Honey golden color, small white head. Aroma of alcohol, apple peels and cider. Sweet malty, apple-like flavor. Hints of alcohol. Warming sweetish finish. Indian version of East European malt liquer, not so bad than it sounds. You just have to get fresh enough sample.

This was my first and last time trying this beer. The green bottle is of course a warning. Very few acceptable beers come in a green bottle. This one poured a dark amber color with a large soapy white head. The aroma is typical macro swill. The flavor is typical macro lager with a bit of skunk. The only good thing that I can say about this one is that it survived getting a bit warm better than most macros. ANY BREWER WHO CONSENTS TO PUTTING THE BEER IN A GREEN BOTTLE SHOULD BE BANNED FROM EVER BREWING AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Paid $1.50 for an 11oz single. Very light yellow in color, very large white head. Smells of sweet grasses and wheat. Taste is also very sweet and grassy... not bad, though not my first choice when picking a beer to drink.

This one poured a light yellow with next to no head. Even after a rough pour. Doughy Yeast is first to the nose. Cheesy earth notes. Initial taste had a smoky flavour to it. Hickory to be exact. With slight cheesy flavours. Finish was watery, with the palate the same other than the light smoke flavour. OK I guess...

This one poured a pee yellow with next to no head. I walked from one room to another and smelt nothing but a skunks ass. Green bottle turned this one to mush. Taste isn't so skunky but is lacking everything. Watery from the beginning to end. Has almost no taste at all! Finish is .....blah!
