Pint on tap at Las Vegas Airport. It's just a big glass of flat brown water with no head. Looks horrible, cost USD12. Hooray! Smells slightly like beer, tastes watery and zingy. I assume you're meant to drink this out of a bottle. Horrible excuse for a beer.

Clear golden colour, minimal white head; aroma and taste of grainy, hay, some grassy, bread crusty and metallic notes; refreshing in 30 degrees, full aunshine in Miami Beach

Found in Bonnie’s garage fridge. Abandoned by a character called Kevin. Gold with a thin, foamy head. Very little aroma, a mix of caramel and metals. Taste is bitter on a light body and watery texture. The not unpleasant touch of lingering caramel is the highlight. Barely tolerable.

Flaske fra Getrankefeinkost, Magdeburg. Klar gylden med et flot skum. Dufter af gær og brød. Smager meget sødt.

12oz can found in my yard. Quite a crappy aroma, factory adjunct crap. I remember this having a little more malt character, less of a corn feel. Definitely going the cheaper and cheaper factory route, this is rather disappointing. Not that good for any style.

From can. Quite watery grainy and citrussy. Mild taste as well. Light bodied, watery texture, lively carbonated, dry watery finish. Another one.

33cl bottle. Pours loaded gold, transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is bready, cereal, honey. Body is average, with moderate carbonation. Taste is medium sweet. Final is a little weak.

Light gold body with white head. Thin white head. Light lagery aroma, no skunkiness. Pleasant malt taste with a light clean finish. This was a draught version, not a can or bottle.

On tap at The Tap (Yakima), pours a clear blonde with a medium white head. Aroma is quite vegetal, with herbal notes and skunky vegetables. Flavour is quite vegetal, with straw and herbaceous vegetal character. Pretty rank. Could be worse, but not a whole lot worse.
