2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
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.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Not really excited about this one. Watery, not much flavor. Thats about all I really have to say. Nothing special.
2.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Very light in color with a foamy white head. Crisp, light in flavor with a sligth malty finish. Rather refreshing. Nothing exceptional to note.
1.3 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Sweet, watery, grainy. Dryish finish. Basic cheap lager, with a bit of flavour.
1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Can. Medium gold. Forward aroma boasts your typical lager profile of grain, hops and malt. Standard lager-like palate. Unfortunately, the flavour is not nearly as forward as the aroma, offering simple glimpses of cereal, hop bitterness and a touch of caramel. About as average as a lager gets.
2.2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Much sweeter than expected, no skunk at all, which was a surprise. May have purchased the bber the way this brewer meant it to be served. Holland may be saved.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Imported in name only, a boring generic lager. I’m afraid to try Hollandia, which is in the exact same shape bottle, down to the decorative low-relief molded flourish on the neck.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Refreshing but that is about it. Drank this beer in a jewelry store in St. Maaraten while buying diamonds. When shopping for diamonds in St. Maartan, ask for a beer and you will receive. Bought a nice pair of 1 carat diamond earings for my wife. Not sure the beer warranted such a purchase.
