Grainy and mild sweetness in the aroma while the appearance is pale gold. The flavor is grainy and malty, with a smooth finish. Although this was almost a month past its "best before" listed on the bottle and it was a twist top, it was decent and thankfully not oxidized, although it might have been fuller in flavor if fresh and gotten a slightly higher score otherwise.

1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20 Maris (544) - Canberra, AUSTRALIA - AUG 26, 2011
From a 375ml bottle on 27/8/2011. Pours a very light golden with a biggish head. Has a slight grass, grainy aroma. Flavour wise, there is very little to talk about. It’s bland and sterile, with just enough evidence of malt and hops to take it out of the awful category. But only just.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 northropfrye (845) - Steinbach, Manitoba, CANADA - AUG 7, 2011
UPDATED: SEP 2, 2011 Bottle. A nice quality lager. Clear and crisp. Nothing special really, but a passable lager.

12oz bottle poured golden into glass with quickly diminishing white head, grassy hop and slightly sweet malt, and generous carbonation, yields a good easy drinking brew.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 JorisPPattyn (6726) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - JUL 24, 2011
Darker metallic golden beer, well-carbonated under a small white head. Corn, cornflakes, toasted malts, garden weeds, shrimp (DMS?). Toasted malts, ending on a little sweetness; again fleeting mineral/shrimp, hinting at DMS. Pretty carbonated, little bit of grist slickness, but empty palate, watery. Slightly better than average lager.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 RobertDale (970) - Lansing, Kansas, USA - JUL 17, 2011
12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear pale gold with an average white head. Aroma of malt, yeast and grain. Taste is malt and hops. Light and clean. Decent.
1.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 Stephanos (863) - NORTHERN IRELAND - JUL 14, 2011
Pale golden lager with a crisp lemony aroma gives way to a dry rye character with underlying cats piss. Probably some skunked character showing through due to green glass bottle. Tastes a bit like soluble paracetamol at the end. Abrupt finish. Would not want to allow this to warm up as flavours would worsen.
