Rated 7/21/07. Golden color with a decent white head. Not much lacing. Aroma was sweet malty, with herbal overtones. Flavor is sweet malts, with fruity and grassy notes. Mild hops. Smooth finish. As pale lagers go, this one is better than average. I would have it again on a hot day.

aroma is very mild although it reminds of seawater, color is light and slightly cloudy. taste is sweet but not too much of a adjunct flavor. not much on the hops.

The aroma is very floral with honey and malt. The appearance is golden with and average head. The flavor is like the aroma and bitter too. The palate is thin. Overall a somewhat unusual pale lager that has some of the usual qualities that I don’t care for.

toast, amber, hazy, frothy, lightly bitter, medium body, sticky, average carbonation,

Aroma is lager malts with herbal hops. Taste is similar but very very carbonated, i had to shake the fizz out of my litre bottle.

Bottle. Pale gold with a small head. Aromas are grain, sweetcorn and butter. Very thin. Flavours are sweet grain steeped in water. Thats about all there is to it.

Bottle. Only the slight hint of sour malt and to detect that, I almost had to stick my nose into the beer. Pale amber color with little head. Extremely light flavor - slight hints of malt. The Spanish equivalent of light beer and even Miller Lite has more flavor.

12 oz bottle, best before 11/7/04, tasted 6/17/05: Hazy light gold w/ none of the white head. A thin white lace appeared around the glass. Rubbery aroma and spicy hop and papery oxidation at first (to be expected). Not malt, a bit of DMS, but not fruitiness. Well balanced and papery w/ hints of herbal hop; Clean, but otherwise boring and aged. Lightly sweet finish w/ a bit of a corny taste. Higher carbonation, light body, smooth. I’d like to try this beer fresh! It’s seems like it would have been a very nice and hoppy lager in it’s prime, but age has taken the best parts away from this one.

Bottle. Poured a small white head that mostly diminished, sparse lacing, fine, small and medium sized bubbles, carbonated, transparent, and a pale yellow hue. Malty and skunky aroma. Lightly bitter and malty flavor. Smooth palate. Light body.

This bottled brew poured a small sized head of white colored mostly lasting fine to medium sized frothy bubbles that left behind a carbonated transparent light yellow orange colored body and a poor lacing. The aroma mildly skunky with a malt hop overtone. The palate was tingly and mildly malty with a hop bite that lingered into the finish. The flavor was smooth malty and mildly hoppy.
