From tap at Gilroy’s Brewery in Gauteng, South Africa, 14.03.15. Golden. White head. Fruity aroma and taste. Golden. Low bitterness.

Bottle smuggled back by Tony, thanks for the hookup. Lightly hazy deep golden color with a tiny white bubbled head that dissipates quickly. Great bready sweet pilsner malt aroma with bits of spicy hop butterscotch and pomme fruit. The flavor is heavy with diacytyl and sweet bready malt with just faint hop flavor or bitterness. Medium body, barely any carbonation. Not horrible, but not great either.

Dull gold. Soft body, not much aroma. Mainly malty on the palate but the mouthfeel would benefit from more carbonation. There is, however, a little juiciness in the finish.

(On tap) Clear golden with a small, white head. Fresh and flowery hop aroma. Medium body with rather sweet, clean malts. Rather light with a dry hopping. Very fresh, tasty and quite flavoursome - especially considering the low alcohol. I have a sneaky suspicion that it’s actually stronger though.... 040508

Bottled. Hazy pale golden. Grassy citric nose. Dry and lemony, light bodied. Somewhat bready with soft mouthfeel and medium bitterness. Very flavourful for a lager of this size, but the acidity is not doing it any favours. Will try to get my hands on a another bottle to see if I got an old sample.
