Hop malt aroma. Clear yellow colour with fair head and lacing. Bitter malt hop flavour. Flat palate.

Alla spina al Bar Cavo di Via Balbi; aroma maltato e dolce, sapore conforme corpo molto acquoso. Abbastanza dissetante e neanche terribile per il suo genere.

Had a few times while in Italy. Not good even after a long bike ride up and down mountains.

Fairly ho-hum but not a total disaster. Standard gold amber in colour, big head upon pouring, leaves some ok lacing. Nose and palate are essentially malt driven but flavours come across as corn-like and stale. Some bitterness on the finish.

Pours straw yellow with a yeasty head. Fairly good for a somewhat-strong lager. Quite pleasant malty aftertaste.

Bottle. Soft grainy aroma. Grainy sweetish flavor, even a bit sugary. Just a hint of hops. Sugary but also light hopbitter aftertaste. Drinkable, nothing more.

Bottle 0.33L. Clear yellow body with an average, frothy, white head, mostly diminishing with a fair lacing; lots of tiny particles. Light-to-moderate malty and hoppy aroma (herbal, maybe flowers) which disappears almost immediatly. Flavour is lightly sweet with a moderate bitter character which becomes a bit stronger in the average lasting finish. Light-to-medium body with a watery texture; lively carbonation. Not bad for this kind of beer.

Nice medium malt aroma with a bit of grape?. Slightly hazy brassy gold color with a white head that comes and goes. Leaves tatters of lace. Medium bodied. Starts with light grape, accompanied by medium dark malt. At least it’s medium compared to Bud. The finish has a touch of bitter to balance the malt, but that grape aspect lingers. Pretty decent for a "pale" lager.
