Bottle. Pours a pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma of malts, cardboard and soured cereal grains. Little flavor, mostly rotten cereal. Sweet, watery and flavorless. The nose is malty and slightly sour from the brewing cereal. The color is a light orange, but it has no head. The flavor watery, a little sweet and ending on a slight bitterness. All in all a boring beer - don’t drink it.

This is every bit as terrible as it’s rating suggests. One of those "How do we make a bad beer worse" offerings.

Bottle - medium size foamy head, medium straw color, relatively smooth, and fairly watered down flavor - about a half of step up from the Nattie Light I was drinking tonight also! LOL

Appearance: deep clear gold, with a two-finger bright white head. Aroma: tonic water, hay, a little honey. Taste: like mineral water that someone has wrung a beer-soaked gym sock into. Finish: what finish? Notes: Exactly what you’d expect.

Bottle passed onto me by Jan & Charlotte, at Kerstbier Festival, Belgie Dec 2010, cheers Jan & Charlotte This is one of those beers that sit in your fridge for a very long while next to the opened jar of pickled gherkins that you have somehow never got around to finish, somehow though the Gherkins look more appealing. I’m being hard on this beer because it is difficult to get enthusiastic about it. The fact it is really is so non-descript that one cannot love it or hate it. It’s smooth, golden in colour with white head, lacks bitterness, lacks bite, in fact the flavour just simply departs, watery, thin, not much to this really. A5 A4 T4 P2 Ov8 2.3

UPDATED: AUG 25, 2011 Bottle: at a outdoor cookout: it pours a pale, clear yellow with a white head. Smells sweet, and a little grassy. It tastes like sweet corn syrup and has a dry finish. Bleh... Not great.

24 oz. can Pours a straw color with a frothy head that quickly diipates. Has a sweet aroma of corn syrup. What is the "ice" difference? It adds nothing here taste wise.

It’s your typical macroswill, but a little bit stronger. Nothing to write home about, but respectable at 5.5%
