Canned. A light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is very light - what is there is sweet malty. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of metal, leading to a dry end.

Unbearably sweetish and bland, lacking any hint of bitterness as well as any other redeaming feature one can think of.

Can, 4.6%. Mild grainy aroma. Clear pale yellow colour. Very small white head. The flavour is OK malty with a little chalky note. Standard macro lager, but less repulsive than most.

Bottled. Yellow coloured with big white head. Malt and hops in aroma. Very smooth taste compared to aroma. Mainly malt and hops in taste. Semi-bitter taste. Disappointment compared with other Saku’s I’ve had.

Harsh, grainy, yet somehow bland as well. I didn’t know you could do that. Anyway, there are thousands of swill-ass mainstream lagers out there and this is in the bottom five.
