Came in a green plastic 2.5L bottle from a Billa supermarket in Sofia, Bulgaria. Brief notes below:
A: Pours a ~2cm white cap of average consistency which recedes within ~4 minutes. Body is a predictable clear clean copper of average vibrance.
Sm: Slightly buttery - diacetyl, perhaps. Pale malts. Muted floral and grassy hop notes. Aromatic intensity is average.
T: Matches the aroma. Not imbalanced per se, but unbalanced. The buttery diacetyl is bothersome, but doesn't ruin it. Shallow and simple.
Mf: Buttery. Smooth and wet yet unrefreshing. Overcarbonated. Medium bodied (where it should be light bodied). Could be cleaner and crisper.
O: A pretty run of the mill supermarket pale lager, but not awful stuff and very reasonably priced (not that that affects my rating). As of January 2016, this cost about $1.10 USD for 2.5 litres. Would make a decent table beer, but it's not worth seeking out.
Low D+ (2.28) / NOT RECOMMENDED
