Re-rate 11/2/13: Bottle sample at a tasting at Yoav’s place. Thanks Tom L. Yellow to pale golden. Aroma has some graininess, skunky hops and a bit of cardboard hints. Slightly grainy flavor, slightly sweetish, with light skunk. Really watery. Pretty clean. 3/2/4/1/8=1.8
Can sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks troubles. Clear pale golden. Aroma of cooked corn and graininess. Grainy flavor with light sweetness and a slightly drier finish. Light-bodied. 3/2/3/2/6=1.6

Nice! Smooth, mellow, with a pleasant flavor. Appearance is great with thick, fluffy head. Bready aroma and light malty flavor, with a slight citrus tang. Very interesting...

Canette 500ml. De couleur jaune et claire. Nez de grains de malt pâle sucrés, de maïs sucré, avec quelques notes de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé) aisni que des traces fruitées (agrumes). Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture aqueuse. Goût de grains de malt pâle sucrés légèrement croustillant lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi rapidement d’un léger goût sucré de maïs puis finalement une très légère amertume de houblon herbeux aux notes florales sèches viennent clore la gorgée. Post-goût court et aux notes sèches, très légèrement amer de houblon herbeux.

From a 330ml bottle on 30/12/2012. Pours a clear light yellow with a small head. Has a typical pale lager aroma of stale grain. The flavour features a little sweet malt and a small dose of hops. An entirely dull, run of the mill macro pale.

330ml bottle. Clear golden colour with average, firm, frothy, white head. Strawy aroma with a touch of corn. Taste is unpleasantly metallic, strawy, burnt, bitter, soapy; bitter, soapy finish. One of the worriest beers ever concerning taste.

Drank at a party where there were SA saying how it was the best lager in the world couldn’t disagree based upon the recent cricket results. But the beer is better than fosters.
