Bomber at the gurkha cafe. Golden with no head. Aroma of caramel and bready yeast notes. Similar taste, has some flavor, malty. Not the worst lager I’ve had

JohnRMurdoch (1382) - Glasgow, SCOTLAND - JUN 28, 2010
660ml bottle from Beers of Europe. In a similar vein to Bangla from the same brewery. Disappointing that it wasn’t brewed in Nepal. Aroma of straw & hops. Pale golden yellow colour. Biscuity hop flavour. A nice pale lager in a pretty bottle, perfect partner for a vegetable curry.

imdownthepub (7131) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - APR 26, 2010
Bottle, 330ml from Beers of Europe, Norfolk. Hazed yellow gold with white head. Straight into a cardboard, vanilla, tinny notes, heavily carbonated. Poor stuff.

Maria (7805) - Thisted, DENMARK - APR 19, 2010
It’s warm golden and the head is white. The aroma has notes of malt, light flower and cabbage. The flavour has a moderate sweetness and notes of malt, flower and a slightly dry and very light bitterness.

BeerChaser0078 (846) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - NOV 7, 2009
Bottle. Slightly hazy golden pour with a short white head that quickly shrinks to surface cover. Grainy nose has slight citrus notes. Flavour is also grainy with hints of grass, hops and sweetness. Light body with a little bitterness and a short finish. Not particularly nasty but it isn’t difficult to find better lagers.
