Pale straw colour, low head retention. Clean malt aroma with low noble hop character. Palate is clean, medium bodied and refreshing. A typical good easy drinking German lager.

At Big box Getrankenhalle in Emlichheim Germany, bottle 500ml, golden, thin head, full grainy one with hinds of bread, butter and bisquits.

Pours a straw gold in the glass. Nose is slightly floral pine. Taste is pine and bread. Rated 1/24/2000

Compliments of SkyCop32. Pours a golden yellow with a white head. Aromas of bread/malts/hops. Crisp flavor with hints of hop/malt.

500ml bottle (labeled "Hansa Pure Quality" rather than "Export"). Pours golden with a large white head, lively carbonation and much lacing. Nose is piney hops and biscuit malt. Taste is the same with a firm crisp body. Finish is medium and balanced. Very drinkable, thirst quencher.

Bottle. Golden with thin foam. Aromas are grain and light citrus with hints of caramel. Cardboard with some corn. Flavours are grain with damp notes. Dry on the finish. Over carbonated. Mediocre.

Pour form a 16 oz bottle. Light yellow brew with three fingers of white head. Some lcing on the glass. Not much in the flavor dept - a little malt, a little hops, a slightly mineral-water dry finish. Nothing offensive here.

500ml bottle from First Choice (labelled "Hansa Pure Quality" rather than "Export"). Looks bright golden with a dense white head that reduces to a persistent collar of foam. Nose is grainy malts with sweetcorn and a faint hint of citrus/grassy hops. Taste is the same with a light-medium body and a very easy drinkability which I guess is the point for this style of beer.
