Bottled. Bottle is Heineken look-alike. That gives a hint about the content maybe. Pale golden colour. Frothy head, rich at first, then slowly diminishing. Aroma is loaded with minerals, a bit skunky perhaps but no major off aromas. I sensed hops and minerals in the flavour. Mouthfeel is clean and lacks off flavours. Body is low, as is the bitterness, if any at all.

Bottled. The label is a total Heineken rip-off. Pale golden, brief medium sized head. Minerally aroma. Dry with clean mouthfeel. Grainy, soapy minerals dominate the flavours. Low-medium bitterness.

Blond color; a lot of small bubbles. Fizzy aroma, first an impression of corn, later it’s a bit pungent (citrus fruits or magnesia). Strange mouthfeel, mix of CO₂ and Nitrogen. Has some light malt; ends dry and bitter. Common, not bad.
