Dec 21, 2008 It is golden with a white head. The aroma has notes of malt, light straw and a light sweetness. The flavour has a light sweetness and a slightly dry bitterness, notes of malt, straw and the finish is dry. It has no flaws and no finesse.

Dec 20, 2008 [330ml bottle from the Brewery Tap, Reading] I remember disliking this when I had tried it in the past. However, I was forced into having it when visiting a pub where shockingly there was nothing on the 3 handpumps and they had also run out of all their premium continental beers leaving just 6 macros, of which this was the only one I hadnt rated. I was pleasantly surprised on tasting it - this is far better than I remembered; there is actually a decent amount of malt in there, and a bit of lime/citrus hoppy bite. The carbonation is not too excessive, and yet it has still got a crisp, refreshing finish. By macro lager standards this is very good, although by overall beer standards it is still nothing to write home about. I am guessing that the Reinheitsgebot has done some good, given that Germanys biggest macro is still of significantly higher quality than most world macros that are foisted on us!

Dec 19, 2008 Becks always reminds me of that line from Beerfest: "...und...und...und...und Becks!!!" Classic cinema, does not get any better than that. Where were we? Oh yeah, Becks. Third best beer in Germany? Riiiiiight. "Becks" is probably German for "run of the mill." Not terrible for a macro, but still watery and a little skunky. Und...und...und NEXT.
