A: Pours a pale golden color with a decent head that fades to bits of lacing.

S: Mild aroma of malt, some fruit and grain.

T: Taste of mild malt sweetness, trace of fruit and grain. Mild bitterness and a fairly clean finish.

F: Light body, smooth and a bit refreshing.

O: Not a bad beer for what it is, another Euro Lager in an ocean of lager beers.

 

 

 

Bottle: standard 330mL green bottle with a better-than-average macro label.

Appearance: just about right for a pilsener - light-to-mid golden amber with a steady stream of carbonation and a limited head that settles to a film.

Aroma: a strong smell of bitter grains, with little in the way of hops to counter it.

Taste: a pleasant surprise after the aroma. The bitterness has been replaced by a slightly sweet grain and some floral and grass hops. Quite nice, and certainly refreshing.

Aftertaste: both the floral hops and sweet grains linger quite nicely. This is a good sessional, but could also be had quietly over a good conversation.

Mouth feel: light-to-medium in body with perfect carbonation for the style. Easy drinking - certainly goes down well with food or by itself.

Overall: not a bad beer at all. If you compare it to the standard XXXX, VB and New - which you can since they are all roughly the same price - I think this one takes the cake. Not the greatest beer in the world, but it never sets out to be. A good all-rounder.

 

 

 

 

Well, this one tasted more like a Euro Pale than an American Adjunct. Poured a clear straw colour with an inch of lathery head into a pils glass. As expected, the head did not last more than 30 seconds. Smell was of pale malt, leafy, grassy with a wee bit note of hops. Tasted fairly malty upfront, adjunctless (no graininess in taste) with a metallic finish leading to bitterness (not from hops though). The finish is clean and crisp, making it ideal for hot and sunny days. Other than that, nothing much to write home about.

Pale yellow with a medium head, standard standard lager appearance. Fairly strong malty smell on opening bottle, slightly metallic as time goes on but no skunkiness. Pleasant smell for a cheap lager, actually.

Flavor is medium bodied, fairly easy to drink, standard lager fare all around. A bit malty, easier to drink than not.

Well what can i say but this is definately not my most favourite of the hahn beers but definately not the worst it pours a standard australian golden lager colour and on the nose i can smell quite wet,grassy,hoppy characteristics quite similar to a freshly cut lawn,this beer is well carbonated as you would expect and on tasting this beer i definatley am glad i didnt pay any money for it,quite a watery tasting beer with a little malt and hop finish and has a slightly horrilbe aftertaste that doesnt make you reach for more.
