Fluffy white head, golden body. Quite fresh in the aroma, some citrus and hop. OK bitterness in the flavor, not bad just thin and ordinary. Sparkling.

transparent gold, moderate white ring, oily top. Skunked nose, light corn grass, actually considerable hops. Flavor is lightly grassy, nice hop, lightly dusty, corn. Decently carbonated, balanced. Not bad.

630mL green bottle thanks to Travlr. Pours clear straw. Weak white head. Skunky nose with trash, old apples, no sharp lemon or grass. Decent white lace. Taste is bland, watery, old apple sauce, tangy mineral water. Ugh. Exceptionally bland. Nothing too offensive.

Clear straw pour with no head. Sweet, crisp, and wholly inoffensive pilsener malt. Hints of vegetation and corn like sweetness.

Bland pale lager that is rather skunks, but its rather dry and not totally unpleasant. Lots of grassy hops and seltzer. Not bad for what it is.

Bottle shared by Travlr. Pours clear gold with a medium, fizzy white head, short retention with good lacing. Aroma is cereal and meal malt, spicy hops and old lager yeast. Flavor is malt and spicy hops with a dry finish. Light body, warmth and carbonation.

Bottle. Pours pale yellow with thin, fizzy white head; short retention and spare lacing. Aroma is butter, straw, plastic, honey, and barley. Flavor is bland straw with some light floral notes; crisp, light finish. Light body, medium carbonation, and low warmth.

Bottle shared by me, hahaha. Very pale yellow color, white coca cola head. Aroma of straw (the plastic kind) and wet paper. Taste is bitter cardboard. Non, merci.

Very refreshing on a warm Beninoise day. Has a slight hoppy and cereal aroma. Decent beer considering, but nothing to write home about.

Refreshing beer but nothing special. Aromas of grains and cereals. Good enough to drink by a hot Beninise summer !

Pours yellow and fizzy with a thin ring of bubbles. Smells floral and crisp with some sweet adjunctness. Tastes of adjunct heave with some processed hoppy hints and a crisp, dry finish. Not a bad beer.
