Countbeer (1933) - Best of Eindhoven ohne Brauhaus, NETHERLANDS - APR 29, 2012
Can: Medium vast on top, airy on the bottom, white head, disappears slow, vast lacing on top of a clear golden yellow colored beer. Smell herbs, barley malts, alcohol, malty sweets.. Nasty smell. Taste is strong alcoholic, like alcoholic cleaner, barley malts, sweets, malty caramel, but mostly an annoying alcohol taste. Not good. Irritating bitter alcoholic aftertaste with some caramel herbs/spices. Low carbo, soft tingly mouthfeel, low to less medium body and a light watery texture. Bad stuff. Why the hell do they brew and sell this?

MrHangover (463) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - APR 10, 2012
Can 500ml. Pours clear golden with a white head on top. Lasts quite long, didn’t expect that. Metallic aroma, flavour is carbonated sweetness with some syrupy alcoholic aftertaste. Gave me a huge headache.

Not exactly a high gravity beer, but they’ve managed to preserve something of the taste of Amstel (not sure whether that was necessary) while increasing the alcohol. They bumped up the sweetness, a sort of brown sugary distraction, to disguise it.

A pretty typical inexpensive lager. Pours yellow, light body. Taste is a malty sweetness with a harsh and bitter aftertaste.

maupie (908) - Roosendaal, NETHERLANDS - NOV 19, 2011
After the beer was served in the glass there was found a lasting quantity wall adhesive white foam collar which was fine and even of structure. The beer also contained much carbonic acid in the glass. The beer has a clear golden and a sweet taste. The after tast of the beer is hoppy bitter with a malty touch . This beer smells to malt.
