This is a quite mediocre German pils, with lots of flat bitterness. Lacks everything that makes a beer interesting. Quite disappointing compared to how outstanding German beer can be…

Average pale lager with slightly metallic aftertaste. Steady foam head. Some strange hops. Crystal clear and crisp in the glas. Medium carbonation and thin, watery mouthfeel.

Pours crystal clear gold colour with a thick white fluffy head. Corny and grainy on the nose. Clean and crisp but plain taste, o thing out of the ordinary. Nicely carbonated

Nov. 2006. 500 ml can, as Holsten Premium Lager. ABV is 5.0%. Golden colour, moderate head. Standard pale lager aroma, grassy notes. Flavour has first some sweetness, then a certain bitterness takes over, metallic notes. Not a great beer by any means, but as international pale lagers go: I’ve had worse.

I had this a long time ago it was ok as I remember bought it again today at the lcbo in Ontario 500ml at 5%.
poured a 1finger head into glass that quickly evaporated leaving almost no lace taste of sweet pale
apple malts with a medium bitterness.
beer looked kinda flat as I was drinking it.
cheers.

De color dorado, con un dedo de espuma aireado de baja retención. De cuerpo ligero y baja carbonatación. Aroma lupulado y herbáceo. Sabor ligeramente dulce.

From the can, it pours a lovely golden color with a modest head that rapidly shrinks to a small size but does continue to replenish. Lacing. In the nose, bready malt with a slight hint of hops. In the mouth, malt with a slight bit of bitter.

Blah
I won't be buying this again and it reiterates why I haven't bought any of this for the past ~20 years!! Desperately needs a malt and hops boost and perhaps better brewing period!! It reminds me a lot of Danish Pilsners.
