Bottiglia da 33cl (allora esistono!!!) comprata alla Conad sotto Roma Termini; versa colore biondo chiaro con buona schiuma un bel po’ evanescente. Aroma non granché, di cereali vari (mais di sicuro) e un po’ di quella glassa della colomba pasquale (soprattutto quelle delle marche grosse). Sapore il solito, mi aspettavo però un retrogusto più sgradevole/saponoso, e questa è stata una buona sorpresa. Corpo acquoso. Il prodotto più economico e scrauso di una delle poche industrie birrarie sensate in Italia; per una lager migliore, si veda la Kronen, per una pils, la VIP.

Bottle purchased at the Ipercoop store in Kaštel Sućurac.
Poured a golden colour with uneven streams of carbonation and a thick white medium sized head that went away fast. The nose wasn’t bad. Malty, somewhat herbal, strong notes of honey. Ok lager, light taste. Honey, malt, bit grainy, a touch of cardboard, light herbal hopiness, no aftertaste. Not the worst light tasting lager around, especially considering the Italian standards.

Picked up in halifax, with John, plain regular lager nice kinda grainy aroma flavor is smooth and crisp nothing wild but drinkable

33 cL can. Pours pale clear yellow with a dense chalk white head. Dusty grainy aroma with a distinct note of cardboard. Flavour has the same in a rather uninspired blend with what was intended to be malt. No bitterness. Worse than water.

0.66 l bottle. Pours crystal clear golden color with medium smaller head. Sweetish aroma of some malts, with maybe just a hint of citrus hops if any. I thought it would be one of those nasty sweet lagers. But no, flavor was well balanced, maybe not bitter enough for a pilsener, but pleasantly light bodied, which could not be described as watery. Leaves very nice long finish, too, following the flavor. Nice surprise, definitely underrated comparing to many bad lagers.

chiara buona schiuma poco profuma a cerale poco luppolo fresca non impegnativa non è da buttare

Standard lager, standard boring taste. Wouldn’t be able to tell this apart from all the other boring lagers I’ve had. Slightly nastier skunky smell than average, though.

Bottle....pours a golden color with a frothy white head. Aroma faintly of hops, but not really. Taste is watery and slightly hoppy. Not worth another try.

Not much to say. Virtually no smell or taste. Light pilsner with a faint after taste. Not bad for a local brew.

Can. No specific aroma. Grainy flavor with apple. Boring standard lager that can only be brewed in a region where beers are only meant to quench a big thirst on a hot and humid day.
