This was poured into a pilsener glass.
The appearance was a decent looking clear to somewhat light hazy yellow color with a decent carbonation seen rising a rocky foamy two finger white head.
The smell had mainly a grassy/hay-like qualities running over top of a light skunkiness (yes, I know I have a green bottle, its okay, I shall proceed).
The taste was grassy and hay-like again and added a light sweet corn-like feature to it that was okay but not great. The aftertaste was kinda harsh and assaulting a bit through the skunky yet sweet corn-like feature.
On the palate, this one sat fairly light and had a decent sessionable quality about it.
Overall, I say this was a decent pale lager, its nothing to go bonkers about but if anything I think I’d try this again on tap.

Pours a clean golden color and topping it is about two finger of white head which dissipates quite quickly. There is the familiar mild hoppy aroma with perhaps some grains complementing it. The taste is light, crisp. Some initial (mils) sweetness is followed by a nicely balanced body with slightly bitter finish. Nothing special about this one, just your typical refreshing and drinkable lager.

Canned (thanks CueSheet & SADESA). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grass, some herbs, bready notes as well as some sweet maltiness. Flavour is floral, grassy and quite hop dominated with some mild notes of toffee as well. Surprisingly good.

33cl bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - amber, slight haze, some head. Nose - green beans and pale malt (cornflakes) Taste - more of the green vegetables, more of the breakfast cereal. Palate - light body but decent balance, perhaps almost as clean as the ’Pure’. Overall - it’s another good lager. I like it.
