Pours well with big foamy foam and sodapop light gold body. Sweet corn and slight hops on the nose, vague cardboard and tin. Taste is smooth sweet cardboard, vague hops, soft cloying finish. Surprisingly okay for what it is.

341 ml bottle. A lightly malt flavoured, heavily carbonated drink. Fluffy. No need to try again.

Bottled in Kimberley, BC. Clear pale yellow, no head. Light citrus aroma. Dryish and clean - almost crisp. Sligh dusty citrus flavour, fairly light body. Low bitterness. The palest amber ale in existance?

A bit simplistic, but the lightly chewy cara-malt palate and earthy finish are decent for a macro-ale. That said, a real micro, or even their Black Lager, would treat you better.
