Bottled. Pale yellow coloured. Clear. Dense white head. This is a very sexless beer. Dosn’t have much to offer. LIght sweetness and some artificial corn. I simply can’t find any character or life in this. Is watery and boring. But it dosn’t hurt anybody.

The best you can say about this beer is that it is cheap. Below standard lager that will only do if you are very thirsty. Hmm is it beer at all?

UPDATED: MAY 19, 2012 Clear light gold with one two finger head,lacing,poured into an etched bottem SS lager glass.Lots of lacing. lLght floral aroma mild and delicate along with fresh grain some mild sweetness and a bit of tart/sour apple,ligtht yeasty/breadiness. Taste is mildy sweet,smooth,light crisp apple a bit of butter with a light bitter with floral,sweetcorn maybe and a mild but tart bittering. Kind of a light creamy smoothness/grainyness./Some yeastyness, Slight metallic but light/watery but smooth and mildly appely. Seems to go flat and tasteless fast.Pretty good mild abv pale lager.Overall a pretty decent pale lager.

Golden colour, white quite nice looking head, good amount of bubbles. Hoppy smell, with bit sweetness. Taste is light, first aroma has got hops which give grass. Quite boring beer.

Poured from can. Aroma of corn husk and slight pepper. Pale gold, head stays. I taste metal, grass and cleaner. Bitter, but for the wrong reasons. This is horrible - one of the worst beers I’ve had in a while. Poured in drain after just a few sips.

Sampled from a 16.9 oz can this beer poured a heavily carbonated dark golden color with a large soapy yellow-white head that lingered and left decent lacing. The aroma was typical industrial tangy and sour malts with a touch of bread. The flavor was tart, tangy, citric and lightly bready. The beer turned dry and astringent on the finish. Light body and overcarbonated mouthfeel. Blah industrial beer.

500 ml can picked in Luxemburg. Looks like a basic lager. Aroma is weak thin corn. One of the worst I’ve tasted in a while. Tastes thin and metallic. Didn’t detect much corn, but it’s just not good.

Can; poured a dull gold color with a whitish head. Aroma of corn and a bit funky; maybe a touch of grass. Not a good aroma. Flavor wasn’t as bad; corn and not much else. Probably good for the style.

Pale gold, white head, some lacing. Nose is malts, cardboard and corn. Body is watery and thin, taste is mainly sweetish malts with metallic notes. Prickly carbonation. Nothing remarkable.

Can 33cl @Auchan. A clear pale yellow beer with low head. Nose is slightly and paper like. Aroma is low, high carbonation, low body, very metallic, nothing unforgettable, no hops.

green can with martens pilsner "premium pilsner" on label. pours a clear gold with a small white head. honey and cereal nose. drinks quite sweet and syrupy for the style. lots of malts. not bad, but nothing new.
