Hansa

I was drawn to this $4 half litre bottle of imported German beer like a sailor drawn to the siren song of a mermaid...or something.

I walked home thinking it was a lucky find...

Then I drank it.

Yeah.

Mmm.

It has this really weird taste at the beginning that is very off putting, I can't even describe it. At first I was going
to give this like a 2...

however...

Things took a turn once I drank it with food. That strange opening flavour suddenly disappears. With food it's a
different beast. It's pretty subtle, but tastes a lot cleaner. It's not a huge improvement, let's not get
carried away, but it shifts from off putting to drinkable. I wasn't interested in finishing it at first, but the bottle is now empty.
