Visited Amsterdam; made a grocery store run and picked up a dozen random bottles. This was one, and I didn't even check the ABV until halfway through (shortly after thinking, "good lord, this is sweet").

It *is* sweet. Cloyingly sweet. And sharp. And malty, but otherwise bland and only slightly beery. Interesting, I guess, but no one's version of a great beer.

30cl bottle. Clear amber with a very thin white head. Very sweet, with notes of malt sugar, boiled grains, bitter hops and alcohol.

Light orange with a quickly disappearing layer of foam, which makes it look like a root beer within a few seconds. The smell is not that bad: fresh, herby and yeasty. The taste however is: an unholy matrimony of sugar and booze with some malt. No attempt has been made to hide this guy's huge abv. Though it can be pretty refreshing despite its abv, please skip this one. Taste should always be priority number one.

Served in a flute at 6*C
Appearance - Standard lager colouration, heavy CO2 and rocky head that dies off instantly and leaves little lace.

Smell - Oddly chemical with grainy corn possibly.

Taste - Medical alcohol and a very off putting chemical element.

Mouthfeel - Watery and metallic.

Overall - The drink-ability of this one is almost nil. Drain pour unless you are a homeless park drinker!!! (I don't mean that to be as harsh as it sounds I do feel for people in that situation but still.... this is a beer I associate with homeless alcoholics not a good look or a good beer) My advice is avoid this one.
