Poured a pale golden colour with a thick small white head that went away fast. Light nose, dry yet sweetish and slightly cardboardy maltiness mingling with some acidic vegetable-like hop notes. The taste is more of the same when it comes to hops, acidic and vegetabley. Some sweet vaguely honeyish maltiness too. The hop does give out some bitterness near the end, mixing with the carbonation bite. A typical Austrian macro lager, if anything.

Light sweet malty aroma. Clear golden color (unexpectedly nice color). White head, quickly done. Light sweet, light sour. Light body.

Wässrig herber Antrunk mit im Mittelteil steigender Würzigkeit. Diese ist im Mittelteil angenehm wenn auch recht mild. Hellmalzig, erfrischend – trinkbar. 8/6/8/8/8/7

Bottle. Golden colour with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of malt and hops.

14/08 0.33 l bottle from a Hofer, Villach. It poured yellow body with smaller head. Herbal and corn aroma, weaker water flavor, slightly sour corny and flowery malty. Grainy a bit as well. Thinner body with longer acidic rather ugly finish. Drinkable anyway, but not something one could possibly enjoy. Typical lower end supermarket pale lager.

Bottle from supermarket in Hainburg. Golden color with small white head. Aroma of grass, malt. Taste pretty the same. Boring.

0.33 l bottle from an Aldi in Bp. Clear golden coloured stuff with a small white head, which collapses quickly. The sweetish smell brings some dough and spice in the nose. Tasteing begins with a light sharpness, mouthfeel’s o.k. Malty (biscuits) aroma with moderate grass and yeast, flavour’s fruity. The rather abrupt, sweetish and light dry finish is escorted by a hoppy spicyness. Drinkable brew.

0.5L can from Aldi (Hofer). An averege commercial beer. Foam disappears in a minute, but taste is good without radicals. Averege CO2, medium sweet, a little hop, clear malt and nothing more.

Pale golden coloured, small white head that went away fast, hint of cardboard in the nose. Few streams of carbonation. Honeyish malty, weak hoppy and grainy with notes of cardboard. One-dimensional and boring beer.
