iammarc (193), Inverness, Scotland Jul 29, 2008 I’m guessing with this one, I was feckin’ wankered at the time of drinking it, woke up next morning to find it half drunk in the middle of the livingroom floor. Tried a bit and tasted of piss. Down the sink. Not bad otherwise. cellar (483), Dublin, Ireland Jul 14, 2008 hazy light golden with liny white head, notes of yeast, grain, some fruit and toffee. Flavour is sweet. Not much king nor cobra about it! JorisPPattyn (5155), Antwerpen, Belgium Jul 13, 2008 Huge, just off-white head, fluffy, fast disappearing over pale golden beer with a light hazy sheen. Pale malts, cookie malts and alcohol in the nose, spicy. Cheap alcohol flavour, sweet, scorched sugar, caramel-like. Little sourishness, fleeting. Rather well-carbonated, bit aggressive, burning MF. Kind of luxus version of a malt liquor. I hope Rodenbach gets payed well for having this lying around - beats me for what purpose. weaselkenievil (738), Cheshire, England Jul 6, 2008 I think this is a decent European lager. Much better than expected, the average Cobra is absolutely awful. I like lager which may be frowned upon by you beer geeks. Like I give a fuck. Crisp, sweet, hoppy. I liked it. chimplechamp (463), Oslo, Norway Jul 5, 2008 BOttle from londis. pours orange, golden, with a large white head that goes away really fast and leaves no trace. nose is grapefruit, bubblegum, hairspray, pine, citrus, and lemonrind. really sweet but there is balance. better than expected. nose is barnyardy, earth funk. madsberg (4873), Søborg, Denmark Jul 3, 2008 Bottled (Brewed by Impala Distillery and Brewery, Goa). Light golden coloured. Clear. Small off white head. Bready, grainy and sweet aroma. Flavour of rye bread, light herbs and fruits. Is not specially good and pleasant in aroma and flavour. Thin bodied. Bready and alcoholdense end. This is 61 IRS down the drain. azlondon (655), Fribourg, Switzerland Jul 1, 2008 Appearance: Pale yellow. Quite hazy. Lots of head.
Aroma: Fruity. Bit of hops and malt.
Taste: Quite hoppy, some fruit. Strong aftertaste.
Info: 750ml bottle, 23/3-2007 ChainGangGuy (2522), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Jun 28, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, yellow body with a respectably-sized, white head.
Smell: Pale maltiness, some light floral hints and minor notes of grapes, citrus, and the honey you’d find in a squeeze bottle shaped like a bear.
Taste: Smooth pale maltiness with a mild, restrained honeyish sweetness. A few drops of orange juice, a dash of white grape juice. Faintly floral hoppiness with a tremendously mild bitterness. Small pinch of acidity. Hint of white pepper. Drying, yeasty finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. Odd, questionably chalky mouthfeel to it.
Drinkability: Not altogether horrendous, but make no mistake, it’s no Malheur Brut by any stretch of the imagination.
