A European style lager brewed from the finest quality pilsner malts. This beer is fermented at a lower temperature than most Australian lagers, and employs an extended maturation period. These combine together with a mixture of kettle and late hopping to yield a crisp pale lager.

375ml can on Qantas flight. Pours gold. Acidic aroma, peach, syrupy, quite bready and a little cardboard. Decent body. Not great.

375ml bottle at the July 2016 Shrewsbury Bottle Share meeting: cheers Mat. Bright, clean and clear golden body with a fast fading white head. Corn led aroma and taste, but not all bad, as it tasted OK, if a little on the sweet side.

330ml bottle from Discount Supermarket, Cardiff. Pours clear gold, white head. Sweetcorn / syrup aroma. Taste isn’t actually that bad, nicely balanced with a mild sweetness, low bitterness and no off-flavours. Would have again.

Haven’t had one of these since college down under back around turn of century and since pale lagers go well with Indian food ordered. Norma golden colored. Nose is faint hops and light grains. Tastes of grains, hint of piney hops, touch of malt. No off flavors and refreshing enough for what it is.

375 ml bottle. Bright pale Gold color. Decent sized fluffy white head. Faint grainy malt nose. Zesty, light bodied, grainy malt flavor with metallic notes. Some citrus hops, but barely evident. A good hot weather lager. Nothing more.
