Can 50cl. @ home.
Clear medium yellow color with a large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, toasted, fruit sweet, light hoppy, grass. Flavor is moderate sweet and light bitter with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20081119]

A yellow beer with a huge white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of straw. The flavor is sweet malty and grainy with a lightly bitter end over a thin body. Nothing wrong, just boring.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pilsener golden with a small head. Weak, hoppy nose. Sweetish, malty body balanced with just enough bittering hops. Very, very ordinary and completely uninteresting. 110600

50 cL can. Pours slight cloudy yellow with a diminished white head. Sweet malty and light spiced. Sweet malty at first with a mild spice note and light acidty following into a mild spiced and bitter dry finish. Mild metallic note in the far finish.

Plae yellow. Spicy aroma. A bit thin and sharp. Low bitterness. Slightly fruity. but not a lot of flavours. Inoffensive.

Canned. Golden colour, huge foamy head, lacing. Malty and hoppy standard lager aroma. Sweet malty flavour withdomr fruitish hints. A bit hoppy finish. Fruitish aftertaste.

Pale yellow colour with a big white head. Hoppy aroma with notes of straw. Malty flavour with notes of hops. Aftertaste of hops. Ordinary pale lager.

Can, 4.8% as Amsterdam Premium Lager. Bready aroma. Clear yellow colour. Typical macro lager. Not much to say.

33cl can: Thanks to Mette. Pours pale piss yellow with a small white foam. Quite watery. Notes of hay & grain! No off flavours. A typical foreign pale lager!

Interesting - I thought I got some corn syrup flavours, weeicemon also picked up adjunct notes, yet this beer claims to be all-malt. It otherwise is an inoffensive, full gold lager.
