12oz bottle

A- Dense and quite bright copper colour. Slightly off-white head, pretty healty and persistent, nice amounts of lacing on the sides of the glass

S- Crisp, grainy malts base with some caramel notes showing. Fresh piney/undergrowth notes from the hops, slight citric notes also showing up

T- As the smell suggested the beer has a clean, slightly crispy, grainy foundation; flavour notes are of dark bread and caramel. Good dose of hop flavour and bitterness also showing up, with a herbal/piney feel (more subdued than in the aroma), as well some now more assertive citrus (expecially lemon) notes. Refreshing, slightly bitter finish and aftertaste

M- Interesting mouthfeel for a lager. Not as crisp as you would expect from a good dose carbonation, but something more of raw/grainy kind of crispness, which feels good and natural. Nice

O- A refreshing, easy drinking beer, with still a quite nice amount of complexity and character. Would be a nice regular choice if i could find it for something less than 4€

look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

A- Poured into pint glass, amber color with decent foam that went away quickly
S- Smelled some maltiness, light alcohol
T- Tasted little bit of molasses, some coffee hints
M- The carbonation was done right, went cleanly in my mouth after drinking
O- Good, drinkable beer. It was light on a lot, which isn't a bad thing for lager. There was nothing that really stood out about this to me, but thats not always a bad thing. Its still tasted nicer than some other drinkables in the same categories (Bud, Coors, etc.)
