This is the beer you stole from your dad's fridge. You probably drank it warm... in the backyard... behind the shed or under the stairs. Ok, I did. Show Less

On tap at Swans, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out straw, a little bit of bubblegum and some herbal notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with grassy herbal notes, a touch of bubblegum, and straw. Clean and fresh. Solid.

Pale grains. Clear gold with a decent white head. Soft bitter grains and a light finish.

The aroma is absolutely nothing. Good job! Has a soft yellowy-gold body with no head. Dad would be proud. Flavour is floral hops like the potpourri your mom put in the basement (aka Dad's man cave) and it all just creates this ugly mess that's like the place has never been properly approached by one of your family's numerous Phillipino cleaners. Mouthfeel is full enough with some crispness. This is a bad lager, but that's what they set out to do, so.... it's good? Or just, why bother in the first place?
