Something new at my beer store. 12 oz green bottle. Has the look of a ubiquitous lager, with very nice attractive streams of carbonation. This makes a beer fun to look at. Skunk smell first then once in the glass it has a more beerlike aroma. The taste is good and clean. without being offensive on the finish. There is enough mechanical bitterness to keep this beer interesting. Lagerlike with some backthroat bite. Well behaved during the session. Good to medium carbonation tingle without being overwhelming. Overall a decent lager that is a little too expensive for this area considering the taste of Schmidts. Good entry into the style if cost was not a problem.

Bottle. Poured slightly off golden color. No discernible aroma, taste is lager, not all that different than any of the other Euro lagers (Heineken, etc.) Finish is forgettable.

Clear gold to water color with off white head. Aroma is mostly grainy malts. The flavor is similar with grain, hay and some light hoppiness. OK beer.

Canned (Thanks GarethYoung!). Pale golden colour with small white bubbly head. Aroma is malts and cowshit (I cheat you not!, the totally weird sweetness reminds of cs...). Flavour is sweet malts along with grassy hops, especially in the finish the hops becomes present.

Poured a thick dark black/brown color with a creamy light brown head. Very sweet caramel aroma. Sweet caramel or molasses like flavor that finished a bit dry.

Bottled in Belize (why this beer is in Belize, I will never know). Really thick and sweet beer. Tasted like straight up chocolate. Almost hard to drink for myself. It definately had a complex palate that was superior to many other beers, but the flavour didn’t really do it for me. The tastes were overpowering and left the taste in my mouth for a little too long.

Can, alc. 3.5% as "Draught Velvet". Clear amber color, steady creamy off-white head. Roasted malty aroma with sort of skunky hops. Smooth mouthfeel, watery, only some roasted malts. Kind of watered down Kilkenny.
