bierkoning (4603), La Tropica, Netherlands May 14, 2008 Can. Plusmarkt in Haaksbergen. Golden color. Malty aroma with a hint of toffee. Malty sweet flavor with a hint of butter and lots of fruity esters. Quite decent.

Can, 500 m
Appearance: Colour of dark pee, light amber, transparent, clear body, head is weak, foamy, no lacing, head is almost wattery, grey, very quickly decreasing, body is medium, carbonation is weak.
Aroma: Special, characteristic hint of apples (kosztele), can skunkness, chalky, wattery like the liquid of a mixture of soapand water to make a soap bubbles, alcohol is not strong, metallic, carbonation nose, artificial aroma, a little bit malty but it is hard to find any hops, rather old rotten desks of a barrel soaked long time in water.
Flavour: Very sweet, by far too sweet, wattery, alcohol flavuor, red grapes, apple, a little bit artificial squash of a cheap price, it tastes like a poor beer mixed with plonk, reminding aroma of cat’s wee, terrible, very strong alcohol boom, harsh on palate.
Palate: Gives harshness and very unpleasant after taste, somrthing of old socks or a rotten fruits, rather poor, the beer generally is better in balanced than Volt Strong.
larsniclas (2735), Gothenburg, Sweden May 1, 2008 Canned. Thx Jakub.
Golden with a white head.
Sour; typical standard pale lager.
Dry, vegetables (peas). Balnd and pretty revolting. martinboer (1284), Amsterdam, Netherlands Jan 24, 2008 Can from Chinese Night shop in Amsterdam. Gold colour. Some head. Malty lager taste. A bit of caramel. Watery mostly and grassy. Okay but not that enjoyable. JorisPPattyn (4246), Antwerpen, Belgium Dec 7, 2007 Darker metallic gold under good yellowish head. Sweet-smelling, grain, alcohol and some caramel. With the alcohol volatilizing, rather fresh-leafy smelling. Rather dry, near woody, quite malty, but with a caramelly finish, suggesting syrup - maltsyrup used? Whatever, it isn’t sweet, rather neutral and the alcohol makes it rather empty. Finishes empty after being more or less medium bodied. CO˛ impression, more than alcoholwarming. There’s worse. Alas.
