Bottle, 4.2%. Golden colour, fizzy white head. The flavour is quite bland, with a hint of sour rag. Otherwise clean, watery flavour.

Vague fruity and grainy aroma. Grainy flavor, no hopbitterness, not even fruity esters. Medium bodied. Just bland and boring. Please Grolsch, get back on the right track! Even the people in my village, who for the most part only drink Grolsch didn’t like this beer.

It took them 15 years to create this beer. I think I could do it in 2 seconds. Just put your glass under the water tap and fill it up. Oh ... but that wouldn’t creat a head with the only flavor found in this beer. So it took them 15 years to create a bitter foam on a glass of water. Quite an achievement. Doesn’t it have any positive things? Hmmm ... it makes your thirst go away.

Can: Clear, golden, bigger lacy and stable white head; clean sweet-grainy nose, perfumed by some lemony hops; very light bodied, light to moderate bitter-sweet flavour; short lemony-grainy finish. Not really bad.........

<i>Can 500ml 4% </i><br /> <b>Appearance: </b> Gold with hint of light amber of ripe corn , large froth bright , white head , sparse lace created. 3+.<br /><b>Nose </b> Sweet pale malt with light dusty hint and refreshing aromatic floral hops.6-<br /> <b>Flavor/Palate :</b> Medium-thin bodied with artificial like sweetness that’s sweet with out substance and body. Mineral watery end with , bitter slightly alcoholic aftertaste. What happened to those hops ? Light pale lager should be refreshing pleasure to drink , this one is not.
