Bottle at EBF 2008. Claer yellow with a white head. Aroma moderate malty (caramel) and hoppy. Flavor moderate sweet and bitter. Light body. A bit more hoppy than the typical Mediterranean lager.

[EBF @ Copenhagen, September 2008] Small fizzy white head that mostly diminished. Spare display of lacework. Clear yellow color. Aroma of mild malt, corn, hay and hint of floral hops. Light bodied with an average carbonation. Light sweet flavor. Light sweet malty finish.

Bottle at EBF 2008. Clear yellow colour with a small white head. Sweet malty aroma and taste. Could do with some more hops. Standard boring lager! Watery.

Small white head. Yellow body with very light carbonation. Watery grain aroma with notes of straw and floral hops. Dry watery grainy straw taste with floral hop notes. Some sweetness. Slightly harsh mouthfeel. Not bad, but apart from the extra aroma hops, this is a standard eurolager. (0.1l taster from bottle on EBF’08.)

33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden with a small white head. Aroma and flavour is that of a classic pale lager, no more no less. Bitter and mild sweet finish.

At EBF 2008.Bottle golden colour with off-white head.Aroma is hoppy and grainy with flavor of corn and hay,good pilsner i think better then many Danish plain pilsners.

At EBF 2008, Friday September 12
Clear pale golden color, white head. Sweet malty and vegetables scent. Malty sweet, grainy taste. Spritzy mouthfeel, low bitterness. Flat aftertaste.

Finally popped open the bottle my friend brought back from the region. Pours a clear, pale gold with a surprisingly large head that lingers well. Aroma is startlingly similar to a golden Belgian ale - golden raisins and sweet fruits on the nose. Tastes like some of the better beers I’ve had in South America - very clear with low carbonation, refreshing but a little dilute. I’m sure I’d have this every day if I were in Kosovo - many thanks to ML for the opportunity to try it!

Pours gold with a generous white head. Smells of citrus, light spice, dry malt, perfume. Tastes of sweet malt with some peppery splashes on the finish. Decent.
