skunky aroma (clear bottle, doh!), crisp taste, a rather full mouthfeel but is ruined by the Becks skunk. drain pourer¨!!

330 ml clear bottle from Jumbo, Santiago de Chile. Looks like a Corona in the clear bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a fine white frothy head that lingers. Aroma is almost exclusively malty, very grainy and classic. Some sweeter hints of caramel and peanuts are noticeable in the back. Taste is nothing special, starts sweet but becomes marginally bitter with fresh herbal-hoppy touches. Good to pair with lunch but not enough to be drank on its own. Light bodied, crisp and fresh. Watery in the finish. Better than a regular pale lager but not by much.

Pours pale yellow clear body with white frothy head. Aromas are citrus, grass and grains. Palate is thin watery with soft carbonation and mouthfeel. Aftertaste is dry bitter, papery with short fresh hops finish. Overall mild watery pils with an ok hoppy bitter finish typical to Northern Germany. The bottle is so tacky I would’ve probably left it on the shelf normally.

Clear bright yellow with white foam head. Another typical German pilsener with just a little more flavor. To clear, no dept. (Düsseldorf 201202)

Kulturbahnhof, Jena, thanks Morko! Erm, golden? Smells vaguely eggy, tastes soft and slightly eggy. They appear to have tried to make the least potentially offensive lager possible. And made one of the duller available.

The big brother of normal Beck’s, still looks like pee, but it deserves a try.

Light summer beer ala sun and Corona, however, slightly more bitter. Nice easy drinking beer to the summer heat but at a price of 1euro bottle, it can not be recommended

Bottle..... It clear pours golden with a small white head.... The aroma is malt, hay, stray....and some hops..... The flavor is hay, stray, biscuit and hops..... nice sweet fresh finish....

Platt herber aber frischer Antrunk mit geringem aber schmeckbarem Hopfen. Dieses Aroma bleibt konstant, wenig bitter, spät mit bleibender Herbe abklingend. Simpel aber erfrischend. 8/7/9/6/7/7

Clean made german lager, with a noticable bitter hop character from start to finsh. Yet it remains overall average and rather boring.
