An orange beer with a fine white head. The aroma is very malty with notes of flowers and hops. The flavor is malty sweet with a good hoppy end - though it has some metallic notes too which draws down.

(Bottle 30 cl) Comes as "AH Premium Pilsener". Pours a pilsener golden with a creamy, white head. Vague aroma of malt. Medium body with sweetish pilsener malt. Slightly sulphurous finish. An OK standard pilsener. 170406

33 cL can. Pours clear and golden yellow with a diminished white head. Mild cornish and bittered aroma. Cornish and bitter flavoured with a light acidic touch. Light cornish and dry into the finish.

Canned (thanks Christoph N.!). Yellowish golden colour, small white fluffy head. Aroma is grains, grass, some earth, a bit dusty malts as well as quite strange bitterness. Flavour is grass, bready malts, a bit metallic as well as grainy and earthy. The metallicness stays for quite a while.

Bottle. 5.2%. Dark golden colour. OK white head. Slightly acidic flavour, but drinkable.

Bottle @ Odense Tasting, September 2011. Pours clear golden with a small off white head. Straw and hay. A bit of sulfur. Thin and watery. Short end.

Botella. Clear golden, short white head. Sweet grainy and malty aroma. Fair mouthfeel. The flavour has a mild bitterness with grains and some malt. Mild bitter finish.

Can, bought @ Albert Heijn, Nijmegen. Pours a pale golden with a fine creamy white head. Mild aroma with hay and pilsner malts (doughy). Weak citric hops as well. Quite creamy mouthfeel, making it run down smoothly. Mild and rather sweet flavour with a touch of grassy bitterness. Far too sweet for my liking. Otherwise okay.

Golden with a nice head and the aroma has sweetness (yet fresh), malt and hops. The flavour is surprisingly full and smooth with notes of caramel, light fruit and a citrussy bitterness. It’s a really OK Dutch discount beer.
