COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
First brewed in 1938.
It is a light alcohol drink with not too strong bitterness but rather soft taste; therefore, it's easy to drink it up.

Pretty much the same as the RS Light I just rated but a little more bitter and a little less drinkable. Just not a good beer. Bitter bitter bitter without the hop flavor.

Bottle: Typical Lager Aroma, Pours a light yellow, with some head... more than typical lagers, with a mildly sweet finish.. Fizzy Palate..Overall drinkable but non-complex...

Bottle 330ml at home. </br> pours pale yellow with decent white head. Aroma is typical mass produced lager. A tiny bit fruity in taste, with a good mouthfeel.

Bottle, part of an import bottle pack I received as an Xmas present. I know I’ve had this before, but I guess I’ve never rated it...time to tick it off the list, apparently. Pours a very clear white/gold. Looked almost like carbonated water as it was coming out of the bottle. Pretty standard macro lager flavor. Thin, watery, straw, wheat flavors. Pretty bleh.

adnielsen (3102) - Denver, Colorado, USA - DEC 25, 2010
Bottled in Vail, Colorado. Pours a pale yellow appearance with a small white disappearing head. Pale malts and a bit of skunkiness. Basic pale lager body with some sweetness. Ok pale lager.

Bierkrug (1639) - Idar-Oberstein (In Senegal), Rhineland-Palatinate, GERMANY - DEC 22, 2010
250 ml bottle in Germany. Pours a pale yellow with no head. Aroma is a weak floral scent. Taste contains the slightest hops bitterness, but is closer to club soda than beer. It had hints of skunk but redeems itself a bit by lacking in the macro chemical aftertastes that plague USA "cheap stuff". Still stay away.

Bottle pours gold with a white head. Finally a pale lager in my series that is actually drinkable.

Mouthfeel is funny, quite a lot of CO2. A bit weird aftertaste with a hint of aluminium. Really easy to drink.
