2.8 440ml can 5% ABV Crystal clear and very light pale lager with a very thin head. Aroma is of grapefruit, lemons, citrus, hoppy and a tiny bit malty. Taste is watery, slightly bitter, slightly malty. Carbonation is moderate but not too harsh. Mouth feel is slightly fizzy and slightly foamy. Beer leaves a moderately bitter aftertaste that is not too harsh and is bearable. A bit bland, not much flavour but very easily drinkable and very refreshing. Not suitable for craft beer connoisseurs but not too bad for a simple and easily drinkable lager.
3.2 Old Untappd check-in. April 24, 2017. Tasted in Beers of the World class at RIT. Unexciting.
2.8 Bottle at le Hide restaurant, Paris, 16th November 2021. Table was delayed, this was the compensation. The beer is clean and dry, above average macro lager
3.9 Frisch gezapft an der Champs Elyseé. Goldgelb mit viel Kohlensäure Perlen. Mittelgroße Schaumkrone. Duft nach mildem Hopfen. Sehr Kohlenäurehaltig. Malzig, mineralisch und etwas salzig im Abgang
3.1 12 oz bottle. Pours gold with a frothy white head. Lacing. All grass in the nose. Malty with a watery body. Tastes of some bread but very little hops to balance. Fizzy mouthfeel and astringent short finish. Below average lager.
2.1 Fles. Blijkbaar had ik deze nog niet genoteerd. Weinigzeggend lager, slechts fractie beter dan Kronenbourg zelf.
3.0 Old Untappd checkin, May 22, 2017. Rich, golden color with a small head, clear appearance. Light an easy drinking, crisp finish. Not a bad macro lager at all.
2.0 Golden with a quickly flattening foam. Quite crisp and heavy on the carbonation. Bland and quite boring.
2.7 Burk 330 ml från Systembolaget. Guldfärgad med vitt skum som sedan lägger sig på ytan och insidan av glaset. Doft av halm. malt, bröd aprikos. Smak av malt, bröd, apelsin, honung och citrus.
2.2 Poured from 568ml can at 5.0% abv. Aroma: Little to speak of, a bit of citrus, slightly malty, some hops. Has some odd notes of light grains like rice, corn, despite not containing any. Appearance: Pours clear, pale yellow with large foamy white head, moderate long lasting carbonation. Taste: Immediate hit of syrupy sweetness, some grassy hops, a little bit of malt flavour, unpleasant sour notes. Aftertaste is slightly bitter, slightly sour. Mouthfeel: Light body and fizzy carbonation, syrupy and almost a bit greasy from glucose syrup and mix of hop extracts. Overall: Average to below average mass market lager, it's drinkable enough when ice cold and there are definitely worse options at the same price point, but you can also get much better. The level of sweetness is often overpowering, and the other flavours that are present are average. It's not terrible, but I would choose most other 5% abv lagers over it given the choice.
1.6 Clear pale golden, white short lived head. Raw wirth, straw, bland. No malt base, hardly hopped trashy eurolager. With AEÅ Bgt.

1.7 Big bottle at home. Aroma is lemony with a touch of cereals. The head is nice but it leaves little lacing behind. The flavour is definitely grassy (in the hop) with a malty edge and maybe a really light touch of maple / carob syrup. The bitterness is the only thing that lasts and it's not developed in any interesting way. I don't thing this lager has much body either. They've toned it down to 5% and it really leaves the beer with nothing to say for itself. This is not a "premiere" beer any longer (was it ever?) Another beer I thought I liked. Won't be buying again.
2.7 Old rating from 13-12-14 - 250ml bottle, part of 6 pack. Pours golden with white head. Aromas & tastes of grass, grain, hops, hints of honey & sweet malt. Moderate body. Crisp clean moderate bitter finish.
0.9 Rating copied from Untappd. Had at Hilton Garden Inn in Dubai on 9 feb 2016.
3.4 Pours a clear golden yellow with a small white head. Lager like aroma. Medium body. Crisp clean refreshing light lager taste. Flavors fade quickly but still has a light lingering aftertaste. Pretty enjoyable.
3.7 Ekte øl, smaker virkelig Øl. Min go to øl
3.1 Guma balonowa, biszkopty i banany. Goryczka b. niska., barwa złota, klarowne, piana niska. Poprawne jak na Euro Lagera.
3.2 One of the better mass-produced premium lagers on offer in my opinion. Carries a sharper flavour than its competitors and they seem to be one of the few that aren’t gradually reducing their ABV every other month (in ten years I expect all beers will be alcohol free?). Not a word class beer by any stretch, but usually good for the price.
2.6 Beer brewed in Russia. Nice Eurolager really premium. Ideally balanced in aroma and taste. Surprised ..
2.5 Banal

4.2 A beer which is no where near as miserable as my day today. So averaging up into slightly less of a miserable day with this one and hopefully a few more when I get home.
2.9 Voor hier in Frankrijk een behoorlijk goed bier. Gedronken in Vogelbrun, pal op de grens met Duitsland. 4-9-2020
2.0 Bière blonde avec mousse persistante. Nez légèrement herbacée. En bouche, on retrouve une note de houblon, bonne amertume, peu de longueur en bouche, bonne carbonatation, bulles moyennes.
2.1 Seems amazing I’ve never rated this one. Sampled at many occasions, not least at the cricket club. Standard European fighting lager with a slightly chemical note and something that sends you a bit loopy when consumed in large quantities.
2.9 25 cl. bottle @ St. Bonnet, bought @ intermarche St Armand. Clear golden with a white head. Noble hops aroma with some sweet malt. Bittersweet taste with a bitter finish. Quite tasty too be honest.
3.1 can @ shop (budapest) yellow colour, normal body, average carbonated, long white silky head, malty, bittersweet taste, fresh, easy to drink
2.2 660ml bottle @ 5%. Pours a moderate-light gold with an average carbonation. Strong malt aroma with corn. Taste of watery corn sugar syrup. A slight hoppy bitter note at the end. The alcohol and body of the beer holds strong so not an easy to drink lager but would be a good palate cleanser to spicy food.
2.3 Pilsnerfärgad klar med vit skum. Doftar och smakar lite citrus och maltigt. Ok öl i värmen
