Straw with an OK head. The aroma has notes of malt and hops. The flavour is slightly sweet with light floral notes and moderate bitterness. the flavour is mild, fresh and quenching - and that’s it. But of the pilsners I tasted on Tenerife 06, this was the best IMO. 1558

330ml bottle. Some grass aromas. Pours pale gold, with some vanishing white head, no lacework. Light body, average carbonation, crispy texture. Mild bitterness and dry aftertaste. Standard mainstream lager, i´ve tried someones worst than this one.

Can. Aroma of straw, hay and a little grass. Sweet malty flavour with a decent amount of bitterness as expected within the style. Not bad, but still forgetable.

Burk 33 cl. En högst ordinär upplevelse, där koriander och vingummi går igenom i aromen, och grönt te och koriander finns, om än svagt, i smaken.

Small to medium, dense, just foff-white head, not very longlasting over metallic golden beer. Lightly malty and a bit soapy nose. Some (even slightly astringent) bitterness, superimposed on mildly sweet, lame-ish malts. Rather well-carbonated feel, despite dead-looking. Metallic bitterish finish. Ho-hum fizzy international lager, but no doubt not the worst by far. Thanks for bringing, Dean!

Bottle from an Xmas present from my team. Pale gold with lasting thin white head with some clumps. actually some noble hop on the aroma. Actually that isn’t bad. Given the Mythos and Voll Damm before this. It’s actually acceptable and doesn’t make me want to be sick. Some lemon some noble hop some vomit still but hey its a pale lager. Ok.

Can. Straw yellow with a soapy head that is quickly gone. aroma is sourish macromalt, some sweet apple, some iron, cardboard and wet rg. Taste is watery, overcarbonated, sweet-sourish, apply-malty, with a shirt apply finish and a light, dull bitterness. Should be difficult to drink it up even under the hot Canarian sun.

Medium shiny white head. Clear yellow body. Faint malty peppery aroma. Dry grassy taste with papery notes. Mid-bodied. Faintly harsh mouthfeel. Dryish oily floral aftertaste, kind of watery, with cardboard notes. It’s OK, but bland. (0.5l can, Spar Supermarket, Puerto RIco, Gran Canaria.)

330ml can. Standard pils. No special cons or pros. Just an OK pils. Nothing more. Nothing less.

UPDATED: JAN 31, 2012 Bottle. Yellow colour with a white head. Moderate malty aroma. Light malty and moderate hoppy flavour

Hát nem valami jó, igazából semmi köze a pilsekhez, de a Kanári-szigetekről igazi kuriózum. Kicsit papírízű.
