Barely drinkable. Sour and bitter with a completely unbalanced sweetness. No thanks!

Pours a clear pale gold with practically no head. Aroma is vegetal and grainy. Watery flavour of grain, pale malt and a hint of lime.

Giftgrüne Farbe. Süßer, aber annehmbarer Antrunk, eine verhaltene Herbe ist im Antrunk und im Nachgeschmack erkennbar. Im Mittelteil gibt es keine Überraschungen, süß, leicht fruchtig, was etwas künstlich wirkt. Im Nachgeschmack ist neben dem angesprochenen herben Touch auch zu erkennen, dass hier Süßstoffe am Werk waren. Auch bleibt eine unangenehme Note am Gaumen kleben, erinnert an eine Aspirin Tablette. Alles in allem eigentlich ein normales Radler, geht durchaus in Ordnung. Test vom 18.1.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,8,8,7,11,8 - 7,90

Bottle. Strong limeade aroma with a hint of grass. Clear yellow-green color with moderate head. Sweet lime soda initially with a mild hint of the typical Jever hops in the finish. Tasty - as usual with these I wish the beer flavor came out more.

Oh my god. Hahahaha wow, who buys this? Poured with a sudsy white head and no lace. Color is a bizzare clear green. Aroma is skunk (clear glass bottle), fake lime. Flavor is like nose and is like cheap lime candy. This Has to be a recipe for a hangover. Body is ok and so is carbonation. Finish is way too long.

Bottle clear glass, 33cl. @ home.
Clear yellow - lime green color with a small to average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white to lime green head. Aroma is moderate cabbage water, light synthetic lime. Flavor is moderate synthetic sweet with a average duration. Body is light, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20081225]

Clear yellow with a medium off white head. Very sweet aroma with nothing but lime. Flavour likewise and it finished sweet. I think I would actually like the style if cut down on the lemon. To dominating really.

33 cL clear bottle. Pours clear yellow to pale green with a bubbly whit/green head. Aroma is citric/lime aroma. Sweet initial flavour with a solid citric base. Lemonade citric finish.

33cl bottle. Looks and smells like cheap limeade; no noticable beer taste, but a quinine bitterness. Nothing more than an alcopop, and a weak one at that.

The bottle looks good. For a lemon not bad. The beer tastes not as chemical as others of this style. But also very sweet. I don’t really like it.
