Pretty poor, cheap Dutch lager. What I expected. Overwhelming bad corn flavor.

Can (from Co-op as "Dutch lager", BB 11/2010). Clear golden color, small white head. Mild pear aroma. Light fruity pear flavor. A bit grainy. Totally useless.

Canned. Pale yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grains, some malts and mild notes of the grass. Flavour was quite much the same. Mediocre. Not totally hopeless, but not good either.

Mild sweet aroma. Pale amber with little head. Flavour is corn, no malt or hops detectable. Medium bodied. Finishes cornflake. A curious beer, and not really to my taste, but okay, I guess.

99p can labelled ’Lynx Pilsner’, but reading between the lines, this is what’s in my glass. Clear yellow with a dying head of fluff. Sweetcorn, blade of grass and peanut butter aroma. Once warm I can detect Munich-like biscuity pale malt and herbal hop traces, and something lemony. Really. Loads of sweetcorn and cornflake beyond, no hop or malt flavours discernible. Sweet and adjuncty, but no off notes to justify tipping it. Cornflake aftertaste. Nowhere near shit enough to make it into my bottom 100. Refreshing and brainless.

Clear yellow pour, low head and lace, rising bubbles. Skunky corny aroma. Sour, overwhelming corn flavor, light carbonation, somewhat phlegmy mouth, this is over all a pretty gross beer. Disappointing for a green bottle Dutch beer.
