Can as shown. Pours a orange gold with thick frothy white head that last awhile. The aroma is wheat and corn malt. Similar flavor to the aroma with a skunky finish. A decent English pale ale from Fosters.

Really not that bad, better than regular Fosters. Nice hint of caramel on the backside.

Pours a dark gold with short lasting foamy head. Decent malty flavor, a little richer than their normal lager. Slight lingering aftertaste stays on the tongue. Very pleased with this brew.

Big damn can. I was desperately looking for a new tick- here I go! Pours a clear amber color with a small white head. A sweet nose of grains and honey. A sweet fairly clean flavor, some light ripeness, caramel, light bitterness. Very smooth. Decent.

Pours deep, clear amber into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to coat surface leaving scant sheet lacing. Sour cookie, tropical fruit and caramel aromas. Crisp and sour with front to back dusty fruits and cereal.

750ml can - Well, this beer is a damn sight better than the regular Fosters lager. That, of course, is saying very little, but I’ll give them that much credit. It’s copper colored and has a light, toasted malt aroma. The flavor is sweet with some roast caramel character. It’s light bodied and quite drinkable. Don’t expect anything great here, but it’s not appalling either.

Tin. Another unmemorable drink from Foster’s. Pale amber with thin head. Aroma is malt and metal. Slight body, a little malt, A little water. A friend who was in the AuSAS told me they insisted on this after a day on the line. I suppose if you’re getting shot at and survive, any beer tastes good. I used to drink Castle.

Haven’t seen this around here for many years. Got this one at Giant Egle Market District in Robinson. From a really big green and gold can. Impressive when compared to those wimpy tall skinny cans we have locally. Somewhat odd metallic processed olfactory. Pour is darker than the regular fosters and it has a big foamy head that goes rocky aftetr a few minutes. Looks pretty clear and good, nice streams of CO2 visibfle inside of 22 oz mug. Interesting slight ale effect on an otherwise lager taste personality. Much less CO2 on the tongue compared to the lager. Its been a while since I had the lager so I can’t really compare it one on one. A little bit of a bitter personality after each slug but not the kind of hops you’d expect with an ale, more strongish lagerlike.

Sampled from a 750 ml can this beer poured a dark caramel-amber color with a huge soapy beige head that lingered and produced good lacing. The aroma was sour and tangy with light notes of lemon and pear. The flavor was tangy with hints of caramel, and lemon. The finish was short, tangy and bitter. Medium body. Exceeded my expectations.
