330ml bottle. Pale yellow appearance, respectable amount of white froth atop. Decent sweetness for 2.5%, not too light and thin. Decent.

375ml bottle into schooner glass. ABV is 2.7%. Peppery hop nose, clear amber beer with small fluffy white head. Medium carbonation. Mineral water mouthfeel and taste. Finish is a touch sour with some lasting bitterness. Typical light beer wateriness unfortunately.

Draught at O’Keefes, Launceston. Sampled on August 6, 2013.Clear straw yellow color, white head. Malty, thin, a bit grainy taste. Grainy aftertaste. Thin fizzy mouthfeel, low grainy bitterness. Also some wet cardboard aftertaste. Sweet, malty, cardboard scent.hmm, very low scores, but it really wasn’t to my liking.

Straw/gold pour. Small white head that leaves some lacing.Aromas are malt, corn, cardboard, solvent and skunk, but not too offensive.Lemon, slight malt, and astringent bitterness apparent upon tasting.Heavy carbonation, seems to be the trend amongst macro light lagers.
