Tight white head on a well carbonated murky coloured dull golden coloured body.
Minimal pale malt & caramel aroma.
Medium bodied, finely carbonated & foamy with a cloying back.
Zesty citrus, malt, grainy, oat & caramel tastes with a bitter finish.
Tastes like it's made with cheap crap ingredients.

0.375 l bottle from 'SpeciaalBierPakket.nl', best before July 2026. Hazy, golden amber with a thin, frothy, quickly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, slightly floral aroma of honey, some grains and hints of straw. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, a bit floral taste of honey, corn, some grains and traces of straw, followed by a short, gently bitter, slightly dry finish. Thin to medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Super bland, almost stale; nothing special at all.

I first drank this when I was in Adelaide in 2003, loved it so much I brought the t shirt. Had it a number of times since it's been imported to the UK. Still always enjoy it, a really easy drinking pale ale.

Bottle. The taste was somewhat "milder" then I expected. So many times a cloudy beer will have a distinct taste. Nice balance with a definite thirst quenching quality about it. Slightly” sweet and malty in the aroma. Nice beer.

Pours a hazy golden colour with a thin white head. Aroma of malts, some grassy hops. There isn?t much to it. Far too watery for my taste.

It is a classical pale, on the English way, easy to drink, decently bitter, a bit sweet, traditional copper body. 21.07.2017

Bottle from House of Trembling Madness. Misty gold with small white top, minor retention. Aroma of caramel and wafer, fairly sweet with some floral hops. Crisp carbonation bite. Quite simple in taste also - reasonable pale malts with light grassy, light apricot and floral hopping. In modern terms its between a lager and pale ale but probably closer to the former. Very quaffable on that basis
