The beer here isnt actually terrible. However browney points for the girl on the label she was notably nice, one to keep on the shelve.

Spicy aroma. Clear amber colour with no head. Bitter sweet flavour. Flate palate. Can see why men would like this one. But as I am of the opposite sex foun no interest in the bottle at all.

330ml bottle. Poured very light and clear with minimal foam lacing. Earty aroma of dried hay, not that unpleasant. Taste was okay but nothing to rave about. The label on the other hand is another story.

Bottle, bought @ Fish’n’Beer, Cph.
Pours very pale golden with a big, creamy, white head. Sweet malty aroma with some brewing cereal. High carbonation, okay mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet, a touch of metal and citric hops. Not magnificent, but not all bad. Some slight dryness in the finish.

Bottle from Ma and Pa Jenner, as ’Rubbel Sexy Lager’. Clean gold with a dense tufting head and lace. Wholemeal, hay and honey aroma very like a no alcohol. More sprucey hop presence than a Belgian macro, late flourish of wholemeal and popcorn. Not bad, not sexy..

What a bottle - depicting a bikini-clad sexy woman. Until, after a little, er, rubbing the bikini comes off. This beer needs a gimmick to be honest - it won’t win any prizes. Nice label, though!

Bottled (Bought from Willems@Grobbendonk). Dark golden/orange colour with big creamy off-white head. Aroma is really strong grassy hops along with yeast and fruits. Flavour is grassy, fruity and slightly caramelly and yeasty. Not the typical pils, quite much feeling like pils meets Belgian ale.

Bottled 33cl. It pours a surprisingly pale yellow beer with a small white head. Lively carbonation. Sweet malty nose with hints of breakfast cereals and honey. It reminds me a bit of a non alcoholic beer. Sweet with curvacious glories - the girl, not the beer. Sweet taste. Some lacework. Late discrete bitterness. A very light honey characterestic appearing. Faintly bitter finish. Decent.

UPDATED: MAR 5, 2003 pale golden colour, few foam, moderate hoppiness, grassy, medium-bodied, sweet, dry and slightly bitter herbal finish

Bottled. Straw gold, moderate head and condition. Delicate hops in the nose, low malt in the mouth and a sweet and clean finish with hints of chalkiness. Not undrinkable but I had more fun scratching off the bikini.
