Can purchased at the 8&8 Delikát (believe it or not). Poured a shiny yellow body with a small white head that went away fast. Empty nose, some dry graininess. The taste is a mess. Some crappy light sourness, some soapy (but ok really) herbal hopiness, very light breadiness biting carbonation. Dry and unbalanced. Why?

UPDATED: DEC 26, 2011 Bottle. I wont drink this again. A real terrible one from the Brewery of Pécs. No colour, no aroma, no taste, minimum carbonation. Watery crap.

500 ml can. Budapest, Hungary.
Clear pale yellow colour with tiny white head. Weak fruity sweet aroma. Flavour is very weak as well. Some very mild bitterness... no, it’s papery dryness. This was dirt cheap but I’m not quite sure if it was even worth that. Pretty pointless brew.

Der Antrunk und der Mittelteil schmecken bei diesem Bier nach nichts. Trocken, ein wenig muffig, nichts. Der Abgang erinnert leicht an ein Bleiffreies. Was soll das sein?? Test vom 10.8.2008, Gebinde: Dose Noten: 6,1,1,2,6,1 - 1,90

Can 500 ml, rated in Bogacs, Hungary.
Appearance: Pours pale yellow, even very pale, looks like stale in terms of colour, texture is not good too, it is not clear because there are some sediments floating in the body texture, carbonation is weak too, head is regular white initially medium to small, quickly decreasing to practically non-existant, there are some weak traces of lacing, head is fizzy to foamy in texture.
Aroma: Very weak, slightly metalic and sourish from corn adjunct offspins, very weak and faint aromatic hoppy nose is almost non-catchable, paper, dust, corn grains but very stale and weak, on the verge of non-existant but not negative.
Flavour: Front is hazy light, neutral, reminding spring or mineral water, some mineral accents and gentle carbonation sourness, worked down corn, very weak in terms of extract of wort and a lot of water neutralizing the flavour, quite neutral, flat with short finish duration, very weak notes of metalic sourness and gentle thin hoppyness in nose.
Palate: Body is light, texture is wattery, carbonation on palate is rather soft, finish feel is neutral, flat.

Canned(500ml). -Once again tasteless Hungarian 3.0% cheap lager. Completely identical as his "watery brothers" meaning slight bready and corn taste with short bitterish finish. Have I forgot to tell about water...

4/7 0.5 l can Doggythedog brought from Budapest, thanks for sharing! It poured a golden body with medium sized and short living head. Some lower quality hops in aroma, sourish corn notes. Flavor is a bit sweetish, with corn sourness, and some strange dustness. A bit soapy as well. Should I call that complexity? Dry, medium long finish, a bit soapy as well. Well, this is nothing too bad, but had better pale lagers. But the problem is when you had 2 NAs objectively better than 3 ordinary beers the same night :P Gimme something else!

Can, 3%. Clear yellow colour. Very small white head. Watery flavour, hint of metal. Rubber feel.

Bottled. Very pale yellow, no head. Vague metallic nose. Sharp and very thin. Soapy with some rotting vegetables, chemical finish. Aggresively disgusting.
