Can. A golden beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of malt, metal, and straw, while the flavor is sweet with notes of metal and malt.

UPDATED: JUN 13, 2005 (Botle 50 cl) Very pale, slightly hazy beer. Looks almost like a Belgian witbier. Creamy, stable head leaving laces on my glass. If this really is a lager, it’s really rather unusual because of it’s odd wheaty touch. Slightly sourish and quite fresh. According to the Aldaris website this is a lager made pale with some barley-starch. But all in all surprisingly nice. 160104

50 cL can. Pours clear and golden yellow with a lacing white head. Mild herbal hoppy aroma. Bitter and towards cardboardish flavoured. Medium dry and cornish finish. Simple and classic.

Bottled. Pale golden. Despite being only 4.7% the alcohol is evident in the aroma. Sweet and unclean with obvious notes of vegetables and unfermented wort. Low bitterness. Typical BBH beer...
