On tap at The Pineapple Beach Club in Antigua on vacation. Pours a clear gold with a thin, fizzy, short lived white head that fully dissipates. Aroma of grainy malt and skunk. Sweet flavour of grainy malt, corn and skunky hops with a mildly bitter finish. Light body with a thin, watery texture and average carbonation. Not good, not even in the Caribbean heat.

Bottle split at Cotteridge Convention IV, many thanks, 23/06/18. Pale golden blonde with a decent off white cap. Nose is pale malts, grass, papery aroma. Taste comprises straw, grains, pale malts, cereals. Medium bodied, fine to spritzy carbonation, semi drying close. Dull ... standard country tick type of affair.

Yet another local island brew on our voyage through the Caribbean. This was picked up at a kiosk at Falmouth port and brought back to the ship to drink. The label on the green bottle says 250 ml (8.5 oz). No glassware involved, drink from the bottle. Expected scent from a lager, grain, slightly grassy and something metallic. After a warm and humid day the first sip is not bad, a hint of lemon, biscuit, rather watery, practically no bitterness. The beer benefits from being served as cold as possible. One and done, blessed to get a sampling, time to move on.

250ml bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, thanks to Eric for bringing this back. Pours clear gold, thin white head. Aroma of grainy corn, syrup sweetness. Taste is pretty bad, metallic, corn, skunky, rotting veg. Worse than expected.
