Bottled. Pale blonde with a thin head. Aroma of grains. Watery, lightly malty, with a strong industrial feeling. Not good.

This is unexciting. It’s not exactly objectionable but it’s nothing I would buy again. It about Heniken level.

Un bicchiere assaggiato a pasto (lasagne al forno); che noia! Uguale a centinaia di altre lager europee. ENGLISH TEXT HERE A glass tasted at lunch (lasagne al forno); a boring beer, the same as many other lagers.

Another bottle, to edit quite simple rating:
0,25l bottle which poured golden colored body with thick creamy head. Quite typical lager aroma of bread and citrus hops with light malts. Nice flavor, quite full bodied for the style with low bitterness... moderately carbonated, relatively oily textured. Good palate, with nice relatively long finish. Nothing too special but surely one of the best commercial pale lagers.

15-Aug-07 (12 oz bottle: BevMo in La Jolla, CA) Dark straw in color with a slight haze, but even immediately after the pour, barely any carbonation bubbles rise through the beer. So, not an especially impressive appearance to this beer, but it does have a white, rocky, fluffy head that leaves plenty of lace near the top of the glass. Grainy, vaguely bready malt aroma doesn’t provide much inspiration to take a sip. The bready malts taste fairly sweet and become almost honey-like on the palate toward the finish, but a bit of stale, papery flavor comes through in the finish as well. Hops makes the mildest of contributions in the attack, but then quickly and totally disappears in the evolution, and without that mild bitterness, the beer doesn’t have a pleasant aftertaste. Light-medium in body and carbonation, but lacking the crisp, clean flavor and mouthfeel one expects from a premium lager. Overall, this premium lager lacks a quality malt flavor, needs a more balanced finish, and is simply way too sweet to be taken seriously. Won’t buy this again.

(Bottle) Pours a yellow color with a white fizzy head. Sweet aroma. Some hops, but in general the taste is pretty muted... like many Euro lagers. All in all, nothing to exciting.

500ml can into a pint glass. Slight corn aroma, pours nice golden colour with a hoppy-tasting head. Decent lacing on the glass. A little too much aftertaste for my liking, but overall it’s not a bad lager.

Okay really not sure if I have the right beer. The can I drank from sys Bavaria Holland, but I don’t see that on the site. I see a Holdandia at 3% but this cearly states %5 alc./vol. Perhaps in Canada this was named Holland? Anyroad, going this this being the beer. Slight reddish tinge to an otherwise generic yellow pour. Thin but firm head. Odd scent reminiscent of candle wax with a touch of citrus. Very stron taste at first but fades quick with a nearly clean finish. Unfortunately that finish is a bit waxy. The taste is odd as is the scent. A bit of hops, then some citrusy grapefruit, then a horribly bitter bit. Overall not that bad, but not something I need to have again.
