I bought this from the LCBO because it was 6 pints for 10 bux. I was VERY surprised at just how good this beer is. Even though it is not on sale anymore, this is my new regular beer of choice.

Hey for the price it is okay. Asda (Walmart subsiduary) is selling this baby for 90pence for four cans. Good as a chaser with stronger stuff. Will be nice to chug on a hot Summer afternoon long session. Not as watery and weak as other 3per cent stuff. High marks from me as it is so easily drunk but not nasty stuff.

11/4/06: Bottle.
Light yellow body with a thin white carbonation ring. Nose has a slight lemon presence. Flavor is balanced slight hop/slight malt. Crisp finish. No skunking noted, which is always a plus.

Bavaria Holland Beer-12oz bottle-pours a big foamy white head that laces and yellow/gold color with effervescence. Aroma is plenty of citrus lime-grain. Taste is citrus lime-grain/light malt-bready, some Euroskunk. Taste gets a bit bland further in which is a shame. Mild carbonation.

500 ml can - "Co-Op Dutch Lager". Straw colour with creamy white head; good depth of flavour with lots of malt and hops; rather straightforward and surprisingly good.

toast, floral, cooked vegetables, woody, pale, hazy, minimal head, light sweetness, medium bitterness, lightly sour, light body, thin feel, lively, astringent,

at 8 something a twelve pack at the local shop in save. not bad. its to heiniekin what natty is to bud. a cheaper similar version of a product. too many other beers out there to try again. but worth a shot. not horrible.

Shared with the Philly gents- Pale yellow pour with thin white head. Light citrus hops. A beer that was un-offensive, simple but lacking real flavor.

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.

50 cl can, Sheffield, UK via Bargain Booze. Within the context of a 50p can of 3% lager. Pale gold, faint sweet aroma, maybe some caramel. Very subdued flavour, though not offensive. I didn’t mind it, though could have been the olives stuffed with chillies that influenced that.
