Reviewed from notes taken in Tallinn, Estonia in Summer 2014:

Brown glass bottle served into a conical pint glass.

No show forms as it's poured.

HEAD: 30 second retention. White colour.

BODY: Clear pale yellow-copper. Average vibrance. Clean, with no visible yeast/lees or hop sediment.

Appears adequately carbonated. Not a unique or special appearance for the style, but passable.

AROMA: Generic helles malt and adjunct. Pleasant enough. Mild in terms of strength.

TASTE: Helles malt, witbier-esque flaked wheat, clean 2-row barley. Light floral hop aromatics. Rice adjunct. Crisp pilsner malts.

Average depth, duration, and intensity of flavour. Fairly simple, but I do like it for the rice lager it's trying to be.

TEXTURE: Smooth, wet, crisp, slightly overcarbonated. Not oily, gushed, hot, astringent, boozy, harsh, or scratchy.

Light-bodied, suiting the taste okay.

OVERALL: Decent and drinkable. I wouldn't get it again, but it's passable for a rice lager.
