Commercial Description:
This beer is the jewel in the crown of Damm’s century-long beer-brewing experience.

This lager beer with a universally appreciated character and taste is ideal for drinking at any time. Its high quality is due to the finest selection of raw materials and the meticulous brewing process. It stands out for its creamy hops-flavoured froth and refreshing taste.

Bottle brown, 330 ml
Appearance: Pours pale, opaque, yellow body with micro sediments floating in the body texture, saturation is poor, carbonation is weak, head gives no lacing, is snowy white, foamy to frothy in texture, initially medium to small in size, later on decreases to a very small froth floating on the body surface.
Aroma: Very gnetle, mineral, slightly milky, whipped cream, very weak, almost non - existant, gently flowery - grassy hoppy faint touch, some notes of cereal, minerality. QUite inviting.
Flavour: Front is very soft and wattery with lively carbonation on palate, mineral pronounced notes, surprisingly positive, noble hoppy notes but still faint, pale slightly thin grains, sour but rounded by malty - corny sweetness, notes of pop - corn. Finish duration is medium.
Palate: Body is light, texture is wattery, carbonation on palate is lively, finish feel is sour, salty, grainy, moderate to highly astringent, a bit dull and chalky. Thin brew.

Light yellow color, thin white head. Surprisingly left some lacing Little to no aroma. A slightly sweet and spicy american macro is what this really is. Smooth with a slightly spicy bitter finish.

Enjoyed this beer quite a bit when I was in Spain. Poured a light gold into the glass with a small white head. Aroma was corny and sweet. The beer was light and refreshing but still had a nice flavor to it.

Forgot to rate this bad boy for obvious reasons. On tap at trinity hall, Euro 2008 finals between Spain and Germany. The Spaten and Estrella were flowing. Pours a glowing light yellow honey color with a sort of soapy bright white head. Nose is metal, earth, corn. Taste is actually kind of smooth and crisp. This is really basic and weak as far as taste goes and kind of off flavored, but at least it is refreshing? Dammmmm

On tap at Alimara Hotel, Barcelona. A golden lager with a thick receding white head. Aroma of light malt and German hops. In mouth, a decent malty beer, with light chalkiness, German hops. Very quaffable. Tasted Mid Nov. 2006.

11.5 oz bottle @ Cafe Iberico Chicago. Nothing impressive here! Pale golden colour with a foamy white head. Hoppy aroma with notes of grass. Grassy bitter flavor, but too watery.
