Pale yellow, ligjht orange, colored brew. Floral aroma, light hoppy. Hoppy bitterness, a bit crisp, a bit herbal. Not too bad..

33cl. bottle from a local supermarket. It pours a clear light golden liquid with a small diminishing white head that doesn’t last throughout the beer and, consequently, leaves no lacing. The aroma is light, with hoppy hints of mild herbs and citron, as long as some grainy malts. It tastes more or less likewise, with poor intensity and a watery flavour. It has an odd sweetness and a little bitterness. The carbonation is soft, and it has a light-medium body. It goes down smooth, leaving a pleasant mouthfeel, but the aftertaste is weird; both grainy and citrusy, but very light. Presentation is smart; very nice I’d say for this kind of light pale lager. No major flaws, but the brew fails to be something else a part from a refreshing watered down lager.

Bottle 33cl. A clear yellow beer with almost no head. nose is nice on lager notes and hops. Aroma is slightly sweet, low hops aroma, bitterness at the finish and very watery, notes of bread. Not unpleasant but very boring as very watery.

27-APR-2011, bottle @terrace in Barcelona apartment, from local supermarket. Light golden with low white head. Light, thin, watery. Beer-wanna-be. I get some bitter hops, not very aromatic, and not all that SAAZ-like. Citric and at least not sweet.

La Damm la saco para intentar arrebatar un “trozo del pastel” del sector femenino en manos de la Coronita. Cerveza del mismo estilo que la Coronita pero no ha podido desbancar a esta en cuanto a posicionamiento en el mercado y popularidad.

Bottle (clear). Sweet syrupy barley malt aroma. Golden yellow color with small head. Sweet grainy malt and light herbal hops flavor. Hops flavor is nice, but the malt isn’t.

Bottle. Clear yellow colour with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of malt and hops.

Bottled 33cl. Served rather chilled. Nice subtle saaz hop profile apparent. Not much bitterness. Very drinkable and refreshing on a hot day. Not bad at all. Underrated in my opinion.

Bottle in Spain. Clear golden pour, thin white head. Aroma is quite skunked and with some imagination it has the saaz hops in there. Flavor is watery, slightly bitter, quite refreshing and somewhat faintly hopped. Very lively carbonation and a watery texture.

clear yellow, sooth white head. citryssy flowery mild hoppy aroma. flavor is dissappointring, dry, faint hoppy, malty, cereral.
