(Canned, "Swissbeer Collection, Appenzell A. Rh.", I have no idea which beer this really is.) Clear, paleish golden color with a small head. Sweet, corny-malty aroma with some vegetables. Sweetish flavor with corny hints and quite evident aromatic but harsh hops. Quite smooth, light-bodied palate with fizzy carbonation. A bit harsh and quite light pale lager, but at least it has some hops in it. The flavor gets some toffee character when warmed up.

Ein herber und kräftig würziger Geschmack setzt sich von Anfang an fest und bleibt auch im Mittelteil bestehen. Der Nachgeschmack schmeckt komisch, mild, hopfig, nussig, aber irgendwie ist da noch was, das ich leider nicht genauer definieren kann. Stimmig wirkt das Bier und süffig isses auch. Eigentlich gar nicht mal so schlecht. Test vom 9.12.2005, Gebinde: Dose Noten: 10,11,13,9,10,12 - 11,25

Can 500ml. A golden lager with a thin very lacing white head. Hardly any bitterness. Too sweet and too flat.

A bite of a toasty character, but fairly boring and mainstream..............

Can, 4.8%. Subtle caramelly aroma, seems a little spicy. Clear golden colour. Small stable white head. The flavour is a little bready, faint hint of grain. A standard pale lager.

Keg (Brasserie Federale, Zurich)
Dusty malty aroma; makes us choke it’s so dusty. Crisp carbonation, but a watery palate .Some aromatic bitterness, but also burning plastic retronasals. Bland lager taste, but at least both malt and hops are present.
