Canned(330ml). -such a bad beer even for Italia, pale yellow with no head, watery and metallic

Hop malt aroma. Clear amber colour with poor head and no lacing. Bitter malt hop flavour. Flat palate.

Wässrig frischer Antrunk, minimal würzig was aber schnell versiegt. Im Mittelteil eigentlich nur wässrig, höchstens eine leichte Herbe ist hintergründig erkennbar. Eine spürbare Tiefphase - auch wenn es noch keinen Hochpunkt gab. Im Abgang herber, leicht bitter, immerhin leicht würzig. Das Bier schmeckt nicht besser als ich es erwartet habe... Test vom 27.9.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 5,5,8,4,4,4 - 4,85

79c 660ml bottle. Decent foresty aroma with soap, spruce, grain and grassy hutch notes, marzipan dabs. Actually want to drink this. Again that licked stamp staleness, conifer, fizz turning to sog, occasional metal, but grass and reasonable pilsy bite. Not terrible.

Bottled. A rather cheap lager, but there is nothing bad about it. This is stuff that Carlsberg would try to pass off as premium in Norway.. A store clerk in Parma tried to make me buy a better beer instead! Watery, but with a decent malt/hops balance.

UPDATED: JUN 21, 2005 Bottled. 4,7% version (prodotta ed imbottigliata da Castello di Udine s.p.a. - San Giorgio di Nogaro UD - ITA). Light and evanescent foam. Yellow pale color, shiny and barely bubbly. Light scent, watery and malty rumors. Acceptable taste; refreshing and with a good bitter. In short not of special.
