PROPER VERSION. Hazy dull gold, frothy white head. Light pale caramel m sugars and wet green grassy hops - smells sweet. No tropical fruit or cirus, no resins, no harsh compounds of any kind. Similar taste - light simple pale m sugar sweetness, wet green grass, light piney / herbal pungency. Like a middle of the road straightforward 'hoppy lager'. Ok.
BAD VERSION. Cloudy bright yellow, compact white head. Mild mango / tropical fruit - bit very bright nor pregnant - harsh gluey / pithy notes behind. The taste has only some gentle pale fruity notes at the beginning, then it's almost all harsh green walnut skin bitterness bordering solvent / glue rather than proper hops, with only some citrus pulp lurking around. Not as horrible as the super yeasty PET, but still quite poisonous.
