Bottled. a yellow beer with a lazing white head. The aroma has notes of cardboard, vitamins, and brewing cereal. The flavor is sweet with cardboard, diacethyl, brewing cereal, and a bit of malt, leading to a dry finish. Thanks Morten for sharing.

What a label! Big pound plus bottle. Looks like hazy light pale lager, almost wheatish. Smell reminds me of old bottled lager too. Has an old lager beer flavor, aged, yah know? Low alky makes this tolerable. Somewhat weird, I’d like to try this fresh. I think taj mahal may have been better. This stuff even has trouble hiding 4.5%, tastes more like 6. I had some aged bedgy bottled lager that tasted like this.

650 mL bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville, VA. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with not much of a head. Aroma of sweet, syrupy malts with a bit of toastiness. The taste is grassy hops, toasted malts with a bit of a sugary finish and some apple-like fruit notes. Light and a little on the watery side. Much like your typical Indian restaurant fare. 5/11/10.

bottle at Ft Wayne tasting - Pours clear yellow and bubbly. It has a mild, grainy malt aroma and a bland malt flavor. It’s thin, it’s watery, and it’s just not good. Why?

Bottle from Beer Geek. Pours a light hazy gold with a decent fluffy white head. Aromas are sort of citric and biscuit. Near medium body with full carbonation. There’s a metallic tang, but it’s not all that obtrusive. I’m getting something like fruit/citrus over light malt. Finishes rather clean. Lightlly bitter - like a touch of lemon peel. IMHO it’s better than many pale lagers.

Bottled 650ml (PBF, brewed 2008, courtesy of ohmper). Pale yellow color, small white head, Interesting aroma: mix of instant coffee and lemon ... pale lager... Lots of cardboard, some papery hops, dry maltyness (rice?). Light palate. Not as bad as it sounds.
