This comes out of the tap a cloudy straw yellow with a frothy white head. Aroma is malty, not too strong, has a hint of banana. Flavor is malty, nice and crisp, more mouth-filling than most lagers. Texture is sassy and jazzy so it makes you take notice while it is headed down the pipes.

Bottle; poured a clear dull gold color with a frothy white head. Aroma of bread, wet grain with a touch of grass. Flavor did have a solid bit of hopping for the style, but it was not all that great or interesting. Grassy and musty. A bit beady and dry overall. Blah.

Pours a typical yellow beer color. Aroma of grass and flowers, a nature smell. Tastes and smells quite skunky with an earthy aftertaste. An okay beer that is boring at best with a grainy taste that was a little difficult to swallow.

330 ml bottle from LCBO. Pours a clear yellow gold with small white head. Aroma is oddly fruity sweet and mildly skunky. Taste has same odd fruity sweetness, biscuit and grass. Best to pass on this one.

This was an easy drinkable beer.But it wasn’t very interesting.Probably the New Zealand counterpart of Budweiser.JUst a party beer for people who aren’t into micro brews.

Bottle 330ml. Boring. Aromas of straw, and a bit of sulphur. Sweet taste, with light bitterness. Thin and watery in the palate. Yellow and bubbly, with a frothy white head.
