330ml bottle. Didn’t even work on a hot summer day. Looked pretty nice but tasted quite horrible.

Drank from the can at the bus station in Likasi, DR Congo, after I found it at a supermarket in Lubumbashi. Aroma of okay lime and bread. Has a decent head (I could tell from pouring some on the ground), okay light yellow body. Flavour is a very light beer taste & a lime finish. Slightly watery palate. It’s not bad for what it is.

Bottle @ home. Clear golden color, small white lacing on top. Smell malts and indeed lime. Pretty fresh smell, though not really beer-like. I’m trying this while I just got back from working out at the gym, so it’s probably not my most objective rating ever. I quite like it. Think this is an ideal summer beer. Very cold straight from the fridge it’s not gonna be a punishment to drink this. Probably in all other circumstances it more or less is. Anyway, it’s beer-like at best, with indeed very clearly a touch of lime.

Canned filth. Tastes like a horrible liquidification of cornflakes. No redeeming qualiities at all.

To beer or not to beer? cannette de 25cl, une bière qui sent bon l’eau de brassin avec des notes de citron et de malt. Couleur dorée claire, mousse blanche. Le tout est très gentil, rafraichissant après une journée dehors à tondre la pelouse. Pas dégeu, garde ce profile de brassin avec juste la note de citron pour rendre cela désaltérant même sans alcool. Cette dernière reste meilleur que pas mal de pale lagers et de pils du même style, et c’est cela que mon score veut refléter.

Bottled. Yellow colour with small white head. Aroma is lime, cardboard, some mild grains as well as hay. Flavour is lime, cardboard, some grains as well as some mild hayish notes. Quite standard non-alcohol taste, except for the limelike notes.

J ai gouter cette biere en belgique, je fais attention mon poid et à mon taux de glucose vu que je suis diabètique et cette bière n’est pas bonne

Dusty, year-out-of-date tin found in the Jenner’s outhouse. Incredible what you can find out there. Gold with a tall scummy head. Straw and toilet cleaner aroma. Toasted grain and soapy lime flavour with a lick of sweetener. Nothing unbearable. Tastes like flat low cal lemonade with a wedge of lime. Finishable.

Bottled. A golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has light notes of malt and citrus. The falvor is sweet with notes of cardboard. The body is thin.
