This beer is not good, but it is not horrible. Lightly sweet with a light hop finish. Aftertaste is a bit like stale cereal.

Backlog fromn 2011 Light color & body & complexity refreshing, but standard industrial

Bottled, 0.33l. Clear pale golden color with nice white head. Aroma of floral hops, malt and some skunkiness. Sweet malty taste, grainy / corn notes, plain mouthfeel and some bitterness it the finish. Light body, thin texture and average carbonation. Average pale lager, good enough to kill the thirst...

Can. Pours golden with a white head. A bit fruity with detectable hop aroma, some bitterness. A bit watery and thin, but drikable (especially under the hot Albanian sun in the summertime - it tasted better there)

Good hoppy lager with a creamy white head, with a good aroma of hops. Fine pilsner.

Mild herber aber nicht aässriger Antrunk. Im Mittelteil dann aber doch milder und somit wässrig, leicht süß, bitter-getreidig. Dann wässriger, seicht bitterer, etwas vollerer Abgang. 11/8/9/7//7

Gift from SJ. Golden POUR, FIZZY WHITE HEAD. Instantly smells of skunk and corn with a hint of caramel malt.. Thin body, thin taste, but not without some charecterstic.

Clean and drinkable with fair hop character and a decent enough balance. Nothing interesting but it’s fairly drinkable, which is as much as I’ll ever expect from a mass-produced Balkan lager.

Colore classico con leggera schiuma. Aroma leggero di malto e corpo altrettanto leggero.

Bottle, 0,33l, gift from Albania. Golden color, with small white head. Aroma, fruity, hops. Taste, malt, yest, with bittersweet finish. Average lager, nothing surprising.

Bottle - 330ml. Boring golden body with a thin white foamy head. This malty/hoppy aroma. Taste is weak, watery, and carries bad metallic notes. Finish is non-existent. Not very good.
