"Best before: 02/2024".
Classic smell of industrial beer on the nose: only malts and cereals. (especially corn).
Very clear straw, very clean... very filtered.
Nice foam hat.
In the mouth effervescent liquid without soul.
Classic industrial product based on maize and with a contribution of hops reduced to a minimum both in terms of taste and above all in terms of bitterness.
Just enough body not to be called "watery" and always active carbonation.
Malted part that prevails but does not give a real defined taste.
Slight hint of corn in the aftertaste and nothing else.
Beer for mass consumption.
Soulless.

I tried this beer a few days ago when I arrived in Rome. Poured from a brown 22.3 oz. bottle. Has a straw color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of malts, a touch skunky. Taste is strong of malts and grains, refreshing. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a pretty good beer.

330ml bottle poured into La Chouffe tulip.

A: Golden, clear, medium sized head which hung around for a bit and left some lacing.

S: Other than a small hint of malt, there wasn't much to report.

T: Malty, slight notes of corn and grain.

M: Crisp texture, moderate carbonation.

O: Typical Southern European pale lager, not bad for what it was but not exciting or memorable.

Cerveza ligera de carbonatación media con una cabeza espumosa de poca retención. Aromas débiles a malta y maíz. En boca es plana sin llegar a destacar ningún ingrediente.

From a large bottle obtained in Cagliari, Sardinia. Clear golden color with white head. Smells of grain. Light feel and moderate carbonation. Light grain and straw flavors with some grassy hops. Had this on a hot day accompanied by pizza and it was pretty enjoyable. But on its own, it's a pretty generic Euro lager.

Looks thin, smells bready, tastes relatively okay but with slightly sharp, almost annoying carbonation and a bit strange, sticky bitter aftertaste. "Anima Sarda" - Sardinian Soul stands on the label, I hope there was one originally before Heineken...
