Bottle green, 500 ml, rated in Bogacs, Hungary.
Appearance: Pours milky yellowish, very fizzy and opaque body, totally not seetrough. I would say even muddy in texture, head is greyish white, initially medium, quickly disappearing, very unstable and frisky, beer looks very dynamic at the beginning but becomes pretty dull quickly after.
Aroma: Nice lemony front, very citrusy, not overly sweet but quite like a regular lemonade, as for only 2% of alcohol it is felt too strongly, notes of citric accid, lime, lemon, orange,sugar, quite tolerable as for a Fruit Beer, refreshing and inviting to drink.
Flavour: Nice refreshing citrusy, aromatic front, typical for a lemonade tasting Radler, quite easy going with clean and weak lemony-grainy flat aftertaste. Not much to wriet about, rather simple, refreshing, good to serve sa a taste quancher. Finish duration is short to medium.
Palate: Body is light, texture is wattery, carbonation on palate is lively, finish feel is gently astringent but very clean and almost neutral.

Sampled in Innsbruk. Not sure how to rate this beer. Its hardly a brew anymore. Its much more a sprite than a beer, but its not bad and refreshing on a warm day. Worth a try, but the carbonation is very big. Worth a try, but a bit harsh.

Bottle. Weak lemon aroma. Unclear light yellow-green colour with white head. Sweet flavour. Very much like a lemo soda.

Limonádé egy kis sörrel bolondítva.Nem az én világom de másnaposan napindítónak megfelelő lehet,de csak ezért nem fogom utána törni magam.

New brand on the hungarian beer market, called Gösser Natur Zitrone. Interesting one, because this beverage is not the same as the other detergent characteristic beermixes. It has rather a character like a lime juice, but it has the beer too. It has a lemony appearance with a small white head. Fine sourish citrus in the aroma, lemony flavor with a light malty beer character. Refreshing lemony beer mix on the beach... Nice between the beermixes. My rate shows this.

It’s perfect for radler lovers, i recommend it especially for my friend Gyuri. It’s very refreshing, when you are on road. It’s like limonade, but not more.

Can (BB 05/2009). Hazy pale yellow color, vanishing white head. Sweetish lemony aroma. Sweet-sour and sugary lemon juice, soda pop flavor. Light malty notes, otherwise no beer found.

Canned. Hazy yellow colour, not much head. Aroma is lemon, mild paper and some wet clots. Flavour is lemon, citrusfruits and actually very natural lemon. Fruitbomb with some slight sourness lurking. One of the better Radlers around.

Bottle, 2.0%. Very cloudy pale yellow colour. Unstable white head. Very nice lemon flavour, contains real lemon juice, which is very apparent. Quite sweet. The best Radler ever.

How should I rate this "beer?" It tastes exactly like lemon soda with a slight beer aftertaste. But since it is 60% lemonade, should that be shocking?
