BOMB FRANCE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!! This pig slop tastes like liquid alfalfa sprouts. Like grass clippings soaked in bile! It attempts (weakly) at some flavor, but like the French army v.s. ...........ANY other army, it fails. I bought a 12 pack (of those annoying 8.5 ounce bottles) for $8.99 in Milwaukee on 10/21/04. Theres is a $5 rebate, but they make you go through hoops to get it! I’ll bet anything I don’t get the refund. But even if I do, this whore juice isn’t worth $3.99!! Do me a favor: if your reading this, E-mail me to confirm you read it! At least I’ll get the satisfaction of knowing I warned someone about it! Blech! Truly vulgar!! UPDATE: I mailed the rebate in on October 25, 2004. Today is January 18, 2005. I have received NOTHING! What a scam! UPDATE: You’re not going to believe this! I swear to God it’s true! Today is Monday, April 18th, 2005. I RECEIVED MY $5 REBATE TODAY!!!!! ALMOST 6 MONTHS TO THE DAY!!! 6 MONTHS!! WTF?!?!?!!

Pours a clear straw yellow colour with a thick fluffy head that actually lasts for a little while. Nose is faint, but there is some grassy hops present there. Favour is a little bit skunky, and kind of tastes like flour, kind of chalky. I guess it’s fairly dry. The hops that were present in the nose don’t come through so much in the taste, just a bit of bitterness. Aftertaste pretty much doesn’t exist. Carbonation is a bit low for a pils or a pale lager or whatever it’s supposed to be.

This one is rated a little lower than I would have expected. It’s nothing great, but it was a fairly clean tasting lager. Went down smooth. 1664 is a lot better though.

500ml can sampled from a friend. This err... wasn’t good. It wasn’t horrible either. There isn’t really much to say about it. Take your average lager and shift the flavour around a bit. No hops present on the tongue, not sweet either. Just plain and boring. But not disgusting either. Take it as you will.
