Bottle: poured a clear golden color with white head. Aroma was sweet grass. Taste was similar with grass, grain, and some metallic. Nice for my warm beach day on St Maarten.

Green-tinged fluorescent yellow colour. Grassy, slightly lemony hop in the lightish aroma alongside very faint pale malts. Very light on the palate with minerally flavours and just a hint of grassiness.

Bottled. Pale yellow, average head. Lightly spicy nose overpowered by rubber. Light bodied, but do actually have some light malt flavour, although hard to detect through all the rubber. Low bitterness. If you forget about the rubber it would be a decent thirst quencher.

Canned, 25 cl (8.5 fl. oz). A friend of mine took this from his trip to Aruba, Neth Antilles. Trying to give you as much information as possible, the can has slogans like: "beer of the west indies", "brewed and canned by antilliaanse brouwerij N.V." and "brewed with desalinated caribbean seawater and all natural ingredients". The beer pours a clear yellow color, with a soda-like white head, which dies immediately. Aroma consists of some faint hops, grain, with a metallic hint, probably from the can, which survived the flight-trip from Aruba to the Netherlands. Taste is quite bitter, moderately sweet and slightly sour even. Watery and dry palate.

A yellow beer with a small disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet and sour with notes of mango, citrus, and lime. The flavor is very fresh with notes of lime and a dry lime finish. A boring beer - but probably very refreshing on a tropical island.

Clear golden color, few bubbles, small head. Aroma is bad, never smell pilseners. Hoppy aroma, bitter very watery taste. Thirst quenching: yes. Not a fantastic beer, but quite drinkable.
