Can one of Europe's favourite beers go from hero to zero ?

The Greek AF beer trilogy Part 3 - The finale
Let's get into it
First and Last Impressions
The great Amstel in a 500ml bottle, dripping with condensation is freed from the wonky hotel room fridge. Crack open the cap and poured into a wineglass . It has a lovely deep amber colour and a reasonable head that dissipates as quick as cat hearing a hoover!.
It has a very malty smell and is slightly sweet. First taste is heavy with malt with a hint of stale malted milk biscuit sweetness. The mouthfeel is ok, it somehow feels forced like it has some chemical in it to give it that body. It is very much like a Lidl Perlenbacher which is a shame. The finish is as quick as the head, sweet malty with a strange sourness. It's not great.

The Final Score
Erm it's not that good. But let me say if you are Dry Tripping and its is all you can get, it will see you through, Just.
The flavour is too sweet and malty for me with little of anything else. Again it tastes forced.
To sum up, it's a basic AF beer, served very cold it will pass. I would not choose it if there is a choice, but if your not drinking and at a gathering or having a meal it will do.
