Japalo (296) - DENMARK - MAY 19, 2011
Non aromatic with homeopatic cereal touch. Thin head and body. Watery taste with faint hop tones. A beer only for thirst killing!

crossovert (2543) - Wisconsin, USA - MAR 16, 2011
Hoppier and more robust than I expected. Not bad for an EPL. But then again it is an EPL.

JoeinEscazú (1120) - San Jose, COSTA RICA - MAR 11, 2011
More character than your average international pale lager. Has a definite malty sweetness and body to it. Light resinous bitterness, accentuated by bottle-skunking. Not my thing, but not unpleasant.
