3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Boabby (1) - Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - JUL 2, 2010 does not count
Purchased in glass bottles from several bars in Rusko Selo, Serbia. Grassy and refreshing, not too fizzy. No bitter after-taste. Well worth a try.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Nickls (1652) - SE DC, Washington DC, USA - JUN 25, 2010
(Old BA rate - can)
Pours with a bubbly white head that disappeared so quickly that I barely had a chance to observe it; orangey-yellow urine color (sorry but that’s my best descriptor for it). Grassy hop notes that lean toward a bit of spiciness as well, but very much in a macro lager type of way; fain whiff of fresh bisccuits, but all muted and bland aroma. Eh, boring and bland. Hop notes don’t carry through to the taste; some light maltiness and breadiness. That’s all really. Thinner to medium for the style; and very slight carbonation. I mean I could drink this and not be too offended throughout, but a brainless Euro lager with little in the way of anything interesting. Overall, just average even against what’s expected for the Pale Euro Lager range.

2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 rand (1000) - SWITZERLAND - APR 22, 2010
Can 50 cl from Denner in Neuchâtel (CH). Shiny blonde with collar of white foam, almost without crackling. Smell bittersweet, herbaceous, nice bitterness of hops. Round and dry at the same time, it spreads out on the bitterness.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 ha1ag (645) - Maastricht, NETHERLANDS - APR 11, 2010
Golden color with thin white head, no lacing. Aroma has malts and hoppy and hints of straw. Flavour is dominated by malts with hay and hops. Dry, crisp beer, without the usual eastern EU side-effects. Refreshing!
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Joakgust (583) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - APR 2, 2010
Bottle, 33cl - Clear pale yellow beer with a small head. Aroma is malty with sourish notes of grass and herbs. Flavor is malty with notes of bread, grass and cooked vegetables. Not all that bad actually.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 9/20 AlbertC (265) - Göteborg, SWEDEN - FEB 15, 2010
Refreshing lager with a lovely tagline on the bottle "sad ili nikad", now or never. Well taste is a bit malty with moderate bitterness. A nice lager, the best among serbian beers in my eyes.
