330 m. bottle. Clear glolden colour, medium head with that dissappears quickly, leaving rings on the glass as you drink. Smell is nothing but grain and hops. Light palate, watery. Taste of grains, herbs and it reminds me somehow of Heineken because of some taste of pear. Metallic notes and some citrus in the end. Just your average mass market beer.

I had this at Global Brew. I thought this was a nice smooth tasting pilsner. I would drink this again. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

25cl bottle. A decent pilsener. Nothing special.

JesseM (1124) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 1, 2013
Many cans in Ypres/Ieper. Decent walking-around-Ypres beer but it’s yet another largely flavourless Euro trash beer that you can get literally anywhere for less than water. This also had a somewhat harsh finish that stood out more against the cripplingly bland background.

maley1 (476) - calgary, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 14, 2013
Straw colored pour with small white head. Aroma of malts, wheat and slight hops. Taste of malts, corn and faint hops with a slightly dry finish. Not good.

PriorL (309) - BELGIUM - MAY 6, 2013
25cl bottle. Appearance: clear blonde beer, little carbonation, unstable white head. Nose: malts, little lemon, lots of grains. Taste: not the average pilsener in my opinion. It has a lot more taste in it. Lots of malts which give a nice and dry effect. Downside, the taste goes away rather fast and besides the dry out effect, there hardly anything in the beer, besides the somewhat metallic taste off course... But a good pilsener though.

ElDesmadre (999) - Mikołów, POLAND - MAY 6, 2013
Draught. Pretty standard eurolager fare, only with a more pronounced bitterness. Aroma light malty with hoppy notes. Boring but drinkable.

Beergeek23322 (530) - Chesapeake, Virginia, USA - APR 28, 2013
From a can on a flight across the Atlantic. Pretty basic pilsner that poured straw yellow with a white head. Malty and hoppy flavors. Nothing special.

Pale, golden, a lot of white foam, medium carbonation. Nothing special, no character, no complexity, unbalanced. But easy drinkable.
