2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
500 ml can picked up in Dakar, Senegal. Pours a pale yellow-gold with a full soft white lacy head. Aroma is malt, grains, hops and light fruit. Taste is a bit malty for a Pils and lots of bread in it as well. Palate is pretty smooth as well. Not bad.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Can from Simply, 5.6% ABV. Pale golden colour, medium white head. Nose is dry malty, bit of grain and hay. Flavour is dry malted, grainy, fairly bitter, medium carbonation. Dry finish.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Poured from a can purchased in Barcelona into a tall glass. The beer had a light gold color with a modest foamy white head that quickly disappated and had little retention. The aroma had subtle notes of straw, grain, and corn, with a bit of malt as well. The taste was light and grainy with a bit of corny bitterness and without sweet or sour components. It was slightly fizzy and lively with a thinner, lighter, and drier body.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Can in Spain. Clear golden pour with a huge white foamy and creamy head that leaves lacing. Aroma is of crispy German hops with some simple pils malt, slightly grainy. Flavor is watery bitter, slightly crispy and decent bitter in the finish. Watery texture, lively carbonation. Above average yet still quite uninspiring pilsener. Like the name though.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
€1.29 for a sixpack in Aldi, Tavira, Algarve: about 19 English Pence per bottle. Bright gold under a dying head of fluff, tonsured silhouette of a monk holding a tankard of his (imaginary) work proudly aloft on the label. About as far from Trappist as you can imagine despite the slick presentation; aroma of card, adhesive, slight grassy hop, lemon and pinecone, flavour innocuous and slight popcorn-accented lager with a dab of spuce and unpleasant shampoo bitterness. You get what you pay for. Plus some cool and cruelly misleading packaging.
