Bottle. Alc. 4.1% Clear medium yellow color with a small to average, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, light bread, honey. Flavor is light to moderate sweet with a short to average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. (101107)

A hazy orange beer with a disappearing white head. Both the aroma and flavor are dominated by corn, which lends a sourness to the beer, while giving it a thin body.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of Rasmus H. Clear golden with a white head. Clean malt aroma. Medium body, clean malts and an edge of cardboard. Dry, lightly hoppy finish. Quite a decent Pils. 261009

Decent flavour, some hop balance. For a Middle Eastern lager, it’s surprisingly respectable.
