Long necked 33cl green bottle: BBD of 6th Aug 2013. Poured into two 'Veltins' stemmed tulip glasses at home on 8th Jan 2013.

Looks your usual/normal lager/pilsner/helles: pale golden, clear and clean, thin white covering for a head.

Grains and yeasts in the nose, along with some hop hints.

The taste is dry, slightly hoppy, slightly cardboardy and slightly boring/bland: not a lot going on really.

Metallic feel towards the end of the tasting: not a beer I'll be having again. The overall body feel and flavours left me cold and needing a proper beer!

0.33 L green bottle. Mindestines haltbar bis: 12.04.12.

It pours a light pale gold with a soapy (really, really soapy) white head that dissipates very quickly with some greasy-looking lacing.

It has a noticeable skunk which is unfortunate because it is a fresh bottle. There is an acute fruitiness though hidden under the skunk.

The taste isn't as skunky. It is pretty standard actually. This is one of the better gluten-free beers out there. It doesn't taste like monkey ass like the others. The mouthfeel is stark and fizzy. It has sort of an odd skunky aftertaste but the nice bit of hops helps it.

Why they have to be idiots and throw it in the green bottle i don't know, but it is a good beer otherwise.
