What is there to say really? Imagine what you think this would taste like. That’s it, just like that, well done.

Drinkable and only £1 for a 500ml bottle. Mostly tastes of biscuity malt and a light floral touch. Nice on the palate but not much else to recommend.

Herb-süßer Antrunk. Dabei verstärkt sich unpassenderweise die Süße, wenig Hopfen. Spritzig. Trinkbar. 9/10/10/9/9/9

Medium gold with a soapy, lasting, white head. Smells of dry hops, stale malt and caramel. Lemon Thin light body. Tastes of biscuit, toasted malt, with a metallic harsh slightly herbal pine finish. The finish is too harsh for me to enjoy. Chemical and nasty.

Not a world beater, but a very pleasant supermarket lager. Not much of an aroma, but a light crisp taste that is very drinkable. Its reasonably priced and value for money.

Bottle. Pours a golden colour with a thin white head, not much of a aroma some malt, the taste is bitter with some malt and a dry finish.

Bottled. A golden beer with a little off-white pool of head. A bit of a sickly floral pilsener. Sweet saaz hops. Plenty of puke and a bit of fart in the nose. Flowery hops mellow. It’s drinkable.

50cl bottle. Amber with a loose white head - quite highly carbonated; fresh, grassy aroma; crisp malty flavour - typically Pilsner-style; and a lightly bitter spritzy finish with some honeyed sweetness. Excellent value for money.

Deep gold with moderate carbonation and a frothy white head. Light, slightly sweet cereal aroma with a herbal edge. More malts in the flavour with some herbal and peppery notes leading to a soft finish. Fine.

A - skunky from across the room... A - Light gold, frothy head T - Skunkieness kills it all P - thin O - Add it to the list
