(Can 33 cl) Courtesy of yespr. Clear golden with a dense and very white head leaving some laces. Aroma of malt and brewing cereal. Medium body, flavours of malt and brewing cereal. The finish is dry. A classic Pale Lager. 130608

(Canned) Slightly hazy yellow-golden with a small, but frothy and lacy head. Sweetish, corny-malty, slightly buttery and acidic aroma with hints of grassy hops. Mildly acidic, corny-grainy-malty flavor with some mellow, aromatic-grassy bitterness in the finish. Light to medium-bodied, neutral-sweetish palate with medium carbonation. A smooth and reasonably malty, but quite uninteresting lager. Somewhat similar to the less interesting Lidl brews, like Grafenwalder.

Canned, Pals, Costa Brava, Spain. Bright golden yellow colour, with a fizzy, fine, shiny white head. Plenty of bubbles in this grainy adjunct. Chemical bitterness on the front of the palate. Deathly finish. It was a rate of last resort as all the drunks in Barcelona drink this swill.

Canned. Hazy fgolden in colour. Particles floating. It has a malty aroma, somewhat bittersweet. The flavour is sweet nd malty. the sweetness could origin from corn. Thanks to "Dorqui" for this one.

Canned. Yellow colour, small white head. Aroma of malts, white bread and some maize mainly. Weak hoppyness also. Flavour is malts and hops with some grassy and maizeish hints. Still quite refreshing and easy to drink. Lightflavoured, but perfect beer for a hot summerday.

Can (BB 07/2006). Pale yellow, small white head. Slightly sweet aroma, some hops there too. Light beer. Clean but quite watery. Corn and rice are clearly used here as sweetness dominates the weak palate. Light woody-grassy hops in the finish.

Can. Aroma dominated by hops, maybe with light notes of flowers; light malty notes. Colour is pale yellow with large (artificial) white head. Flavour is mainly bitter with some light sweet notes at the beginning. Very light body with a dry texture; very high carbonation; metallic feeling in the finish. Drinkable, not much more than that.

UPDATED: APR 30, 2006 It was not bad, but it is a different sort of product from Damm, it says is a Pilsener. But here is like a lager.

In the 1L bottle brought to me from Barcelona by Dean M. Pours light yellow with a rapidly disappearing effervescent head. High carbonation, poor lacing. A very light and subtle malt aroma. Low hop flavor and scent. A fairly nondescript beer, other than the tingly slightly-metal quick finish.

(can) Poured palke yellow. Foamy, artificial head. Thin, sweet and watery. Your typical cheap lager.
