Bottle @ Lalibella Hotel. When dining at 7500 feet you need a beer. Grab a dashen - that’s all they have. Pray that the generator has gas to power the fridge.

Rather stable, if small white head, fed by lively carbonated golden beer. Grassy, greenmalt, dusty malts in the nose. Sweet pale malts all making up the taste, bit grassy, Nothing further to declare. Still, not really bad, strangely enough. Light bit slick - sticky, not cloying. Well - could be better, could be worse. Thanks to the Vermeersch bros and their supplyer!

Bottle courtesy of Maki, thank you ma’am! Bright golden color, thick white head, solid lacing. Aroma of white pepper and paper. Taste is bitter watery lemon. Not bad, compared to other developing world lagers.

Botella de 33 Cl. No es precisamente la mejor cerveza. Pero se puede beber perfectamente.

At a tasting, thanks eyes_wide_shut, pours yellow with a medium head, aroma of malt, honey and bread, flavor of bread, hops and calcium, light bodied

One the sweeter side for a pale lager. Not great but nothing really that offensive. Serving: Bottle
