An interesting Heineken taste-alike. Decent and non-skunked, thankfully! Crisp with a flavor remarkably reminiscent of..........Heineken.

As common as the Euro and as aesthetically attractive. I remember the Guilder used to be such a colourful and cheerful style of currency. This one is now a dour uninspring and totally fake replica of whatever a beer is, just like the euro. Good thing that it cost something close to that denomination as it isn’t worth any more than that.

I can't believe this has so few ratings, it seems like you can get it anywhere around here. A decent lager, smooth and the taste wasn't so bad.

First off - cheap - generic looking TV studio label - were there no artists available in Holland? Were they on strike? Anyway - back to the beer. Bit of a wort-like aroma to it that I have witnessed in other beers such as Bavaria's NA. Medium golden appearance with little to no head. Malty flavor with a bit of a biscuity taste to it. The malty twang is what makes this beer stand above some of the other boring Euro lagers. Not bad.

Malty brew, lightly sweet like graham crackers. Reminded me some of a Carribean or Eastern European lager. Terrible appearance marks for the green bottle, and the name, which is like some bad translation. The beer itself is unremarkable medium gold. A little tinny in the finish. I was in dire fear of something with such a generic name, but it actually turned out decently.
