Blond colour. Ordinary lager, over the average for Eichhof. Dry in the front, a residual sweetness later.

Bottled 27.5 cl. It pours a golden beer with a nice white head. Lively carbonation. The nose is of sour apples, burnt tyres, compost, cereals and lime. Sweet taste. Low bitterness. Medium bodied. Some sourness showing up. Decent lacework. Some glue sneaking in after a few sips. Unpleasant sweet finish with a hint of fish and compost. Artificial and sulphury. Cloying. A really bad lager.

white head that diminishes quickly, clear yellow color smells a bit hoppy,a bit malty,a bit sweetish,some grain, slightly metallic rather carbonated tasts sweetish-sourish,a bit malt aftertaste a bit malty ,a bit hoppy,some dried grass,grainy not bad,but not really a lot of charakter

Nice refreshing pilsener.

UPDATED: JAN 25, 2004 clear golden colour, big bubbles, some plastic in the nose, sweet and medium-bodied, grainy, dry finish of haye and rotten vegetables
