Bierkrug (1639) - Idar-Oberstein (In Senegal), Rhineland-Palatinate, GERMANY - JAN 21, 2012
330 ML can shared with DW and Bottleman in Idar-Oberstein, Germany. Pale yellow, decent white head which fades to a small layer and leaves fair lacing. Aroma is of noble hops. Light bodied with moderate carbonation levels. Flavor is lightly malty, a bit crisp/drying. Rather bland and quite typical.

Bottle with a Namibian acquaintance. Looks like your standard macro lager. The aroma’s a bit sweet, but there’s really nothing there to speak of. The taste is sweet, but quite watery. Very neutral. Over-carbonated. Obviously this beer’s not very good, but it’s so neutral in flavor that I’d certainly pick it over Corona or Stella if I had to choose. Of course maybe just saving the calories would be the best option.

Mycket ljus. Tunnt vitt skum. Grästoner i doften. Mycket tunn men utan felsmaker.

tkrjukoff (2241) - SWEDEN - NOV 25, 2011
Bottle 33 cl @ Pitcher & Piano. Pours clear golden with a shortlived white head. Aroma is grainy, fruity, bready and hay. Flavor is a bit malty, sweetish, fruity and has a low bitterness. Finishes shortlived bitter.

maneliquor (1005) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - NOV 15, 2011
Bottle from Mane Liquor. There’s no doubt this is a boring beer, as most lager’s can be, but I enjoy this. Good on a hut summer day. Clean and crisp. Nice quaffer
