Bomber poured and shared by Eric. Dude, this is awesome. I saw this sitting across the room and I said, "what do you have here?!?". He replies " I don't know... Let's find out.". I nerd out over rare country lagers more than rare whales. Cheers to that! I was just swinging by to grab a growler. Not anymore. Pours a clean, shiny golden pour, plenty of carb, a decent amount of active fizz head. A cornish grain on the nose, which had me worried, but the flavor on this blows away all expectations from an international pale lager. Barely a corn grain, a slight sweet malt. Interesting enough hops added to this. Am I supposed to like this this much? Either way, I do.

650ml bottle [Thanks Steffi!]. Clear, yellow-ish, golden colour with small to average, thick, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, snow-white head. Strawy, grainy aroma, a mild touch of silage. Taste is minimally sweet pale malty, grassy hoppy overtones, some malt spiciness, moderate hop bitterness; slightly watery. Clean and well balanced.

Bottle received as a gift from a friend. Thank you! 650 ml. bottle sampled @ home. BBF 02/16. Sticker on the back states that this was imported into Belgium. Surprised that there is a market big enough for this in Belgium to warrant shipping this across the globe. Clear golden, disappearing paper-white head. Nose is nasty corn, huge vegetable oil, very sweet industrial corn & eggs. Taste is sweet empty corn, vegetable oil, low mineral, big sweet corn, basic weird sweetener & corn sweetness, vegetables, starch, hay,… Oily, tad watery, quite industrial sweet,.. Very basic sweetness, no real bad flavours,… Not very good but I have definitely had worse, I expected this one to be worse.

Couple of 50cl bottles in my Kathmandu hotel. Pours a clear gold with some sticky, white head. Doesn’t look bad. Nose has some mild grass notes, a little lemon, but quite corny, a little white flour, quite crackery. Flavor is a bit weaker, lemon, yeast, white flour, a little vitamin C. Watery finish. Had worse.

Bottle. A clear, quite pale golden beer with a small, white head. The aroma is fruity and grainy with a touch of rice cooking water. Rather rice-ish flavor, with grains, apples and pears and the vaguest bitterness. Thin on the palate, with a soft carbonation. Semi-dry. Lasting fruity finish. Surprisingly thin, and not very good either. 141219
