Bought it for the bottle - a stellar blue glass that won’t even come close to helping this beers scores.... Yellow brew with a bright white cap that died quicker than my enthusiasm for drinking this. it did leave a disaster on my glass though! Grainy and sweet but somewhat clean. Fragrant... hey. this isn’t awful! Very malty. Taste wise I can do this quickly so I can chug the rest of the beer and then try to go and get some skin. An average or better Euro preemo lager. Bit of a swimming pool after taste on big sips. **add on - after trying to finish the bottom half of my glass I realize that this sucks and anything including Drano might be more satisfying.** Drinkable, thick and malty for a lager, all malts it seems. I’d give this more of a fair shake but I just heard the door open......

330ml unique blue glass bottle pours a pale golden color with a small white head that leaves only small traces of lace on the glass. Aroma is grassy with some cereal grains. Taste is light malty sweet with light hop bitterness. Light body with light carbonation. Typical macro lager qualities.

Clear golden colour with a white head. Weak aroma with some cereal, caramel, grassy hops. Light watery palate. Neutral slightly bitter flavour with cereal.

Pours clear yellow with a thin head. Aroma is slightly floral, smells like any other euro lager. Flavour is floral and hopy slightly skunky. Not a bad brew but it is a little dull. Standard Euro lager.

330ml blue bottle. Gold pour with some haze. White head with a fairly creamy bead, some nice lacing. Some sharp grainy aromas with a little caramel and also some grassy hops. Taste is bready malt, light caramel. Grassy end, dryish, light bitterness. Softer body than expected, decent level of carbonation, decent drinkability. Overall, better than I was expecting, and this is quite a bit better than Mythos, Marathon or Alfa as far as well known Greek brews go.

Golden colour. Lagery aroma with light hops and slightly bready-doughy malts. Medium body, but the flavours are thin. Drinks quick, with low bitterness and an off-dry finish. The malts are weak, slightly biscuity.
