The beer poured a gold translucent colour into official DAB glasswear. The head was white and thin. The aroma was mild and slightly hoppy. The mouthfeel was mild, with medium carbonation. The flavour was sharp, malty with citrusy tones.

Pale yellow to light gold color. White frothy head, which hangs around. Subtle aroma of malt. Nice rounded mouth feel, some hints of honey or even a subtle toasty grain sweetness. Hop flavor comes through as hay-like or slightly grassy. Not overly bitter; the malty finish gives it a sweeter balance than bitter, but not overly so. A good session beer

Pours a fairly big foamy bubbly head and has a clear yellowish/golden appearance. Patchy lacing. Aromas of wheats, grains and malts. Flavours are mainly malty and wheaty with notes of light herbal hops. Has a good balance between hops and malts. Crisp and slightly bitter mouthfeel. Not too bad for a cheap import beer. Could be another party-type beer (cheap and easy to drink, but more flavour than a Coors!) :)

Pale yellow pour with a monster white head which left a thick amount of lace on the glass. Fair amount of carbonation with grassy and citrus taste. Minimal amount of hops but decent enough. No need to try again.

pours a straw yellow body with a touch of haze and a creamy white foam and little lacing. The aroma is clean slightly sweet aroma of green sulfur has a flint note to it and some freshly crushed pils malt comes through in the finish and grows. The taste is fresh pils malt flavor has hints of honey malt and a dry finish with a slightly sweet sulfur green hop flavor that lingers only for a moment. The mouthfeel has a light crisp mouthfeel with a tight fizz. Overall this is very easy to drink by the liter.

Much better than I was expecting stealing some gulps from a buddies can on the deck. REally cold, really crisp, good really enjoyableable tingly carbonation. Bicuit/cookie like but not at all like carmel, like a shortbread. Lemon and other hop characteristics, dry and nice. good beach beer I think...

500 ml can, bought in Spain. ABV is 5%. Crystal clear pale golden colour, big white head. Sweetish and grassy aroma, some floral notes too. The flavour has a very moderate malty sweetness, with a tolerable hoppy bitterness throughout. Not exceptional, but decent.

This beer pours a clear dark gold colour with a huge white head. The head disappears quickly. The aroma consisted of grainy malt, and some citrusy hops. The flavour was similar with the hoppish presence being stronger.

Pours crisp clear golden colour out of the 500mL can. Good size white head which fades slowly with time, pretty good lacing. Fairly sweet smell with hints of citrus and spices. Fairly light mouthfeel with sweetness and a small metallic taste. Overall very good lager, has opened my eyes to a new style of beer; dortmunder.

Crisp, grassy aroma with some mild peppery hops. Clear light gold pour with a lasting 1" thick head and decent lacing. Light and balanced feel that is very crisp, easy and refreshing. Grainy/grassy malt flavor with some mild balancing hops. Moderately bitter with a touch of sweetness. Soft, quenching beer, an easy lager for sure.

Very pale, much stable white foam. Aroma is almost nonexistant, maybe there's a little bit of iron in it, but it's probably from the can. Taste is a little bit corny and sweetish, refreshing. aftertaste is nicely round and hoppy. Tastes good, aroma and appearance is not so good...
