3.0 Can. Clear gold. White frothy head. Aroma: grainy, spicy. Light-bodied. Taste: bittersweet. Equal malts & hops. Spicy. A pilsner of average quality.

1.2 Can from Maxima. Canned 4 months ago. Very old school aroma and flavour, so bad, reminds me of highschool and Levikas. Disturbing medicinal hop extract and alcohol are showing the most in this. Yyyyeeeeaaaa... I really don't mind cheap pilsners but this sucks, this really sucks.

2.9 Clear light golden colour with thick white head , aroma is malty , grass, slight touch of honey , taste is malty , medium bitterness, light sweetness, kinda odd aftertaste, thin mouthfeel, average carbonation.

2.5 Lata 0,33l Dorada clara con espuma blanca, fina, alta,resistente.Aroma citrico ligero,malta.Sabor malta,citrico, suave dulzor y creciente amargor.

1.3 Straw & hint of grass in the aroma. Golden color. Not very interesting as a taste.

2.8 Canned. Slightly unclear golden color with small white head. Grassy, light bitter. One solid and easy going pilsener.

2.2 500 ml can. Clear gold color with minimal white head. Smells old dust barley. Taste are soft water with some light bitter and that's it. Almost no aftertaste some strange bitter and metal. I hope some day rerate it...

2.7 0.5l can. Clear golden color with some dusty particles floating. Reasonable white head. Aroma of grass, yeast, cardboard and biscuit. Taste is grassy bitter, slightly sweet and with metallic notes. It tasted significantly worse the warmer it got.

3.6 Schön malzig, sonst nichts besonderes. Nicht schlecht.

2.2 Can from Žabac. Golden body, white head. Okay aroma really, flowery, slightly malty, nothing too special, nothing too bad. The taste is, however, an immediate letdown, sweet, dusty, light cardboard, ending quite lean. Just a classic sub-par cheap German lager.

2.4 Akzeptabel. Wässrig, mit einem süßlich malzigen, getreidigen Geschmack. Nicht wertig aber dennoch relativ stimmig.

2.5 Can - Pours a clear yellow with typical head and sweet hay aroma with a little citrus. Taste has corn or adjuncts with some lemon. OK lager.

1.9 Can. Clear straw. Corn, wort, a little bit of wet bread in the nose, bitter, then sweet, slightly corny and also alcoholic in the mouth. light body, bitter alcoholic finish and lively carbonation.

2.0 330 ml can. Bought in a licor store in santiago. Widely available here for some time. Yeasty grass smell. Extremely light color, low foam. Kind of tasteless. Leaves something metalic in the back. Bad.

2.9 Draft at Rustico. Poured a clear golden yellow color with a small white head. Aroma was light citrus, sweet malts. Light woody malt notes. Vanilla. Interesting.

3.0 Dorada clara, dos dedos de espuma blanca. Aroma escaso, cereal. En boca es punzante de gas, seca y de amargor creciente. Base malteada y bastante equilibrada. Ligeramente metálica. Se bebe bien y refresca.

3.1 500ml Can: Pours a clear pale straw with large rocky white head that persists. Aroma of hay, bread and slight honey. Slight alcohol on taste with a nice honey notes. Bready with a nice crisp finish. Medium to light bodied, medium carbonation and medium bitterness which compliments the malt profile. Overall very nice beer.

2.5 From Hipercor. In Teku glass. Playing Mahluk. Nice aspect. However, the end of the sip is spoiled by an excessive grassy bitterness with metallic notes

2.6 500ml can, 5% ABV. Rapa Nui. Pours a clear yellow with a big white head that diminishes not too fast and leaves a thin film. Aroma is quite malty for a Pilsener, dough, white bread, cereals, even some sugary traces dominate throughout. Small herbal touches, but no real intense hop presence. Taste is reasonably bitter although packing metallic bitterness instead of refined hop bitterness. Cereally and bready malts are a strong backbone but tainted by the metallic hints. Light to medium body. I don’t know. There is no real reason to go searching for this instead of an easy to find mainstream industrial lager like Stella Artois, Becks or even Heineken.

3.0 Mild grassy aroma, nothing extraordinary. Pours clear gold from can, taste is on the sweeter side but still balanced. Nothing special, but far from bad either. Very easy to drink.

2.0 50cl can from Maxima, Tallinn. Pours clear pale golden with a fast dissipating, white head. Mild grainy aroma with ripe fruits, some honey and just a hint of hops. Medium to moderate sweet with low flavour intensity and bitterness. Rather bland and boring industrial pale lager.

2.9 nice taste but it has really poor aroma no notes at all medium body, thin feel, average carbonation, bitter finish

3.2 Aroma: Medium-light grainy, crackers, Light bready, spicy, floral hops. Appearance: Brilliant, light gold body. Large, white head. rocky, good retention. Lacing. Flavour: Medium cracker, Light bitterness, floral hops, balancing the malt, leaving the beer crisp. Dry finish with lingering floral hops. Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Overall: Crisp, refreshing, easy drinking, but can do with more bitterness if it wants to call itself a pilsner. 500 ml can, poured. Thanks Rob! 5D. German Pils

2.5 Golden color woth a white and quickly diminishing white head. Aroma and flavor is light malty with hay and raw cereal notes. Watery final with a weak bitterness.

1.9 Canned - Clear yellow colour, small, fast fading white head. weak malt aromas, some crushed cereals, hay, low noble hops. Taste is malty with a bit cardboard tone, low and featureless hop bitterness. Average european lager.

1.9 Meh. Water and hop extract, basically. Some malt but no character to it whatsoever. Tastes as cheap as it is

2.7 Can 0.5l, 5% abv. Clear light yellowish with small white head. Floral aroma with some graininess and hint of grapes. Bittersweet flavor, floral, light hoppy bitterness, a bit grassy. Light-bodied.
