330ml bottle into schooner glass. Brewed & bottled for Pinnacle liquor but identical otherwise. Aroma of stale bread and distant malt. Golden amber beer with fast disappearing head. Zingy in the mouth with initial bitterness. Finish has slight maltiness followed by tinny hops. Not bad for a ’supermarket’ beer.

Bottle, 0.33l. Clear deep golden color with small fully diminishing white head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma is grassy, grainy and bready. Taste starts with light sweet maltiness, following is vegetably, mouthfeel is dry, while finish is light bitter. Light body, thin texture and soft carbonation in palate. Another poor lager...

From a 330ml bottle on 11/8/2013. Pours a clear bright golden with a small head. Has a slight grassy, grainy aroma. The flavour features a little sweet malt followed by a common macro metallic hop bitterness. Has a light body and medium carbonation. Actually a bit better than I was expecting for a low carb beer, but still quite horrible. I can’t think why anyone would want to drink this type of gear on a regular basis.

Bottle. Poured clear straw, no head. Grassy / vege aroma. Light body, medium carbonation. Bread / grain foretaste with a lemony tartish finish. It would be OK if you were thirsty and there wasn’t anything else, but not if you want a good beer.

I was pleasantly surprised while rating this, as it seemed no where near as horrible as I remembered. Perhaps leaving it in a cupboard for 4 months improved it...Pale amber, white head dissipates to thin layer rapidly.Aroma is of weak grainy malt, with a very slight floral hops hint. Not so pleasant solvent notes, as well as the expected skunk.Very mild malt taste, with watery cloying finish that has next to no bitterness.Very watery, but what would you expect from a pale lager.

330 ml. green bottle. Nice fresh aroma. Pale malt and something like floral/herbal hop. Slightly hazy lemony gold color with no head. White dots of foam. Rather thin bodied, with a very mild carbonation. The flavor is not sweet, but malt balanced with some bitter and something rather veggy. Not bad. Maybe it’s a hint citrusy. Whatever, this has, it is interesting and much better than any of the American macro lagers I can recall.
