Belgian Macro-Brews are much like American. Taste is sacraficed for production. Its a shame. This beer was drinkable, but not much more needs to be said about it.

Pours a golden color from the tap with plenty of carbonation and a soapy white head. Smells like flour. Medium bodied for a pilsner, yet with the faint taste of yeast and straw. A little too plain, but fairly refreshing.

Pours clear pale and golden with a foamy fast fading head. Metallic hints through a dry bitterness. Skunky cheap pilsener.

Golden colour, nice head, but it lasts just for a minute. Aroma is malty, with some fruity hints. The flavour is watery, too sweet and malty, not balanced by a hoppy bitterness and this is bad for a pils.

25 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a creamy white head. Classic cornish acidic aroma. Clean malty and vague bitterhops presence with a minimal yeast and metallic note. Medium dry and bitter finish, mild earthy. Classic pilsner - no more no less.

On tap. Typical Belgian pilsener with a bit of a cardboard taste. Smells a bit skunky. Drinkable.
