Serve in Dimpled mug, English pint, Lager glass, Shaker

Pint in a UK pub (5%). Fizzy amber lager, very smooth and tasty. A good blend rather than any sharp flavours.

Nose is weak, bitter hops, sweet lemon, feel is watery, carb is medium, taste is lemon, bitter hops.

Poured clear gold colour with decent head and lacing. Yeast, grassy aroma, sort of typical euro style, but fairly mild. Light body with slight sweet flavour, but nothing much else. Nothing really offensive, but not very exciting.

Sweet and easy to drink, can leave a musty aftertaste, but is a refreshing beer.

250ml bottle. Pours clear golden with white head and recent lacing. Aroma is sweet grain and some mould. Sweet taste with a tiny hint of bitterness. Watery, medium carbonation.

Aranysárga szín és hosszan tartó kemény fehér hab. Enyhén malátás, kissé "kartonpapírra" hasonlító illat, az ízében is a maláta dominál, kissé édeskés, keserédes lecsengéssel. A kukorica, amit valamiért belekontárkodtak, szerencsére nem annyira erős zamatú, így nem teljesen reménytelen ital. Most mondanám, hogy egyszer-egyszer elmegy, esetleg valami sörözőben, de hát nem hiszem, hogy ne lenne jobb...

Bottled. Poured crystal-clear bright golden with a sticky white head. The aroma picked up mild skunk and toasty pale malts with airy, aspartame-like highlights. The flavor found pale malts and a bit of corn at the core.. dry bitterness surrounded along with a touch of malty sourness.. more of the artificial sweetener on the finish. Light-bodied and crisp on the palate (for the most part), but it got caught up with tackiness a couple times.. carbonation was high and tangy.. OK stuff.

french beer is something different. i tried this on tap in England was impressed
