It turns out that I am immature and filthy-minded enough to buy a beer just because it almost has a funny name - God knows there’s really little else to recommend it appearance-wise. The label looks real cheap and frankly Greek beer doesn’t have the best reputation. Despite all this it’s actually quite a nice beer. It probably has enough malt character to warrant classification as a Helles, really. Nice spaghetti, biscuity, German-style maltiness in the aroma. More light biscuity fresh malt flavour with only enough hop to balance. Pretty light-bodied but it works well. Simple but really drinkable, though even VB tastes good after playing bball.

The best among all the other lagers produced in Greece. With a great value-for-money price is a must for every bbq party and camping! Liters of beer consumed, the same burp at the end.

Clear golden colour, white head. Weak aroma of cereal and faint hops. Watery palate, classic pale lager flavour, with a hint of cereal and a weak grassy hoppy finish.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dagan’s place. Thanks Oren. Clear golden with a small head. Aroma of slightly grainy malt and some grassy hops. Sweetish and slightly grainy flavor at first, finishes with mild noble hops bitterness. Light-bodied. Pretty clean and drinkable.

Undrikable. There is no reason to comment on this beer. It’s on my "worst list" probably.... No need to try it....

Clear blond to yellow coloured beer with small white head and no carbonation visible. Sweet herby aroma. Medium creamy and sparkling palate. Finish is granny with hints of citrus ending slight bitter sweet and dry.

Draught @Platanias, Crete. (can´t remember the name of the bar now). Poured hazy straw color with a lasting thick white unclean head. Cereal, corn, sweet aroma. Flavor had more cereal, malty, low bitterness. Drinkable, but not very much flavorvise.

Darker golden blond coloured beer with some very light carbonation and a small whitehead. Light sweet grainy and malty hinted aroma. Medium palate. Finish is sweet grainy and short malty touched.
