Much carbonation, some bitter very less basic, some very thin grain. No problem to finish a 500cl

Metalchopz (1429) - Quebec, CANADA - APR 4, 2012
Originally rated April 2005. Sampled from a green 330ml bottle with a best before date 09-2005. Pours a light golden colour with hardly any carbonation. The white head is quite descent though, and the lacing left is very nice. The aroma is grassy and metallic with hints of sweet malt. The taste is slightly bitter with a mildly sweet aftertaste. Not much punch, but still some taste to it. Very smooth mouthfeel. An o.k. pilsner-style lager for when driving, but you might want to stick to cola.

Bierkrug (1666) - Idar-Oberstein (In East Africa), Rhineland-Palatinate, GERMANY - AUG 29, 2010
330 ML can in Afghanistan. Pale golden, pours with a nice white lasting head. Smells of pale malt, slightly sweet, but not as sweet as some other beers of this type. Flavour was not all that offensive, wet cardboard, pale malt. At least the finish was nicely bitter. Well for an NA not so bad.
