Bottle@Home. Very grainy aroma. Pale golden colour, white irregular head, few lace. Sweetish, light bitter, light malty, light grainy, quite neutral. Light bodied. Refreshing, drinkable but nothing interesting.

330 ml can @ home. Pours light clear gold with medium foamy white head and lots of bubbles from carbonation. Weak aroma has distant notes of malt, metal, hay and yest. Watery mouthfeel but strongly carbonated. Not sweet. Very very mild taste has distant notes of malt, hay and cardboard. Very unbalanced. Like drinking carbonated water.

One of the most unpleasant beers I have ever tasted. Watery, metallic, no aftertaste, just nothing.

0.5l can. This pours a extremely pale yellow fizzing little body with a small light creamy white lager-head. Aroma is light malty with some mild sour hints and notes of some dusty hops. Watery mouthfeeling, lively carbonation and quite light-bodied. Tastes mild and malty, notes of grains and hints of butter in the finish. Really nothing extraordinary and definitely no flavor-bomb this..

Very light straw colour. Smells a little bit like corn flakes. Very watery. There isn’t much character to this one. Not much right about this beyond the wateriness - bad even among its Euroswill peers.

0.5L can, 0.58€. Hmmm expecting nothing here. Pale yellow, little head with medium persistence. Faint aroma of malts. Quite dry, watery, very metallic, bittersweet, thin bodied.

Tall can from Paphos. ewwwwww ugly. hardly any head at all, and skanky gold color. husky pale malt aroma with industrial sludge accents. Tastes like hydrogen peroxide mixed with industrially produced lemon curd, then poured over cornflakes. Goes down ok. Not a drain pour, only winced once.

Not much head in this one. Golden, pale yellow colour. Metallic, grassy aroma. Watery, metallic flavour. Will not buy this again. Ever.

330 ml can. Finland.
Clear pale golden colour with small white head. Very mild malty aroma with metallic notes. Flavour is malty, sweet and mildly skunky. Fizzy and watery.

330 ml can. Rated @ 3.4.2010.
Pours a golden colour with a small white head. Stinging malts, butter and caramel malts on the nose. Flavour of decent maltiness, light hoppiness and something skunky. Watery and unpleasant finish.

Canned 0,50L. Limpid yellow color, much clear and with discreet bubbly aspect. Compact head but realy much fading. Metallic aroma, light, with light notes of dampen cereals. Little balanced taste, much watery with notes similar to aluminum and dried grass.
