COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed exclusively with Tasmanian pale malts, the straw colour of this fine textured, subtle lager gives a clear clue that the beer has an exceptionally smooth finish, leaving the palate highly refreshed. The beer is crisp, clean and dry, giving it a refreshing finish that is particularly suited to matching spicy food, rich in flavour.

Bottled. Pale yellow with small, brief head. Light lemon aroma.Sweet and watery with very light body and low bitterness. All that prevails is a vague, artificial lemon flavour.

KolonelKlink (65) - AUSTRALIA - OCT 7, 2010
Bottle. Pours piss-yellow with small white head. Aroma: Imagine you are on a beach. Now imagine that a huge dog emerges from the ocean, rolls in seaweed and then gets farted on by an old man that has just won the Guinness world record for consuming the most beans to ever have been consumed in a single sitting. This beer smells like this dog. Metallic, weird aftertaste, spritzy. Superthin body. Very, Very average.

not as bad as the others, at least it has a slight honey after taste with a bit of creaminess that finishes clean.

vanDahl (9) - Churchill, AUSTRALIA - JUN 13, 2010 does not count
330ml bottle. Always wary of beer presented in clear bottles. Pours light pale with a thin head. No lacing on the glass. Definite citrus bouquet expected from a Radler beer. Very light on the tongue with subtle lemon notes that linger. Thin but presentable beer for sessions on a hot day.

altonbrownd (3580) - Brussels, BELGIUM - SEP 18, 2009
Bottle at Coco’s Outback. Yellow body with slight head. Faint nose with crisp, lagery taste. Not much to it. But refreshing after all the strong ales I had earlier in the evening.

Dervock (303) - Emu plains, AUSTRALIA - SEP 12, 2009
Bottle - Pours Bright/light yellow with a small white head. Not much of an aroma, bit of malt. Not much flavour either, some sweet malt, very watery. Not offensive just not very good!

UnholyBrewing (517) - Central Florida(Upper Hell), Florida, USA - MAY 1, 2009
...bottle. Pours a weird light yellow with a golden tinge. Aromas of citrus, and sweet malt, not much else. Flavors were the same, with a citrus aftertaste that gets really cloying after a couple. Watery, I don’t know, some batches are better than others, it’s an ok beer.

Papsoe (22948) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - FEB 27, 2009
Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Clear golden with a rough white head. Sweetish malt aroma. Medium body with sweet malts and brewing cereal combined with notes of lemon pop. Is this some sort of Radler?. A little sulphur in the finish. 190209
