At last the elusive Alfa, supplier of half the menu boards in Greece. Green, white and gold tin. Pours quite rockily. White sugar and metal. Bile and copper. Unconvincing chemical bitterness. But much nicer on tap.

0,33 l can. Just as expected - a refreshing, but very boring lager. Herbal and citric hops aromas, low malt presence. Dry and sour aftertaste. Luckily, without much metallic aromas.

Pours a clear golden color with little-to-no head. Aroma is skunky and bitter. Flavor is the same way. 11.2 oz. bottle.

Bottle from Jacob’s Liquor near Denton, TX. Pours a clear gold with minimal lasting white fizzy head. Aroma of skunky grass....Flavor has a skunky hop taste as well and would have been a horrible beer if the crisp clean maltiness did not come through, actually, this is similar to a Heineken. Mouth feel is light with very high carbonation. Over all, it isn’t a BAD beer.
