Bottle. Pours clear yellow. Aroma is grains, vegetables, banana. Body is light and thin and watery and carbonation. That's it. Barely any body, barely any bitterness. Meh.

660ml bottle. Pours clear gold, medium white crown. Grainy sweet malt nose. Taste is grainy, sweet malt, adjunct, corn, cardboard. There are worse African lagers but this is far from the best.

Bottle from Asda. Golden in colour with a thin, white, head and touch of carbonation. Aroma of sweetcorn, thin malts and stale hops. Flavour was much of the same, with some cheap ingredients on display. Served at a very low temperature, which meant the beer was just about drinkable. Not good.

17th Sep 2018; monthly beer share in Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury, usual five suspects in attendance. Thanks Simon for the 600ml bottle of this; BB 11th Mar 2019. How do you like your corn? Golden body, clear, clean and bright, fast fading snow white crown on top. The aroma held sweet corn and grass aromas, the taste also grass like but over ridden by the corn flavours; not good at all.

600ml bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Sep '18, Thanks to Simon for muling this all the way from Asda Part of The Walmart Family, Birmingham. Pours clear gold, white head. Aroma is moderately sweet malt. Taste presents light metallic, a little thin, some indistinct off-notes, pretty awful.
