Everywhere you go in Turkiye, this is the beer you find. It literally is everywhere. Unfortunately there is nothing new to say that already hasn't been said. Clear gold in colour, weak white cap that can't keep itself alive despite excessive carbonation. Nose is cereal grains, weak earthy hops. Flavour is weak giving the impression that this beer may be a lot less than 5% ABV.

Ok cross turkey of the list. According to the can it's the"No.1 Mediterranean Beer in the World". We know that's not true but how do they get away with that advertising.

poured a golden/yellow hay color, nice foamy white head, lots of bubbles rising to the top of the glass. Sticky lacing is readily apparent. The aroma is nothing special, lemons, some grain, some dirty hops. The taste is better than anticipated, nice lemon zest character, some sweet and light grain, some dried hop flavors, but a little watered down. The mouthfeel is bubbly, easy to drink, goes down like water, can guzzle this all day. Sampled this at the World of Beer.

Clear bright yellow with white foam head. Foam is not lasting long. Somewhat high carbonated. Nice bitter taste with some fruits and hazelnut slighlty present. Good aftertaste (Istanbul 201110)

Is this really called beer? Tastes like water with a hint of gun oil. No taste, color, head or much else. Only drank it because I haven't had anything from Turkey yet. Swill. Will never even touch again.

The beer poured a translucent pale gold colour with tons of effervescence and a thin white head which quickly dissipated to a ring. The aroma was corn, grain, and a hint of floral hops. The mouthfeel was weak to medium bodied with a medium carbonation. The flavour was acid, metal, grain, with an offputting bitter finish.

My first brew from Turkey... a nice addition at the LCBO. Pours a light yellow colour with a big soapy white head that disappears quickly, but leaves decent lacing all around. Carbonation is low, with a mix of very tiny and big bubbles. Smells like cheap Euro lagers, and then, turns into the famous chemical aromas and mild alcohol of any bad lagers. Watery mouthfeel with hardly any stickiness. Bland taste of malt sweetness with very little grass in the finish. The light aftertaste has notes of green apples. Other than that, boring.

It pours light golden with thick white head and copious lace. An aroma of sweet malts, light hops, lemon/citrus, and mild spiciness. The mouthfeel is smooth and rich. Flavors of sweet malts, hops, light butterscotch, lemon/citrus, and mild spices. Mmmm .. what a pleasure.

i'm not in a creative enough mood to "enhance" what others have already said about this substandard pee-pee water...suffice to say it is burned into my memory and i will not try it again.

I don't see how it could get any worse... the metallic, grassy aroma is enough to make your head split. While the appearance isn't offensive, it lacks anything - it's just piss-water - no head, no lacing, nothing to make it even remotely average. It tastes like someone left half-a-beer out all night, opened and used it for an ashtray.
