Had this with the Philly chapter of the Devonshire Knights. Pour similar to the regular Lager, pale yellow, small head kind of fizzy. Mix of corn and grains with hops thrown in. Dry finish with a little bitterness. Ok but not a drinker for me.

500ml bottle (Rimi, Tallinn)
Pale yellow, dishwater head. Slightly sweet plasticky lager aroma. Not too fizzy, which is nice from a bottled lager - rare to give such a beast 3, to be honest. One initial kick of something reminiscent of some sweetie I used to eat when I was a kid, and a hint of alcohol, but after that, it mellows down to be quite drinkable. It’s more malt oriented than many cheap pale lagers, which means that there’s not so much of the nasty cheap hop extract. Slips down pretty OK for a while. The slightly tacky drying late finish stops it from being something I’d want to drink a second pint of though.

Bottle from nestalgia. Utterly disgusting in every way. Aroma is metalic cardboard, alcohol, skunky grainy mess, honestly one of the poorest iv ever had. Taste is similarly awful, i couldnt drink it as hard as i tryed to, 2/3rds went down the drain, and thats very very rare with me.

Bottle. Frothy white good mostly lasting head. Pale yellow colour. Light malty and hoppy aroma. Light bitter flavor. Short but nice light bitter finish. Watery palate. Actually a well-balanced nice pale lager.
