Comments: A bad idea that is quite well executed. It comes in a clear bottle with a lime wedge! Sweet and corny indeed, but not offensive. Quite innocent in fact. You can hardly believe after tasting their zwickl that this is twice as expensive!
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Geiserich (2340) - Vienna, AUSTRIA - APR 12, 2006
Bottled beer, "corona style" brewed with corn
Very sweetish, corny aroma. Fresh and grainy. Clear golden color, lievely carbonation, quickly diminishing head. Sweet and corny/grainy flavor. Watery, empthy end, light dry finish. Quite nice try, but not really a similarity to corona.
