I do think this is one of the better poor metallic thoroughly average lagers you can buy in almost any crap pub in England. That isn’t saying much though. Drinkable I suppose, don’t want to really slate it but in a decent pub I’d never buy this.

Clear straw colour, rather fizzy with tiny bubbles, no head but faintly attractive. Lively aroma once you get in close enough. Hits the back of your throat with the fizzy harshness of coke. Fresh taste at first but the afterwards it is metallic, probably from being served ice cold. European lagers - standard student fare, this is better then most though.

Nice Yellow pour with a big frothy white head. The aroma is Mild hops and malts. Flavor is true to the aroma. The malts are sweeter then expected. There is small hint of citrus through out. Body is on the thinner side. The finish is clean. Nothing too special, but a pretty solid beer.

Had on a plane on a flight to Europe. Fruity esters, slightly grassy hops, some hay and some sweetness. Pours with a creamy, white head that reverts to a film atop the yellow hued body. Suprisingly nice lacing. Taste is american macro style: not much aftertaste. A little fruit but mainly water. Some hay malts. Fizzy carbonation, but creamy. I have always liked this, brings back good memories.
