msante79 (1726) - Mount Prospect, Illinois, USA - JUN 24, 2008
12 oz bottle that came in "Beers of the World" multi-pack. Pours clear golden with fluffy white head. Aroma is malt, hops and corn. Flavor is bland with hops, malt, corn and a little honey. Best part of this beer is the drinkability. Smoth drink that is just touch better than Miller Lite.

Bov (7098) - Bienne, SWITZERLAND - NOV 29, 2006
courtesy of MadDan - very clear pale golden colour, stable white foam; poor aroma with a touch of corn; soft and neutral palate, medium-bodied at best, slightly sweet and no bitterness detected; short tasteless finish - close to water

Considerably more bitter than Windhoek Lager. Decent. I was surprised, pleasantly.

TBone (9096) - Pori, FINLAND - OCT 3, 2005
Bottled, alc. 5.0% (BB 04/2006)
Yellow color, small white head, some lace. Harsh malty nose. Malty, medium-bodied, a bit harsh. Not any big faults but totally boring.

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - OCT 3, 2005
Bottled. Pale yellow colour, big creamy head. Vegetably malty aroma with hints of grass. Quite watery, but weak malt and hops. Not that exciting.

sayravai (4526) - Helsinki, FINLAND - OCT 2, 2005
(Bottled@Stockholm Beer Festival 2005) Very pale yellow-golden color with a small head. Corny-malty, slightly acidic aroma. Corny and acidic flavor with very little malt and hops. A pale lager with no distinctive characteristics.
