A new category to compete with Lawnmower Beer. I call it Housework Beer. Worked up a sweat with the vaccuum and grabbed this single from the fridge. Green bottle. Strong grassy aroma. Dark amber. Pretty straight forward clean grain and grass flavour. Decent hop level.

Alfa Hellenic beer has a thick, white head and a clear, golden appearance. Carbonation is medium to high, and a nice bit of lacing is present down the glass. The aroma is of fine barley, and a tad of a hop smell can be picked up. Taste is mostly barley, and it is balanced, with a decent hop back end. Mouth-feel is light to medium, and Alfa finishes refreshing and not as dry as American lagers. Overall, I enjoyed this, and was glad it was not skunked (green bottle).

Bottle. Pours a deep golden, with an average white head. aroma is skunky, grassy hops and slightly toasty cereal. Flavour is much the same, with the pale malts standing out notably compared to North American pale lagers. This reminds me of what Heineken used to be, 20 years ago when it was still an import, before it became a derivative shitty contract-brewed fuck-up of a pale lager. This gave me nostalgia and satisfaction, which is more than I can say for 95% of the pale lagers I’ve had.

Draught. Pours clear yellow, with decent and durable white head, with faint lacing. Sweet hops on the nose, and zesty on the palate. Pleasant enough beer.

Atenas, quarter of Plaka. It seems the Heineken - it only knew later that it is produced by the Heineken. Watery. .................................................. bairro de Plaka, buteco da esquina. Parece a Heineken - por sinal, soube só depois que é produzida pela Heineken. Aguada............................................

bottle at greektown in detroit, mi. out of all the greek beers they had (maybe 5?) i picked this one because the "A" on the label was the easiest thing to read. i expected it to be a crappy greek heineken, but i was surprised that it had a nice malty body. very clean, one of the better pale lagers i’ve had. i would certainly drink this again!

500ml bottle. Poors very pale golden with no head. Aroma is grassy, hoppy and lemon. Grassy to start, with a crisp, slightly hoppy bite.
