Simply Excellent ! Love it ! This beer does it all for me ! I’ve had it in Malta and London. It gives me goosebumps every time !

Cisk lager is really tasty, has great aroma and have an appearance which makes a person wants to have one whenever he sees one. The beer is simply awsome.

Bottle. Tried whilst on holiday in Malta in September 2011. Golden with low carbonation. Slightly dry. A passable Euro Fizz which was thirst quenching in the heat but nothing else.

Bottle, has a clear straw yellow pour with a hint of gold, gave a white head that deflates to a scattered cover and ring, I see some tiny floaties in the beer, Cisk Lager left generous creamy lacing on the sides of the glass, aromas of honey sweetness, pilsner malt, light bread with hints of sweet biscuit dough, lemon citrus, and light grass hops, flavor of light malt and citrus, there is some bitterness and felt dry at the finish, I liked the nose on this beer, I thought it had much to give considering it is a pale lager, nose has more sweetness than I have found in your typical Pale Lagers, and this beer appears to have more bite than your typical Pale Lager, I enjoyed this beer, I am a little surprised at the low rating for this drink.

On tap on Malta. I didn’t like the island, but their beer was OK. Very shiny golden yellow colour, white head. Aroma of hops, malts, grass. Flavour is crisp, soft fruity and hoppy, with a citrus twist. A bit watery but very refreshing. Nice lager.

A fresh bottle brought directly from the country by my inlaws... thanks! Bright pale yellow, moderate sudsy head, decent retention, modest lace. Aroma is lightly citrus with some green hops. Green grassy hops, light citrus body, and a surprisingly bitter finish make this very enjoyable. A little lighter in the body than many of the euro lagers, but more bitterness than most. I was surprised to find this much to talk about with this beer, and all in all I thought it was very good!

Bottle - 330ml. Light, fresh and surprisingly fruity and scented. Lemon, melon, caramelised banana. Mmmm. A little sticky sweet, but that feels appropriate for a fun summer drink. Sometimes, just sometimes, one of these International Lagers hits it just right with a little twist of difference.

Canned. Thanks Anza! Clear golden colour with frothy white head. Pale malty aroma. Moussy mouthfeel, pretty malty with little hops noticed, and they’re kind of flavourful and outspoken for a pale lager. Not the average pale lager here, with elegant flavouring hops, and the same goes for the bittering, giving a solid but not overly bitterness.

Pleasant lager vibe with some resinous aroma. Flavor has some decent malt and grain to it, with more of the somewhat noticeable hops as well. I’d order it again. I had this from a can, so zero skunkage.

clear yellow, fluffy white head, not very lacy. nose of malt amd grain with yeasty hints. flvor of grain and malt, with breadlike hints, maybe some matel salts from the can. light bodied. i enjoyed the beer, but i found the bright yellow can to be supremely attractive...nay, hypnotic. must...drink...this...beer.... sample from cornfield.
