450ml Aluminium Bottle: slightly out of date when opened at home on 16 Mar 2013. Poured into two Veltin Pilsner stemmed tulips.

Looked fine: your usual bright, clean and clear golden lager look. The thin white head didn't hang around, again typical of the style.

Almost odourless: wet cardboard with dishwater smells if you want to be nasty.

The mouthfeel is dry and crisp but there is very little actual taste: grainy flavour if pushed for a defining feature of the taste, otherwise as tasteless as it is odourless.

Refreshing I suppose it is: a good beer it isn't. My scores are being kind.

2.8/5  rDev +16.2%
look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 2 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5

The colour is yellow (5 EBC), the three finger head is white and compact. It sinks slowly leaving some lacing.

The smell is sweet with quite a lot of cereals. Some sharp alcohol, hints of honey, paper and anonymous bitterness.

The taste got unexpected notes of paper, chalk and dust. Otherwise, there are semi-sweet malts, and very mild clean bitter flavours. Medium body. The aftertaste is dusty with some frowsy notes in the background and a bit more bitterness.

The carbonation is medium strong, the small bubbles fresh. The liquid is semi-smooth.

An OK Euro-lager with some disturbing off-flavours.
