Originally rated March 2006. Bought 2 for $3.00 (CND) at the Dépanneur Rapido in Aylmer, Quebec. Pours a clean golden colour with some dynamic carbonation. The fluffy white head is decent in size, has good long retention and leaves thick and uneven lacing. Average malt nose. Says ingredients are water, malted barley and hops, but I smell some corn. The mouthfeel is thin. At least it does not taste like corn. More like grass, like some of those German lagers. Nothing special, but not a bad brew... especially for the buck.

Rating #529, can from Rema1000

Medium appearance, light yellow and ok head. Aroma is fresh malts, spicy hops, but a bit indistinct. Quite standard pale lager taste, but very fresh, crisp and maybe more "clean" than a lot of other lagers. Light bitter finish, almost no sweetness. A refreshing lager. Medium palate.

Can.Pours pale yellow with a big white head.Aroma of yellow apples, malt and fruitiness.Flavor is sweet and somewhat grassy with some bitterness and fruitiness.Medium to thin body, average carbonation.

330 ml can in Niger. It is crazy what you can find at the little stands at every corner here. Could not see the pour had if from the can. The best part about this beer is its smooth and inoffensive approach to your mouth on a hot day. The worst part of it is its indistinctiveness. Moch harder to find than Heineken, this Holland import is actually as good if not better than Heineken, in my opinion. Not bad. Then again, not very memorable either.

Yellow and clear. Has a white head, fully lasting. Faint bad aroma, odd citrus, faint rotten egg. Flavor starts light sweet and finish light bitter. Dry texture. Lively carbonation.
