. but overly fizzy out of the bottle. Tastes too much like a commercial lager, not worth the price at all in the three pack.
