Pours pale gold with a big bubbly froth head. Good head retention and some modest lacing. Nose of pears, apple and sweet grass. Palate is thin and relatively dull on any building of flavours. Very sweet and lots of apples, minerally to the point of metallic, and white grapes. Has a character of semi-sweet white wine with some vinegar tartness. Not completely what I had expected and not surprisingly good. If it were cleaner or crisper it would be a better offering. It tastes a little under-fermented. Maybe I got one on a good day, but even at its best, it won’t ever be great.

Die Schaumkrone hält gut. Malziger und säuerlicher Geschmack prägt das Bier, die Geschmacksintensivität ist mittelstark die Qualtität gut, insgesamt gut trinkbar, dennoch nichts besonderes da typisches Lagerbier. Test vom 21.9.2009, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 11,10,12,9,12,10 - 10,35

Shared with my wife at a hotel room in Nice, bought at the local Spar
Pale golden, big white head. Smells of some dust, other hops and malts, also some unpleseant boiled veggies. Taste is very light malty, light sweett, some kind of sulfids as well. Light body, soft carbonation. Light bitter finish which is quite dusty

Bottle. Pours a golden body, with an average white head that stays long enough, almost fully, with a good lacing. Nice aroma, with notes of grain and fruits. Bitter, grainy and watery taste, with notes of corn. Medium body, light to medium carbonation, watery palate. A good lager, in my opinion, and underrated, judging by the score, but very expensive here.

Difficile da ricordare. Quando è cosi vuol dire che non è una buona birra. Abbastanza anonima. Il sentore di fiori d’arancio è l’unica cosa che la rendono diversa da una birra slavata.

bottle from fabulas, lisbon, portugal. Lively carbonation. Small uninteresting head. Golden appearance. Barley aroma and medium/high bitterness.

650mL swingtop bottle poured pale golden into bottle with abundant white head settling to some nice spotted lacing. Aroma is grainy with some floral hops. Taste is malty sweetness with some citrusy fruit and some mild bitter hoppy finish. Nice carbonation and body give this beer a nice mouthfeel.
