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.

Gonna have to disagree with many of the raters on this one. It was actually much better than I expected. Enjoyed it much more than the Dinkelacker I had last night, which was overly bitter. The Bavaria poured a clear gold, aroma is very pilsner - malt and hops with just a slight sour undertone. Flavor was a subtle blend of malt and hops with a touch of sweetness. A touch of hop bitterness in the finish, slightly tart. Altogether a decent brew. A notch above Heinekin in my opinion. Probably still overpriced, but as I got a single for $1.28, I’m not complaining.

Sparkling gold liquid topped by a fizzy and active white head. Some lace. Good pilsner hop aroma with mild bread, but followed by some skunk. Crisp and hoppy, with mild malt sweetness following. Just seems to ba lacking a little bit. Overall a decent average drinker. Can 500ml- LCBO purchase.

Little musty aroma. Straw flavors. Clean & crisp finish. Zero aftertaste. Light palate. Little sweeteness. Far better than that shit from Heineken. This is what I call a good lakehouse beer.

I find it hard to believe that Labatt Blue is rated higher than this one. Not a great beer, but...
Best features are a good palate, a pleasant Pils aroma and good hoppy bitterness. This is a decent "set up a cooler on the deck on a hot day" beer.

very heineken like beer, not as good though goes down pretty smooth but still has a very skunked smell and a rough aftertaste. still drinkable

This is decent European lager. Apperance is nice when poured into a glass. Nice, thick foam and very good lacing. Aroma is OK, but gets pretty sulfury as it warms. Taste is pretty decent and has a nice malty end. I’ve had this one in the green bottle and the 16 oz. can. Gotta say, the green bottles are usually skunked. Prefer this one out of a can.
