Tastes a lot like Heineken, but a little less skunky and a little drier. Barely perceptable fruit aftertaste which is kind of interesting. I paid $2.25 for a bottle of this, I think it was overpriced. Also bottle is 11.2oz, not 12oz. $6.99 for a six pack would be more in line. Aroma is weak. Also I think it could use a touch more carbonation. Overall a pretty decent lager for a hot summer day. Not too sweet, not too bitter. But I’m disappointed with the price and the bottle should be 12oz!

Dec 19, 2009 Bottle. Clear orange with nice creamy head. Aromas whilst rather subdued are slightly floral. Flavours are very thin. Finish is slightly dry and bitter. OK beer.

Dec 15, 2009 This is a beer that i drink and dont hate...but there is nothing special in the body, taste, palte or mouthfeel. Its not horrible it just doesnt bring anything exciting to the table. Did drink a lot of it in Greece :).

Dec 15, 2009 330ml bottle. Straw pale gold hue, nice but quickly diminishing white frothy head, minimal lacing. Faint aromas of biscuit, cereal, grain, grass, hay. Short light sweetness, quickly followed by dry bitterness, slightly sour. Very dry after-taste, fizzy carbonation, thin watery texture. I used to really like this beer but that was when all I had to compare to was NZ mass produced beers, still this is one of the better "regular beers" that is on offer, though that isn’t saying much.

Dec 6, 2009 This is what I use as my bar to compare other beers (better than Stella is a decent/good beer. Worse than Stella is a disappointing beer). By all means a standard euro-lager. Good carbonation, thin body, and a touch of sulfur. Prominent steel flavour. Overall it’s refreshing and adequate when there’s nothing else on offer... even if it doesn’t live up to its ’Belgian’ reputation (at least when consumed outside of Belgium).

Nov 25, 2009 Bottle. Poured pale yellow with a thick white head. Aroma had notes of sweet malts and some grain and cereal. Flavor was sweet with a somewhat unpleasant metallic taste.

Nov 25, 2009 This is the beer you drink when there is only macro brewed American swill lagers. In the same mold as Pilsener Urquell, just not as tasty. Bready and yeasty in flavor, this rare Belgium lager is soft and mild. I could drink these all day long, but then again, why the hell would I? I guess even in Belgium, there are "men" who are afraid of flavor. Not a bad beer, but not a top notch one either.
