50 cL bottle. Pours golden yellow with no head. Slight grassy nose, dry. Carbonated mouthfeel. Flavour is grassy with a slight caramel malt note. Finish is dry hoppy. Ordinary.

Bottel.50cl. What a let down, it contain nothing that Characterise a good lager, very bland.

It disappoints. Watery and bitter. Metallic end......................................Decepcion Aguada e amarga. Final metálico.

Bottle, 4.6%. Old bready aroma. Clear pale yellow colour. Big white head. The flavour is better than the aroma. Nicely citric with a little malt. Only a hint of sewer.

Bottle, Off-license (cheap!), Berlin, Germany.
Palest, lemony yellow body, bright with huge bubbles that stuck to the sides of the glass. Head, well, didn’t appear at all but it did manage a few dregs left on the glass. Soft boiled eggs and peppermint aroma with a little gritty, pale malt. Soapy and fizzy, pasty malt palate. Ultra light bodied with a harsh finish that was crisp beyond belief. Tasted U.S. macro lagers with more life. A touch of capsicum and celery develop, shining through just before the swallow. Touch of dull malts if you search hard. Not good at all. Worse than a bottle of spritzig wasser. (50cL, BBE 01/07)

Bottled. Clear, golden, effervescent pour with an explosive, disappearing white head. Aroma of malt and a bit of bread. Tastes of spice, grain, some hops. A little sweetness, a little bitterness. Balanced, good, unexceptional.
