Bottle in Berlin... not one of the best beers I had, but an interesting and typical German lager. Enjoyable, but not a must.

Bouteille. Couleur jaune pâle, claire, mousse mince qui laisse un petit lacet. Arôme de grains, de houblons floraux. Goût malté mais quand même bien dominé par le houblon, légère amertume. Un peu mince, effervescence moyenne. Correcte.

This lager pours a pale yellow colour with a rocky white head. To the nose, corn light malt and sweet... The first taste is off and very watery. Slightly bitter hop flavour. Hoppy/corn flavoured palate. Almost a perfume aftertaste.

500 ml can: Smells like a good honest brew. Wet and refreshing with a welcome dry finish. Not something to dance in the streets about but a solid beer nonetheless.

50 cl can. Ligth golden color, vanishing white head. Not much to say - OK pilsener that would have been better with more bitterness.

Can, 330 ml Pours a clear golden color. Medium white airy head that diminishes quickly and leaves a tiny lacing. Aroma is weak but crisp, malty with notes of grains, straw and a hint of herbs. Some slight metallic traces too, sadly. Flavor is a bit herbal, with german hops in the back and grainy, cereally touches. Reasonably bitter. Not great, not bad either. Light body, refreshing but simple, unexciting. High carbonation, herbal finish. Watery texture. A generic german pale lager with some hops.

50 cl can. A very standard German lager, unlikely to offend anyone. Pure and clean taste, and a little bitterness in the tail. Boring.

in Can 500 ml., Yellow pale beer, typical standard European beer. Very weak and rapid head. It is something watery. Weak aroma with something of yeast and sweets. The typical bitter flavor of the hop, which in this case remains enough. Current beer
