UNRIVALED TASTE THAT MAKES STEINLAGER NEW ZEALAND'S FINEST.
Steinlager Classic’s international award-winning taste is envied by brewers the world over.
Steinlager Classic has a robust hop nose of fresh-cut green grass and a full flavour delivered by the Green Bullet hop, grown in Nelson at 41 degrees latitude, the perfect hop-growing location.
The body of Steinlager Classic delivers a full flavour that is perfectly balanced with a dry, tangy finish and crisp clean bitterness.

Tap at Moons in Gore. Clear golden with white head. Light dry malts, soft creamy notes, a bit of fruit. Yeah, seems like a standard lager alright, though somewhat decent malts here. Medium sweet and bitter. Over light bodied.

330ml bottle. Pours pale. Apricot, grass, orange, little sweet, little acidity. Clean, nice balance. Not awful.

Purchased locally.
It pours a straw gold with a large head of foam(near room temp) and some lacing. The head retention is better than I thought it would be.
The smell has notes of hop bitterness and corn husks. Not particularly inviting but...
The taste of the corn husk flavour is pretty strong and the hops inject some bitterness but don't add any real flavour. Light bodied and pretty well carbonated, it's not a bad tasting brew at all; it goes down easy enough and there's not much of an aftertaste so it's okay for occasional consumption.

From old tasting notes. Tawny gold color with a bubbly white head. Assertive sweet perfumy malt aroma. Tangy sweet grapefruit malt flavor upfront. Lots of grassy hops in middle. Interesting citrus finish and aftertaste.

330ml bottle. Pale clear straw colour with a small white head, fairly good retention. Aroma: slightly sweet malt, grassy hops. Taste: sweetish malts, slightly fruity citrus hops, a light hoppy bitterness. Overall quite pleasant for a lager, clean, crisp, and wasn’t skunked. Medium carbonation, light body, thin texture, dryish finish. Yeah, not a bad lager at all.

2 yuan for a 330ml not sure if it is this or not, mine was made in China but did have Motueka written on the side... can. It pours a light gold with a decent head and some soapy looking lacing. The nose is grainy & mentholated rub... Urgh. Thin bodied with cardboard, menthol, sugar and... Nothing terribly beer like. Yuck. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
