2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Draught @ My City Helsinki, Helsinki Airport, Finland.
Most expensive 400mls of lager I’ve ever had at an airport weighing in at a whopping 12 euros. Bright orange gold, with an oil-like sheen and little evident life. Loose, frothy white head fades quickly. Big, buttery, toasted bread and pear drop nose with hints of guava and peach. Soft in the mouth, doughy and buttery slick in feel. Fresh baked white bread an toasted grains pretty much sum up the flavour profile. Drops off, crisp, astonishingly clean given the mouthfeel. Slightly tangy sour edge builds as it empties. Seems just plain ugh! And given the price I felt like I had successfully wasted too much money so one was enough!
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Clear golden color with a small white head. Malty aroma. Moderate sweet malty lager.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Golden, white head. Malty nose with sweet and metallic hints. Taste is more malt, some sweetness, some cardboardy notes, some very vague hops in the finish. Pretty standard pale lager fare, but not bad.
2.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
33cl bottle at home. Refreshing, bitter, a bit grassy, good carbo. A lot bettertasting than the Mythos I tasted just before.
1.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
33cl bottle. Pours golden with a small white head. Smells boiled vegetables and light malty. Tastes malty and bitter with a similar finish.

Small can. A bit deeper gold in colour than the average lager but still with only a minimal head. Grassy and metallic aroma. Taste is a bit muddy and grassy. Gets lost in the limbo between "average" and "not very good".
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Gushed when opened. Regular yellow pils colour with a fluffy white head. Smells grainy, malty, not a lot of smell. Tastes very grainy, soft and cheap, but it’s a nice change for once. Soft mouthfeel, nice carbo, thin body. Not a great beer, but it’s quite drinkable.
