Some sort of half-arsed marketing sounding I guess. Can, very cold. Pale gold with a white head that collapses to a fat coat. Not a lot of aroma - some grain, a hint of honey, weeds. Watery. Not a lot of flavour either, but it's clean. Some grain, perhaps a little more very CUB weedy bitterness than I'd expected. Inoffensive.

Draft. Clear gold color with a small white head and great retention. Good lacing. Generic pale malts aroma. Generic lager flavor too. A little strong/raw versus a BMC, but not objectionable. Serviceable.

Golden with a thin white head. Malty, acerbic aroma. Taste is fairly full bodied, dominated by malt with a little grassiness. Palate is much of the same, acerbic rice malt. Meh.

375ml can into shaker. From BWS, Glen Innes. Pours a very pale yellow with zero head, medium carbonation. Nose is tart apple, hint of sherbet. Easy drinking, slight fizz. Finish is dry with hints of green apple. Fairly basic cider but not madly sweet so drinkable if forgettable.

Used to see this on tap in Sydney where it was always served on ice with a strawberry! No ice, no strawberry here. Just a clear 330ml bottle from BWS, Glen Innes, into a pint glass. Pours a crystal clear pink with no head and light carbonation. Nose is yeasty with a hint of dried fruit. Effervescent and dry with late drying sweetness. Not too bad but really aimed at the 'Racecourse Champagne' crowd.
