UPDATED: MAR 1, 2009 500 mL Can. This one poured very lively and very frothy; it may not have had enough time to settle from a wipe-out I had on an ice patch on the way out from the store (a later visitation revealed a scanty white head that again left good lacing on the sides). Grainy aroma with a grassyness about it and a very faint note of grapefruit. The taste is light sweet malt with relatively little aftertaste followed by a clean finish. A very light bodied beer, the flavor is a bit shy but I wouldn’t call it watery by any means. Quite smooth in the mouth. Best suited for hot summer beer-drinking. There are lots of more expen$ive beers that get a lesser, and sometimes VERY LESSER rating. Brownie points for good value.

Green 66cl bottle, best before May 2008, drank April 2007. Poured into a 0.2 litre Veltins tulip glass. The white head soon left to leave a scummy wispy covering on top a crisp light golden yellow body. Hoppy aroma, nothing much of anything else. A typical Euro lager taste, no body or depth, no flavours to pontificate about. Watery mouthfeel, nothing there at all. Could easily have scored this a lot lower, not a beer I would choose again.

UPDATED: MAY 26, 2012 Bottle. Thanks to Countbeer for this one! Clear, hay/yellow liquid with medium, foamy white head. Looks like a boring lager. Aroma of cereal malt, metal, corn, a little throw up, cooked vegetables and some very light noble hops. Not exactly pleasant. Taste is very bland with very light sweetness and light bitterness and notes of corn and metal. Quite tasteless, which is good considering that the small taste that is there isn’t really good. Light to medium bodied with medium carbonation. Not too high carbonation like most other premium lagers, which is good. A bit sticky though, in a weird way. Not good at all, though not entirely awful. Thanks a LOT Kamiel... ;)

This one is as expected; a light but somehow refreshing beer. Metallic scents and flavors aside, the corn and straw elements somehow create a tolerable brew. Very drinkable, but very light and dry overall.

Clear light yellow colour, nice short lasting foam. Taste has good bitter hop flavour, somewhat high carbonated. A normal pilsener.

33cl bottle. Decent white head. Clear light golden pour. An ok pils, nothing special

33 cl bottle. Light yellow colour with nice foam that disappeared really fast. Very easy to drink. After having a zip you really want to take another. Refreshing. Taste has bittery hops in it mostly.

Clear yellow with a white head. Grassy aroma. Taste is mild malt with light bitterness. Blah.
