Can of 500 ml, poured into a shaker typeof glass. ABV on the can 4.2%, also is advertised as a lager. Pale golden colour, with a thin white head, quickly gone. Some bubbles rising to the top. The head leaves no lacing at all. Sweet, malty aroma. That’s it. Taste, just what you expect from your typical pale lager. The maltiness overcomes the hoppiness and in combination with the use of other cereals and hop extract (as mentioned on the can) makes this beer rather sweet. A faint malty taste lingers on the aftertaste too. The body is very light, almost watery, and the carbonation is relatively high. Still, those characteristics make this beer highly drinkable. It’s just a warm day here and I enjoy this one, I imagine on a even hotter day this one would work miracles. So, high drinkability, low price, perfect for a hot day, I’ll give it a high grade overall.

50cl can from jumbo. Thin white head. Pale clear golden pour. An ok pils.

Can: Can says 4.2% alcohol. Light airy light vast but quick disappearing white head on top of a clear yellow colored beer. Leaves a half open sticky airy lacing. Smell corn, sweat, barley malts, bread, smells not that nice at all. Taste iron, bread, dough, hint of something yeasty, light bitter and some malts. Low to medium carbo, watery mouthfeel, low to lightly medium body and a watery texture. This seems to be the watery version of Schülten brau.

UPDATED: APR 23, 2012 Discreta. Birra da bere quando non si ha di meglio da fare che scolarsi una bottiglia pensando a quanto sia bella la vita del "dolce far niente". Anonima, con picchi floreali e una maltatura che sopprime la luppolatura quasi assente. Indubbiamente si fa bere allegramente. Ma non è di certo una birra impegnativa o che vi farà gridare "Alleluia, è proprio buona".
