bottled. pretty mild for a pils, golden, no head, almost no bitterness and a curious lime finish

Think this was from a Rewe. Schwarz-rot-gold 500mL can (though the label defiantly goes with ’gelb’, which I’m sure some would find offensive. Thought the label can be excused for being excitable, eleven exclamation signs for eleven sentences, including the list of ingredients!) stamped 28.03.13. Nose is sweet and grassy. Pale yellow-golden body, very transparent with a creamy white head. Taste is much sweeter than necessary with some floral and grassy notes and a corny, corn-syrupy greasiness. Light body with low bitterness. Super straightforward, but also a little mealy. Not ready to play with the big boys, but fine for a canned German Pils to fling around.

no foam, no visible carbonation, colour of watery piss smells with poor malt and old socks, however not the worst funny hops, bitter but taste like old potatos, also old rug, light-medium bodied,

Pale yellow clear body with white tight head. Aromas hops , malts, grains. Palate thin with lively carbonation and mouth feel. Aftertaste sweet malts and medium short hops finish.

50 cl can @ Venlo.

Pours clear golden color with small head. Aroma of grass, grain and malts. Flavor is the same. Straightforward.

500 ml can. Neutral aftertaste. It’s not the best pils, but it’s one of the cheapest. Not bad, but not marvellous either. Middle range.

Golden color with small white head. Malty aroma. Dry malty flavor with some bitterness.

Pours yellow and clear with a medium head. Slightly bitter smell and taste. A bit grainy/malty. That’s basically it...boring.

(can) pours a clear yellow colour with a frothy white head. aroma of powdered sugar, herbal hops, light caramel, grass and straw. flavour is mostly the same, with a hint of cooked vegetables and an astringent bitter finish. light to medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation.

Can colored as the german flag. I think it is the same as this. IT is a crappy "pils" if you wanna call it that.

Canned. Clear golden, rich head. Unpleasant boiled vegetable aroma. Sweet and sugary, light-medium bodied. No hops, just sugar. Only a pilsener in the books of Carlsberg corporate marketing fools. In the real world it’s just another of the lousiest imaginable commercial lagers.
