An EXTREMELY substandard brew with a weedy/coppery flavor. The body is everything that one would expect from Budapest tap water. This brew is one to avoid.

500 ml can. Budapest, Hungary.
Clear pale golden colour with small to average size white head. Weak aroma of nothing. Maybe some mild sweetness. Flavour is weak grainy. Stale. Utterly useless beer.

500ml can. Metallic, corny taste, alcoholic smell, disappearing foam, low CO2. Absolute bad beer.

Can, 4.0%. Pale yellow colour. Small white head. Thin flavour, hint of grain. A little watery, but surprisingly clean.

Now comes the hungarian cheep beer market, firstly with that stuff. Pale yellow beer with no head ( i’ve had a little white head, but it diminishes so quickly...) The aroma is weak with an unpleasant grassy hop, maize. Must i taste it? The flavor is watery like a soft drink or a simple carbonated water with a little but unpleasant hop like a bit of straw. Terrible aftertaste. No more!

0.5l can bought... somewhere in Budapest, shared with heavy.
Poured a pale yellow-golden colour with a small white head that went away fast. Weak, weak nose, only some sweaty dusty hop. The taste is damn weak too. Light lime that turns into something ugly... between sulphur and popcorn. Biting mouthfeel. Summary: the little you can taste turns into corny, ugly crap. Faint crap but crap.

I thank to Doggythedog for tasting this beer among others! It came in 0.5 l can which poured pale golden body with tiny head. Aroma is obviously typical for Hungarian beer, malty with some ugly cooked corn notes. Flavor follows it, sweet pale malt, corn of course, very watery and boring. Finish was pretty short as well, with some sharp sour notes. Another boring and poorly made beer again.

Canned. Pale golden, no head. No aroma. Sweet with medium body and clean mouthfeel. No bitterness. Inoffensive, but industrial and boring.
