.5l can at Rome airport. Starp, tiny flavor. Sweet malt later. Tastes on the cheap, macro side of things but very drinkable. Musty, rusty.

(bottle - 330 ml) Light golden pour with a fluffy white head. Light aroma with hints of hops, corn, and some biscuits. Flavor is light just like the aroma. Some grassy notes begin with some light hay and pepper near the middle. A very light malt sweetness comes in at the middle with a rather dry and sour malt finish. Easy to drink.

ight gold beer with a very small ammount of bubbs, decent whte head with little retention and some tiny patches of spotty lacing early on - none later. Aroma is dominated by biscuity (maybe closer to bready) malts. I acutally snorted my beer while sticking my nose waaaay too far into the glass and then sprayed it all over the table - I am the original classy quality beer taster. Light fruitiness that comes out as it warms. Slight yeast and possibly dates??? Not to sure about that one. Nice smell that leans to the dry side. Of course, there are lots of flavourful malts to taste, a nice background dry yeast and some fruit on the back end. Defenetly not complex. Has a good medium body to it, good carbs on the swish - nears a creamy state. Feels light then thickens a little. Body shaking chunky belch. Ends with a short mild fresh bitter finish.

From can. Clean pissy yellow colour with a decent white crispy head. Refreshing malty aroma with hints of honey. Crisp clean beer with a bitter texture. Does the job.

Canned 50cl. Bought at the train station in Lugano. Pale golden with a decent white head. Light bodied and easy drinkable. Good hop presence with hints of white bread and gooseberries. Dry hoppy finish. Nice.

660ml green bottle. A clear golden beer with a medium white head. Strong sweet grainy aromas. Taste is sickly sweet malt with no distinguishing features. Neutral bland finish. Distinctly unremarkable. There are so many better German beers to try..

Cerveja pilsem sem muita personalidade. Cheiro opaco, com traços adocicados muito suave. Amarelada, espuma branca de boa formação e densa. Aveludada, suavemente adocicada, pouca percepção. Boa drinkabilidade.
