50cl bottle at the Novotel, Queenstown. A hazy straw coloured pour with a scummy looking head; citrus & passionfruit aroma; fruity taste to start but becoming thin and watery. A straightforward lager, hardly a pilsner.

330ml bottle into pint glass. Hazy amber beer with thin fluffy white head. Medium carbonation. Surprising aroma of soft doughy malt. Good body, bitter taste with grainy notes. Sharply bitter finish is great. Late late fruity dryness encourages more quaffing. Great Pils.

(On tap) Clear straw with good white head. Nice aroma with lots of citrus and hints of pine. Light body, good carbonation. Foretatse is citrus with hints of biscuity malt. A nice bitterness develops and stays around for a long finish. A fine pilsner.

Bottled. A golden beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and lemons, leading to a bitter finish.

Bottle brought back by Wombata. Deep, rich gold with a nice, thick head. Big floral hop nos, grass. Fruity flavor with white Muscat grape, dirt, hoppy finish, light cabbage, slightly metallic. Big body for a light beer. Interesting as hell. Very unusual hops.
