Green bottles usually mean certain death in the beer world whether it be to the taste or the aroma. Why are they always so skunky? So Boris is one of the more putrid of the pack. Stick to Heineken or Stella instead.

This basically sucked. Pale gold, OK head. Sweet corn flake aroma. Flavor was like a watery Kronenbourg. Touch of skunk on top of everything. Cute little bottle though.

UPDATED: JAN 5, 2005 This is a pale, weak, skunky beer. Kind of like Heineken, except more expensive.

bottle. grassy aroma with a hint of hops. pale golden with a small creamy head. slightly hoppy flavour but still very light. sweet. has some decent flavour but is toned down too much.

I expect this sample is old, but it is simply terrible. Undrinkable due to extreme lightstruck skunkiness and harsh, dry finish. Aftertaste is rot and garbage. Pour immediately. Cool little bottle is unique with cool label.

Terrible rye, vegetable, juice in the bottom of the trash nose. Rotting garbage taste. Like paper mache. This is not good.

jgentgesdo (596) - Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA - AUG 20, 2004
Pours pale yellow with smallish white head. Aroma is faint floral and pine. Watery flavor, mild hops bitterness at the end. Very boring. Says "ale" on bottle, tastes like a lager.

Pours clear and golden with a small white head and shunky aroma. It has an odd nasty watery lemon taste without a bite. Carbonation is weak and flat. The 8.5 oz bottle was probably created so you don’t have to bear drinking 12 oz of this at a time. I would pass on this one.
