Amstel Lite packaging must be changed: ASA

Me neither... unless I have the wrong cans.
But they all seem to have pretty much that same pattern.

I get where they're coming from with the complaint. I have on more than one occasion mistaken the Amstel for Castle light. Last week I was on my way to the till already when I realised that it was actually Amstel. At first glance I thought it was just special edition bottles of Castle Lite.

It seems a little shady of Amstel, though. I think the resemblance has more to do with the word "lite" than just the color and pattern, though. Castle Lite has grown in popularity very quickly. No wonder Amstel is trying to ride on its coattails.

Good. I accidentally bought castle lite once instead of Amstel Lite. It's the plastic packaging that's very similar not the tins or bottles

Now Pilsner is catpiss. You might as well through a cap of any other beer in a glass of water and it will taste the same.

Try it, it's not a Hansa

That is my definitive fall back position when I can't get P Urchell.
