50cl can from a French supermarket - thanks, mom & dad. As 'Brauperle 8.0'. Clear golden with a thin, white head. 'Aroma' of corn syrup, white bread, Haribo candy, plastic, glue, spicy toothpaste. Taste has very sweet malt, corn, corn syrup, pineapple candy with a weird plastic edge and a bitter metallic 'zing' (probably can iron). Long, sweet, cloying finish, sticking to the back of the throat, weirdly astringent too due to that candy & plastic effect, but also due a boozy dash of cheap white rum-like alcohol. Light to medium body, slick-sticky texture, fizzy carbonation. Very hard to drink, which is an achievement in itself. I'm not okay with this!

Can, thanks to Inoven for sharing @ tasting. Clear golden color, average sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, sweetness, not that much alcohol. Well, drinkable. Actually surprisingly drinkable.

Sweetish malty brew. Sticky sweetish, round and fresh. More malty grainy sweetish alcohol than crisp and bitterness. Sweetish-sticky aftertaste with grain. As I expected.

50cl Can, brought from France, thanks Daniël! BB 05-11, so nicely aged... Clear deep golden colour, white head. Aroma of sweet bread, almonds, marzipan, light fruity alcohol. Flavour is sweet, almonds, bread, metal, alcohol, slightly nasty finish. Light to medium-bodied. Not the worst, but not something you’d finish 50cl of.
