Pours clear with pale golden colour. Dry, hoppy aroma with some grassy notes. A bit metallic and thin mouthfeel. Not very special but still a nice lager.

Bottled, 330ml, pasteurised. From Phil. Yellow straw with white head. On a quiet Monday night a rating turns up from the blue, strange. Standard eurofizz malty lager, although holds a certain sweetish malty biscuit flavour, thin on the palate, fast and slightly metallic finish. not the worst.

I tried this beer on January 4, 2007 after purchasing from the LCBO. The beer poured a translucent metallic gold colour with a generous white head. The aroma was slightly metallic as well, with a little malt character. The mouthfeel was watery with some carbonation. The taste was very grassy. Too grassy for my liking.

Serbian version.0,33 l. bottle. An OK, drinkable and refreshing beer, but tastes like every other global lager. Both malt and hops aromas, not so metallic - flavored as some lagers tend to be. Not bad, but uninteresting.

Aroma sweet and bready, pours straw yellow with small white head. gassy, smooth malt, sweetness offset by a little hop. Dry short finish. Okay - plain but drinkable enough.

50cl can. Pale yellow with a big white head, visible carbonation. Hops, sweet malt and lot of cooked vegetables in the aroma. Sweet and grainy, with some so-so hops in the finish. a little unbalanced toward the sweetness, not very bitter. Medium-light palate with medium carbonation. Overall, pretty bland and sweet, but goes down easily with no off flavors.
