La mia preferita per colore, pastosità, tasso alcoolico...
Blik gedeeld met Tomhendriksen en Benzai. Goudgeel bier met grof schuim dat snel weg trekt. Aroma is moutig, smaak is eveneens moutig en iets houtig. Geen nasmaak.
Blik gedeelt door Inoven geprobeerd met Benzai. Het is een goudgeel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een moutige wat zoete geur. De smaak is moutig, zoet en wat alcohol achtig.
Classica birra da poter bere dopo una giornata pesante di lavoro. Non la valuto per la qualità, troppo commerciale e nulla di speciale.
The beer now has 9% alcohol (bottle 0,33cl). It's a bit sweet and you can sense the alcohol.
I frikkettoni (hipster et similia) oggi bevono acqua e sapone (v. IPA). Andatevene affanculo.
Farbe ist Bernstein. Duft nach Alkohol, reifem Kernobst, Honig. Süßlich-malziger Antrunk, erinnert etwas an günstigen Met.
L’importante è la destinazione😬
When drunk cold, hints of blood and broken dreams. It's not the journey it's the destination. A Glasgow kiss to your liver, that's what is absolutely needed at times.
An english, amber, clear Imperial Pilsner with white head. Aroma is malt, bread, tea. Taste is bitter sweet. Vineous.
It pours golden with an off white head. It is rich in pale malt like a mai bock not a Pilsner. Alcohol is noticeable and slightly hot. There are some spicy and grassy elements
Tennent's Super is nothing more than a high alcohol version of a very standard lager. It doesn't claim to be anything else. I love it for what it is, however. It's one of my "go-to" drinks on a weekend, as I personally love a couple of cans of high strength lager while relaxing at home. Yes, these high strength lagers do indeed have a bad reputation in the UK, but when enjoyed in moderation, these strong lagers are a brilliant way to end a busy week.
Notes: Some malt and an industrial alcohol aroma
Taste: Full-bodied mouth feel with an initially grainy, then alcoholic / grainy aftertaste.
Conclusion: As mentioned earlier in this review, this beer doesn't pretend to be something that it isn't. And I respect that. If you have a taste for "super strong" lagers, give Tennent's Super a try.
NB: From research, I see that this beer is quite a thing over in Italy!
(bottle 0,355l -- 9 % alc.) Overall: Meh. Just sweet and a bit alcoholic.
Aroma: Light grainy, light alcohol, weak.
Appearance: Clear golden. Minimal, white head.
Taste: Medium sweet, malty, light alcohol.
Palate: Medium body. Light warm finish.
This is the dog's bollox of beers! Anyone who doesnt like it is a total fud!
Birra per ubriaconi che schifano il sapore dell'alcol, e comprano questa birra da quattro soldi che non sa di nulla
non lo so mi fa schifo
33cl bottle. Pours clear dark copper. Aroma of grain, touch of citrus. Flavor of grain, citrus, alcohol, sugar syrup. Not bad, but not that great.
440ml can. Gold colour with white head. Stale grain, light metallic, weird light sweetness, light bready, light cardboard, light booze - less than expected. Weirdly thin for abv. Not good but definitely not as bad as expected considering the brewer and the rating here
Zapach: chmiel, kwaskowy, biszkopt, karmel
Kolor: bursztynowy
Smak: chmiel, kwaskowy, biszkopt, karmel
Wysycenie: średnie
Słaby, choć nie odrzucający silny lager. W zapachu i smaku to samo, tj. chmiel, kwaskowość, biszkopt i karmel. Zapach i smak w miarę intensywne, choć nie dają zbyt dużej przyjemności. Nie ma nieprzyjemnych aromatów "gorzelni", ale też ciężko powiedzieć coś dobrego, poza tym, że nie przytłacza. Pijalność średnia w kierunku niskiej. Ogółem rzecz biorąc, dość słaby, choć smakujący trochę lepiej od typowych silnych koncerniaków silny lager.
I was first introduced to tennets on my summer study abroad in Italy. As an American college student I appreciate a cheap beer that will put me on the floor. Tennents is that beer. I semi-remember many nights where my roommates and I would walk to the store and pick up 5 tennets each, a quantity sufficient for our needs. Tennets was the father figure I needed when I had none. Thank you tennets I love you
The worst beer I have ever tasted. Not a flavor and In mouth the "caramel taste" was awful. Positive notes( if you can say that) good carbonation and the alcohol volume not strong and invasive as you can expect from a 9% rubbish beer.
Bottle from an Italian street vendor. Pours clear gold with a medium, frothy white head, short retention. Moderate rich sweet Pils malt, light alcohol notes, faint earthy hops, light hop bitterness and a medium sweet finish. Full body and medium carbonation.
fra le peggiori birre bevute, si sente solo l'amaro e l'alcol. Pure fra le industriali spicca in negativo. Bocciatissima.
33cl bottle from local Pizzeria in Eur The strong lager was available on a trip to Rome. The high alcohol lager was drinkable but not exceptional. The lager poured a clear Amber color. This was a good start. The aroma was sweet with alcohol and malts. The medium body lager has soft carbonation. The high ABV for the lager dominates the experience. Hopefully it will put me to sleep.
Moderate euro-lager aromas. Gold and clear in color with light head. Taste is malty, something off-putting going on
Fles 33cl in La Spezia. Maltig, alcohol, zwaar bier zoet. (7-2017).--------.
Potete dire quello che volete su questa birra, ma rimane la migliore in assoluto se la vostra intenzione è quella di mangiare come animali o devastarvi. Il fatto è che - e non temo smentite - il gusto (tipico della Super) rimane dall'inizio alla fine del pasto o della serata. E' vero, non è raffinata come altre ma mi piace il tono forte, la mancanza di un retrogusto d'alcool tipico delle doppio-triplo malto e, sopratutto, che è poco vivace e va giù come acqua.
Per me una delle migliori in assoluto.
Lager fuerte. Amarillo claro. Poca espuma. Poco aroma. Gusto algo dulce y ligero amargo. Retrogusto algo amargo y regrescsnte. Muy alcolica para ser una lager. Se bebe bien aunque no se nota mucho el alcohol seria mejor con menos graduacion para mi gusto.
Semplicemente una birra che fa il suo dovere se pensiamo solo ed esclusivamente all’alcolismo. Da prendere in serate dove non si bada alla degustazione ma alla sostanza.
Draught @ Barcollando, Milano (April 21, 2018). Amber, clar no head. Taste has alcohol - and that's all about it. This is for the professional drunkards.
