I don’t know maybe it was because I was really thirsty and this was very easy to drink. I was not off-put by this beer. I mean don’t get me wrong, far from great. Nice soapy looking white head into straw body. Cereal aromas with a clean almost crispness to finish.

Can. Nice golden color with a persistent white head.The aroma is some corns or rice, I really don’t know, flavor is dry and refreshing, low bitterness, finish is dry! Cerveja dourada com espuma densa e persistente, aroma de milhou ou arroz, nção consegui definir bem. sabor refrescante e pouco amarga, deixa um sabor seco no final.

500 ml can: Typical lager pour...blah, blah, blan...golden,white head etc. Yeasty/floral aroma. ’Wet’ on the front of the palate with little else going on. Slight dry finish...not the super dry I was expecting. The can says it’s ’the beer for all seasons’. While I’m not sure if this is true, it does go down well on a sweltering June day while working over a hot BBQ. Pretty bland overall.

12oz bottle. golden color. no head. aroma of corn flakes. Light body. No flavor but malt.

Bottle. Aroma of stale grains. Pours yellow with a white fizzy head. Very mild flavor, mostly of corn and straw. It goes down smooth enough, but I wouldn’t say it’s even as good as a Budweiser.

Bouteille. Couleur jaune-or, claire, mousse mince qui s’estompe lentement. Arôme léger de grain. Goût de grain sucré, finale très dry. Effervescence moyenne, mince. Aucune particularité.

Weak in color and aroma. Drinking too much of this can help your karaoke skills, but that is about it. This is better than a Bud Light, but that isn’t saying much.

Bottle. Pale yellow colour with a small white head. Malty aroma and taste with a dry hoppy finish. Still boring.

Bottle, no pour. Aroma has some floral notes and some malt, no skunk is a plus. Taste is slight malt and maybe some floral hop, which is more flavor than I expected. Finish is dry and somewhat fruity-sour. Palate is highly tingly with a bit much carbonation, and light and dry as advertised. Almost seems like a mild bitter lite, and is one of the better industrial lagers. I still wouldn’t ever drink this if there were a good ale (or even a micro lager) available.

Yeah. A piss poor pale lager, Japanese style. Nothing redeeming about this. Only good for washing down some late night sushi. I’m done talking about this.
