[On tap at the South Sea Hotel, Oban, Stewart Island, NZ.] A straw coloured pour with a thin white head; sweet cereal grain aroma; sweet grainy taste; and a sweet finish. A very ordinary lager.

Bottle. This was a terrible beer. It was very weak and watery with a nasty taste.

Cloudy yellow/golden pour. Malt, (sweet) citrus, lemonade. The lemon juice makes it slightly less sweet than others. Alright for what it is.

6.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Can ordered from Beautiful Beers, Bury St Edmunds. Aroma has sour edged caramel. Classic dark amber. Head disappears in seconds. The flava mirrors tbe aroma, if in a more refined way. Citrus sourness backed up by sugary caramel. Slightly chemical but not to its detriment. Light. Thin if slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long slightly dry finish. Refreshing. Pleasent.
