Head is initially small, fizzy, white, fully diminishing. Body is clear light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (cereal, grain), lightly hoppy (herbs), with a hint of DMS. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter, slightly husky. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.

A fairly mellow pilsner with a reasonable bitterness. Drinkable but unexciting. Too thin.

Bottle, Eurostar Station, London. Mine was 5.2% ABV. Has a roasted malt flavor resembling coffee. Reminds me of Deibels Plato 13(?). Very good.

Blond with a small white head. Weak yeasty aroma. Simple bitter taste. Nothing more to say.

Had it from both bottle and can. I think like the other macro brewers, the bigger the company the more disappointing the product. The can is considerably worse than the bottle, but both fail to impress. Don't mention the product available from the tap in the UK either.

A simple pilsener with no originality nor interest. The aroma is grainy corn. Grassy taste with a weird aftertaste, eggs?

Boring and poorly executed pils. Such an easy style to do wrong, at least most of the ones Ive tried

Bottle. Although I generally love German beers, this lager was a major dissapointment. Both smell and tase reminded me of power food for cattle, Never again please.
