UPDATED: AUG 12, 2022 1 liter glass bottle (4,5%, made in Spain). Faint aroma of malt and corn. The taste isn't great. Initially there's a sharp, slightly sour and 'metallic' malt flavor, which quickly evaporates into nothing. Watery finish with almost no bitterness. It's drinkable, but that's it.

UPDATED: APR 5, 2022 Una bionda abbastanza anonima, che tuttavia ha un buon equilibrio e non merita il mio sdegno. Frizzantina senza eccessi, grado alcoolico appena percepibile, il resto é una birra da pasto qualunque, a metà tra Peroni e Tsingtao. Non malaccio dài.

UPDATED: JAN 3, 2021 Bright, bubblty, refreshing on a warm summer's day. It's light and easy drinking - great holiday lager.
2.3
UPDATED: FEB 11, 2020 Like a Spanish Bud Light. Something to drink when you’re really thirsty and water won’t cut it. But not to enjoy as a sipping quality brew at all.

UPDATED: OCT 14, 2019 This is my go to beer. Tastier than The bland Budweiser or Coors I used to drink but just as refreshing but not as powerful as some IPAs.
