Bottle. Solid siny golden color with the signature Aksarben head; The very light aroma reminds of the apple shisha pipes in the middle east ... sweet and tart. The beer drinks initially syrupy sweet, a sugary biscuit. Finishes pretty dry. Something not quite balanced here.

In the bottle at the brewpub. Pale yellow with a big white head. The carbonation bubbles are enormous. Maybe they are trying for an Asahi or a Sapporo, but this is not a dry beer. No aroma. Crisp! Quinten Crisp! Has an immediate bolus of hop flavor that disappears very very fast. Refreshing and extremely light. Does actually have some actual lager flavor. Aroma also reminds me a bit of Heineken. Taste finishes a bit dusty.
