Miguel (1181), Sorel-Tracy, Quebec, Canada Jul 27, 2007 Robe blonde très claire surmontée d’une mousse blanche qui s’estompe. Arômes de moufette. Saveurs de houblon amérisant et de moufette.
KingGambrinus (93), Santiago, Chile Oct 5, 2008 Pale yellow and small head. Aroma of grains and slightly hoppy, plus a weird lemon like aroma. Sweet malt flavor, watery. I thought I would enjoy one of this low alcohol beers but I just can’t. This was the last one. acrdz (4361), Boulder, Colorado, USA Sep 25, 2008 12oz bottle. The cap is popped off and instantly I get a whiff of fusel chemical cleaner and spoiled ginger ale. The nutrisweet-like corn and ginger-infused bathroom cleaner is an instant turnoff, and the perfectly clear light yellow body suggests I made a mistake with this whole thing. Shamelessly trying to knock off another style with 10 ratings minimum, I decided to pick up a few NAs, but I’m also curious because I really have no idea what the "style" is like. It’s been a few years. There’s a light creaminess to the texture, frothy but not full. It dissolves on the tongue quickly and leaves a spoiled ginger and celery flavor coating the mouth. Passable for sure, it’s not the worst thing in the world, but I don’t really see how anyone would want to drink this regularly. The long-lasting finish of sweet-n-low is possibly the worst thing this beer offers. An interesting experience. FatPhil (2350), Espoo, Finland Sep 22, 2008 330ml bottle (K Market)<br />
Beyond anaemic - gnats’ piss. Dry dusty version of the usual cornflake aroma. Lively carbonation, very thin body. Grassy metallic hops, some lemon, lots of dry dusty cornflakes. Cornflakes picked up from the corner of your kitchen floor when you finally get round to sweeping the floor. Nasty metallic finish. Drivers - don’t drink this, drink anything else instead. austone (437), Turku; Pori, Finland Sep 19, 2008 Unbelievably pale anemic brew. Classic sweet corn NA aroma. Terrible stuffy, dry flavor, tangy hops and corn. Watery, fizzy palate. So far the worst tasting beer I’ve had. Doggythedog (1018), Split, Croatia Sep 16, 2008 0.33l bottle with the back label in Arabic, courtesy of and shared with heavy (thanks!) Poured a yellow body with a persistent white head. Malty nose, not all that off. Empty, salty taste with some hop present (!) and some light sweet maltiness that wasn’t offensive (!!). My my. A passable n/a beer from Beck’s. Who would’ve thought.
