2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
A clear, pale yellow pour with white head. The aroma is mostly hay, but there are some faint grassy hops. The light body has a watery texture and fizzy carbonation. It has a bland taste that completely disappears after about 2 seconds.

30th May 2006
Warning! Early amateur rating! Bottle in Vilnius as ’Aldaris Rock’. Abv 7.0% - not sure why this aliased here but oh well! Standard strong lager. Vague hints of brandy. Bitterish dry finish. Okay.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Shared bottle 8.10.2010. Clear, light golden with a white head leaving a fair lacing. Light malty and fruity aroma. Light sweet and bitter flavored. Light bodied. Watery.
Well balanced but not very interesting.

1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 6/20
1 pint can. (I’ve had a fair amount of this beer in years because it’s cheap and widely distributed around here.) Very pale yellow, almost green in colour. The taste is sour and bland, although apparently it’s fresh and not skunked. Rock? It should be called Metal because of the metallic taste. Actually, no, a drink called Metal should have at least 10% ABV. Interesting fact: it is better to drink it straight from the can because the stingy CO2 hides the blandness that this beer is. A macro lager made for "awesome kids" to get drunk, no enjoyment here.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20

Clear light to medium yellow color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is light moderate malty, grain, light moderate hoppy, green grass. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20100806]
