This lager poured a clear light yellow colour with a creamy, bright white head. Minimal lacing. Scents include creamed corn, malt, honey and little hops. First swig was smooth and a little thin with flavours of corn, malt and honey. Finish is lightly sweet with almost no hop bitterness.

12 oz can. Clear light gold pour with a white head and poor retention. No lacing. Lots of carbonation yet a rather flat mouthfeel. Smooth and light. Tastes more like a generic lager / helles than an amber lager. Simple. Easy-drinking.

Pitcher in Colombo, pours a clear gold with some creamy white head. Nose is what you expect, some corn, yeast, light lemon, light grist. Flavor has something a little bit sour, like corn that’s gone bad, yeast, straw, dough. Finishes a touch creamy.

Draft - Raspberry jam and clotted cream. Hazy yellow with a rich white head. Raspberry, sweet, tart and bitter. Not too bad, all the different flavors balance so it isn’t too sweet or tart or cloying.
