Tap@Ferry2Dover. Aroma is grainy with a hint of apple. Pale golden color, white head, good lace. Sweet, grainy, bitter, light herbal, hint of chewing gum, light bodied. Refreshing and very clean.

Like becks, but an inferior weaker version (or a very clever and cheaper to make marketing ploy)

Pale yellow beer with quite a strong white head. Some hop element is noticeable in the aroma. Dry, crisp mouthfeel. The taste has hints of both hops and biscuity malt. A refreshing lager, better than most of those standard ’4%’ lagers.

on tap clear light gold tight white head that laces well .grassy citrus nose . slightly sharp and astringent on the palate - touch of hoppy bitterness at the finish . lowish carbonation about right . unremarkable lager

Pours amber with a large white head. Aroma is malt, heavy DMS and light grass. Flavour follows the nose.

At hard rock London. Not too bad still get the German hops nose an a bit in palate. Wonder why all the 4.0 beer here? ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

440ml can. Pours gold with a medium head. Aroma is a bit of lemon and corn. Taste has lemon and grass to start. Touch of corn and lemon on the finish.

Far more crisp and fresh than the origional. Pale yellow, fizzy head. Had this in the UK and dont think its avaiable in the states.

Tap at the Price Albert. This beer was something of a marketing triumph, producing a low strength mass produced lager which is actually drinkable, allowing for a long session in pubs that don’t serve nice beer without having to head for the european fighting lagers. Having said that, it is still a dull thin generic lager, it’s just better than Fosters/Carling et al.

Keg at the Bestwood Lodge Hotel, Nottingham. A bit like standard Becks but with half the flavour removed. Yes, it’s that dull. The hotel is nice, but don’t go there looking for a decent beer!

Pretty feeble and tasteless lager which is pretty tasteless as well as tastless not to mention the taste of this lager which does not taste of very much at all it must be tastelss of just fizzy lager water type drink.
