(can) Clear golden colour with a mid-sized foamy white head, leaving some lace. Dusty sweet malty and corny nose with sourdough and a whiff of hops. Light bitter flavour, light to medium body, smooth carbonated mouthfeel. Slightly sweet grainy taste, mild bitter finish. Not that bad as expected, even drinkable.

Ein recht stabiles Bier, obwohl die angekündigte "Leichte Bitterkeit" ausbleibt. Der Anfang ist recht hopfig, ein wenig malzig. Recht mild isses und natürlich süffig. Zum Ende hin ein wenig Herb, dieses Aroma schächt doch direkt wieder stark ab, um dann, zusammen mit einem etwas metallernen Geschmack noch eine Zeit lang anzuhalten. Fazit: Da dies mein erstes südafrikanisches Bier ist, habe ich keine großen Verlgeichsmöglichkeiten. Ausbaufähig ist dieses Bier auf jeden Fall noch. Test vom 17.11.2005, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 12,7,10,6,13,8 - 8,50

Another country, another non-descript Lager. Pale golden color with tiny bubbles and a thin white head that was gone in the blink of an eye. No lacing apparent. Sweet aroma. Light-bodied with vague sweetcorn and malt flavoring. The finish is short with musty hops. Needless to say I won’t bother getting this again.

Bottled 650ml (bottled 4 Feb 05, brewed by Rochees Breweries, Rajasthan)
Yellow color, small white head. Aroma of old socks, ash, malts and vegetables. Malty, grassy, hints of spinach. Light to medium bodied. Light palate. Boring plain lager.

Can. Light yellow colour with white head. Aroma has a hint of sour rag. Flavour is not too bad, some residual sugar. Low carbonation for a pilsner, which I consider a plus. Aftertaste has a little bitterness.
