2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
500 ml can from LCBO, just another generic Eurolager. Similar to Heineken, slightly more enjoyable though since there was not as much skunk and priced better as well.

Bottle. Yellow with a short lasting bubbly white head. Weak aroma of grains and malt. Flavour is slightly malty, grassy and grainy. Slight bitter finish. An ok tasting straw beer.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
12 oz bottle, pours a very pale yellow with a thick white head. Active carbonation. Smells both sweet and skunky equally. The taste starts off sweet with an almost non-existent midtaste, ending with a slighty malty finish that leaves next to no aftertaste. The mouthfeel is very watery and bubbly. A very plain and uninspiring beer with just a tiny skunky kick.

Draught. Clear light yellow / golden color with a average fizzy fair lacing white head. Aroma is light malty and hoppy. Flavor is moedrate sweet and light bitter with a short duration. Body is light, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. Boring if you can choose something else !
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 6/20
12oz bottle. Clear, pale yellow with medium-sized, white head. The aroma is light with some floral hop notes and some graininess with a touch of corn (DMS?). The flavor is lightly grainy and lightly sweet with a subtle bready character and some noble hop flavors. The finish is balanced with some muted bitterness and is dry and crisp. The mouthfeel is well-carbonated but not spritzy, and the body is light to medium in fullness. Overall, a lightly-flavored, pale, Eurpoean lager - like countless others...

Don’t ya just love those green bottles? Date code 1719, aged well! My bottle did not say pilsner on it, it said Bavaria Holland Beer. Sometimes these out of country labels are difficult to ID for a rating. Pop the lid and there is immediately a short pungent veggie cabbage aroma. Once poured it mellows into a simple, clean and perhaps sweet smell. Looks like any other ubiquitous pale yellow American lager. Taste is a little pinchy, like an instigating pilsner. A small back of throat mild bitter linger hangs for a while. Good medium carbonation. Has a very thin froth on top for a head. Stacks up well against American pale lagers and perhaps even pilsners. Overall not bad but could have a few more manners. For a lager it is too much and for a pilsner it is not enough. After a few chugs there is this industrial hint of alcohol lurking around on the back of the tongue.
