2.48/5  rDev -16.8%
look: 3 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 2
Appearance: clear orange in color with a 1/4" head that disappears immediately. No lacing develops.

Smell: malts and grains are soft and barely detectable by the nose.

Taste: grainy malt, corn, grass, green grapes, and a hint of bitterness make up an off balanced beer.

Mouthfeel: smoth and lightly dry throughout. Medium bodied. Clean aftertaste.

Drinkability: a poor polish beer here. I had a tough time finishing the glass. Avoid this one.

Re-reviewing, because I'm bored.

Carlsberg owned. Usually not a great sign. Bottle design isn't particularly inviting, and no idea who the guy is or why he is wearing such a silly hat. Sugar listed on the ingredients which is quite rare. Great to see it is 5.8% and not 5%, probably the added sugar gives it an alcohol boost.

Pretty ok head, quite dark colour for a pilsner. Not many bubbles coming through from underneath, and quite large bubbles in the head. The head unfortunately dies down quite fast.

Sweet malt dominates the aroma, with some faint apricotty hoppy undertones.

Mouth feel is rather watery and the effervescent aftertaste on the tongue lacks flavour, and kind of tingles. And it's kind of syrupy, I guess that's from the sugar that hasn't fermented.

Flavour is quite sweet, and it kind of lacks hops...reminds me of a German Helles a bit. There is nothing wrong with it, the balance of sweetness and bitterness is ok..it just lacks mouth feel and excitement. It is pretty good value though (so gets some extra overall points) it's one of the worst Polish beers for me.

500 ml bottle, as Harnas Jasne Pelne, in Poland. ABV is 6%. Deep golden colour, moderate head. Fruity hops aroma. Moderately malty flavour, nothing spectacular.

Harnas has a very thick, spongy, off-white head, with a mostly clear, golden appearance and heavy lacing. The aroma is of semi-sweet grains and a touch of grass. It has a similar flavor. Harnas has a medium body and a moderately-dry finish.

Dorada, con un cordón de espuma de baja retención. De cuerpo ligero y baja carbonatación. Aroma ligeramente herbáceo. En boca es una cerveza con un leve amargor.

Poured from a 16.9 oz. can. Has a light golden color with a 1 inch head. Smell is mild, some malts. Taste is of malts, grains, slightly sweet, highly refreshing. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer that I would probably enjoy more during the summer.

I believe this is the same beer as Harnas jasne pelne.

From a can this pours a crystalline gold with an impressive head. The aroma is slightly grassy, somewhat sweetish. There’s a flat, almost dull grassy hop character to the taste, but not entirely unwelcome. All around decent.

Pours clear, gold in color with one inch head. Taste is pilsner malt, grass, and grain. Medium bodied and carbonation sweet. Makes for an above average Polish lager.

Dark gold color, clear. Foam very high and stable, decently adorned with glass.
The aroma of malt and slightly metallic, surprisingly not smelly.
The taste is the same malty and slightly metallic, slightly sweet and a little sour.
Gentian low saturation high.
