Bottle. Brewed by Israeli Beer Breweries (Carlsberg Israel). 3.9%. Clear yellow color with a small white head. Skunked aroma with cereals and some creamed corn notes. Sweet grainy flavor with corn, some stale bread hints and a light unpleasant metallic bitterness in the finish. Watery mouthfeel. Pretty awful.

Pours up clear copper with minute long off white head. The aroma hits first with grainy malts and cereal before noble floral and spicy hops take over. I think I get a background of earthiness in there too. The taste has a pulse of sweet sugar flavored malts first that are quickly consumed by mild grains, floral and spice hops bitterness. The floral hops and grains run into the finish with a hint of earthiness picking up somewhere along the way and hanging into the after taste. Interesting brew and pretty decent for the style.

Very much a standard pale lager. Pale orangey-amber color with a nice creamy head. Light grassy aroma. Sweetish, but not malty -more of a fake corny and grainy sweetness, with a hint like grain alcohol had been mixed in. A bit lemony. Light-med body.

Pours clear amber color with a medium beige head that lasts pretty well. Thin, spotty lacing. Aroma of sweet malt and grassy hops. Medium-bodied with a sweet malt character, as well as some caramel and grain flavoring. The finish is sweet and a little chalky, with a mild hops bitterness lingering. Passable overall.

Clear amber body, light, quickly dissipating off-white head. Aroma of herbal hops and slightly sweet toast. Fruity, nutty body I typically associate with brown ales. Sharp carbonation highlights the nutty, toasty flavors. Although this is a rather thin-bodied beer everything comes together pretty nicely. Pretty unique.

Pours of course a dirty blond. Nice head that rises and falls quickly. Aroma is kind of soapy. Flavor is not very complex you get a little hops and some malt thrown in there. Not awful but not really something to go out and find.

A bit darker golden colour than normal (almost a light amber) with a large dense off-white head. Nice looking, better than expected already! Brown sugar, metal, hops and a slight frutiness in the aroma. Light-bodied; Sweet flavour with hints of sugar, a mild fruit quality and a light maltiness. Aftertaste is very short lived, and not complex at all. Overall, this one isn't horrible, but it's not too great. I bought this twelve ounce bottle at Beers of the World in Rochester, New York.
