(bottle) Clear golden colour with a foamy medium head. Malty aroma, almost corny and citric notes. Also malty, quite sweetish start with a slight hoppy finish. I don´t like it, but it is anyway drinkable.

Rather pale beer. Strong malty aroma, flowery hops. Cereal palate, some crisp dryness. A hoppy finish that ends up a bit stale.

Bottle 0.33 L. Golden body with a small, fizzy, white head, fully diminishing with virtually no lacing; heavy bubbles with thin density. Moderate malty (hay) and hoppy (flowers, citrus) aroma with a light yeasty note. Flavour is light-to-moderate sweet and bitter with a light acidic note; well balanced; bitter note becomes a bit stronger in the finish. Light-to-medium body with an oily texture; soft carbonation. Not completely satisfactory; flavour is quite attenuated; palate is fuller than expcted.

Clear golden colour. Quickly diminishinf head. Hoppy, malty, vegetable aroma. Pretty bland taste. Boring.
