1.4 Botella de @Supermercado, 11/02/17 Color amarillo, aromes metalicos, lager industrial mala.

3.1 Sample from bottle at holiday villa, Abades, Tenerife. Yellow golden with white head. Sweet malts, light spices, strong barley note. Coriander, hint of mint, light fruity and fresh grain. Moderate sweet and light bitter. About medium body and average carbonation. Belgian inspired.

1.7 Pale straw color, good foam. Sweet aroma: malt, boiled corn, mash, a little spicy. Taste: sweet wort, boiled corn, a little hops.

2.1 Dorado profundo, oro viejo, totalmente transparente y espuma efímera. Muy carbonatada, punzante que enseguida disipa acentuando aún más su sensación aguada. Ligero aroma a malta, algo especiada, notas herbales, metálica. Sabor ligero a grano, moderadamente amarga, lúpulo terroso, un final metálico.

2.1 No es que esté mala pero es ligera como ella sola. Cuando te la acabas te da la sensación de no querer darle otra oportunidad.

2.0 Kullankeltainen kirkas olut kohtalaisella vaahdolla. Tuoksu peruslagerin tuoksu. Maku viljaisen maltainen ja humalaakin löytyy, voinen ja hieman katkeroituva jälkimaku. Ei liian vetinenkään. Kiva yllätys.

2.8 330ml Flasche. Klar und golden mit durchschnittlicher Schaumkrone. Würzig und vollmundig im Antrunk. Gut trinkbar.

2.4 Bottle from shop in Cap Salou, Catalonia, Spain and drunk on my hotel balcony. Golden beer with small head. Aroma is light malt and a little grain. Taste is grain, bitter hops and some pepper. Not bad.

2.4 Botella 33cl Cerveza rubia del montón, una comercial más, gas y mas gas, poco sabor

2.6 0.33 l bottle. Deep golden/orange color with no head. Slight malty aroma. Malty taste with bitterish aftertaste. Ahort finishing, light to medium body, lively carbonation.

1.6 Caña montón de veces en montón de sitios, sobre todo en el Mare (zona auditorio). La última 01..01..2016 la bellota (pz. Gesta). (r160). poco que decir. color dorado y sabores maltosos ásperos con poco amargo. Comercial y nada más.

1.7 Flaske Farven er lys gyldengul med en hvid skumkrone. Aroma og smag er malt, humle, æble og honning. Uinteressant.

1.8 Puszka 0,5l Kolor jasnozłoty, piana niezby mocna, szybko opada. Aromat chmielu , smak cytrusów i traw lekki. Tylko na upały.

2.7 Pale yellow color, short but persistent white head. Grainy nose. Grainy malts, metallic bitterness, dry finish. Light bitter taste. Average carbonation, light body. Macro lager, clean.

1.6 Just found some ancient incomplete notes with numerical values.Another weak spanish beer.

2.8 From Mas. In Legado de Yuste glass. Watchinh Breaking Bad 2x06. Better than the typical spanish macro lager. Flavor more soft.

2.6 @Spain, 2015, fles, label doet vermoeden dat het een exclusief bier is, echter direct na het proeven van de eerste slok denk je al.... áh weer zo’n 13 in een dozijn bier... gouden met witte kraag, aroma van graan, hop. smaken zijn hoppig en mouten, gras, matig zoet, matig bitter, iets waterig, nahhh

1.6 Dorada clara brillante. Nada de espuma. Ligero aroma de malta. En boca, muy vulgar, con sabor a malta, tono poco agradable y poco cuerpo. Muy mediocre.

3.4 I don’t really know why this beer’s got such low ratings. Bearing in mind it is a pale lager and nothing else, it’s a very nice one. Really. Pours golden with green shades, white head. Aroma is porridge, honey, vanilla and iron filings. Fresh, full-bodied, good bitterness. Long finish with some mint hints, like Belgian ales use to have.

2.3 Can from local supermarket on Mallorca. The beer has got a clear golden colour with an airy head and thin body. Taste of hops, bread, citrus and straw. Thin-grainy finsih. Nothing to enjoy, yet refreshing.

2.5 Leicht kraeftig im Antrunk, dazu ein wenig Wuerze und Gewuerze im Aroma. Trinkbar, recht spritzig, etwas Hopfen. Kein Klassiker, aber durchaus trinkbar.

2.0 3.11.2014. Pours golden with white head. Aroma and taste have some grain, metal, and light malts and hops.

2.5 Can from eroski supermarket Mallorca. Golden coloured pour with a lasting thin pure white head. Aroma is sweet caramel apple, cereal. Flavour is sweet caramel, apple, sweet grains. Palate is semi sweet, moderate carbonation. Little bit of lingering metallic.

1.5 Pale yellow color with a frothy white head that last a while and keep a shot lacing. Aroma is corn like non alcohol beers, notes of malt and bread. Flavor is a little bit better than aroma with some malt and grass present and light bitterness. Light body and low carbonation with a dry sweet finish.

2.4 Bright golden color with a nice white head. Strong malty aromas and refreshing bitterness.

1.6 Meh. I do not know why I was not impressed with the "best beer". Felt more watery and stale. Somewhat reminds me of saku kuld

2.3 Drunk from 33cl bottle bought in supermarket in la Palma island. Fairly non-descript lager.

2.7 Pours a clear golden color, topped with an average frothy white head. Malty aroma is mild, there are some grainy notes as well. Taste starts sweet, little bitterness in the finish. Nothing special. Your average lager. Drinkable, that’s it.

2.4 (Bottle) Yellow colour with frothy, white head. Malty nose with notes of white bread, honey, grass and a touch of citrus. Malty taste with bread, honey, cereal, citrus and some grassy hops in the finish. Light body, quite dry. Hardly exciting, but actually quite drinkable with some hops shining through. Decently drinkable.

2.5 "Europe’s best pilsener 2011" hos www.worldbeerawards.com. 0,33 boks fra Supersol, Torremolinos: rund, fruktig, balansert og god - men "Europe’s best"? Mild ettersmak. Lite aroma.
