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.
Low C (2.80) / AVERAGE
