2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
0.33l bottle from some store in Graz... Getting this one turned out to be quite funny, but I won’t bore with needless stories.... The label claims this is fabulous... heh... now that’s an original marketing line. Wonder if anyone actually believed it. This poured a yellow body, fizzy, with a small white head that went away later than I thought it would. Tipical lagery malty/hoppy nose, maybe a bit acidic. The taste was actually surprisingly pleasant, thin, but not overly so, with honey being the most prominent flavour, standard maltiness coming second, and with a nice, mild hoppy bitterness in the background and the aftertaste. Hints of lemon and dust were also there. Yes... it turned out to be way less crappy than I thought it would be. It’s an unoffensive, standard international lager, that’s more pleasant than not, nothing more, nothing less.

.4l draft in Florence, off of Santa Maria Novella square. Crystal golden, foamy head. Nice honey-lager nose, sweet apple, tart sour finish. Pretty good.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottle. Corn/barley malt aroma. Medium yellow color with moderate head. Slightly sweet barley/corn malt flavor. Well, if you’re in Austria and just really miss the flavor of Busch/Strohs/PBR (or whatever cheap macro you can think of) - this is the beer for you.
