Countbeer (1944) - Best of Eindhoven ohne Brauhaus, NETHERLANDS - SEP 29, 2011
Bottle: Small white head on top of a yellow golden colored beer. Smell malts, herbs, grains.. Pretty faint. Taste is a watery mix of hervs, malts, some slight bitterness, hint o hops and sweets. Aftertaste disappears quick, only catched some herbs, malts and sweets. But again, faint. Quite boring.

Bottle from supermarket with exotic food and drinks, Vienna. Yellow color with almost no head. aroma of cabbage, corn. Taste, very sweet, it seems they added there orange juice with some rotten fruit. Awful.

Powertrip (841) - Calgary, Alberta, CANADA - AUG 27, 2011
Bottle given to me by my good ’ol uncle on 08/27/2011. Colour: slightly off yellow with minimal thin white head. Nose: very common Caribbean aroma...light and malty. A slight herbal note is refreshing. Taste: medium sweet, light bitter, light sour. Sweeter than your average tropical beer - but standard stuff. Drinkable on a hot day.

watson1977 (1252) - The dub c, Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 23, 2011
Pours a very clear pale yellow with a thick foamy white head...retention and lacing are actually ok. Aroma is a bit skunkt with hops. Flavor is also skunky with straw or hay. Mouthfeel is super light...a bit watery but a bit lively. Finish lingers with a skunkyness that tastes kinda bad.

Really quite a bad beer. Metalllic and thin. Quite offensive to the palate. Not recommended.

Slightly sweet malty taste, but other then that not much taste at all. It did have a good aroma.

Beerman6686 (2548) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 5, 2011
This poured a lighter golden color with a white head. Aroma was of light metallic corn and light grass. Flavor was much like the aroma, some adjunct touches too. Not good by any means but better than american macros.

Bills (21) - Mission Viejo, California, USA - JUL 14, 2011
Well considering this is the most popular tap anywhere you go in the Caribbean, i figured why not... This beer is a bud light with a slightly worse smell and a slight metallic aftertaste. The barely-noticeable earthy notes are the only thing saving this brew from sheer disaster.
