Bottle. Pours a straw color with a thin white head. Best before date of 8/12/11. It was oxidized and the aroma was skunk. Taste is very thin and light but overpowered by the skunkiness. A bit of pepper at the end. I’m sure this is much better fresh though has a taste of a light euro macro brew like Beck’s Light. Too bad for the green bottle.

2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle. A clear, golden beer with a small, white head. The aroma is boring as hell, with some pale malts and a fruity touch. The flavor is pretty much the same, pale malts and fruityness, but very little of it. Bitterness? Not much, just a hint. Medium to thin body. Overall, super-boring. 110601

3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: APR 12, 2012 A huge fan of this lager. Not a spectacular beer in any way but a solid, refreshing and crisp lager that most could easily have a fair few of. A repectable Aussie lager

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
33cl bottle. A golden lager with a small amount of head and some bubbles. The nose has oatmeal with just the slightest hint of lemon grass on the end. The taste has more oatmeal, some hay and some freshly cut grass notes. The palate is fairly substantial for this style being medium bodied and medium structured. As expected and hoped for, there is a dry refreshing finish. Overall, a decent lager to have one or several of.
