The 1079 Project
Banks's Park Brewery

I usually drink Guinness so i like to taste great beer, i go out my way to now buy the 1079 from Aldi.
Great wee beer,. My sit at home fave 5*

For a 'budget beer' from Aldi, this exceeds most cheap beer in taste. It has some bitterness but not too much, but definitely drinkable, especially when one considers European beers, sold in Britain, such as Carlsberg, Amstel and Löwenbrau, which have their alcohol content (and this their flavour) de-rated for the 'UK market', are priced higher.
Why should anyone in their right mind pay for Carling or those other tasteless beers when you can have this?

Bland and generic but cheap as chips. Supposed to be dry hopped....I really can't tell to be honest. Bit refreshing but unexciting. Feels like it is lacking life: bit stale.

Good no nonsense hopped lager from Aldi!!!

 

This is a fantastic highly drinkable pils. Similar to the darker styles available from obscure breweries if you ever venture away from the city’s of Czech Republic. It’s not the lighter ‘Peezwazer’ style that many become aquainted with in the 70’s and 80’s. This is the type of can to give to your snobby know it all craft brew friend telling them it cost £2.50 a can, who will love it until you tell them it’s made by Marstons for Aldi stores at £2.30 for four cans! I’ve noted some saying they can’t taste much hops. If you can’t taste hops in this beer then I would seriously consider getting your tongue checked by a specialist.

Canned
pours a crystal clear golden body with quickly disappearing white head
aroma is pure sugared cereal, it my be dry hoopped but what amount of hops to what amount of beer
tastes like battery acid lemonade
