330ml bottle pours a pale golden color with a 2 finger white head that settles quickly leaving small traces of lacing. Aroma is cereal grains and faint hops with a bit of skunk. Taste is much like the aroma. Slightly above average for the style and refreshing to drink on a hot day.

Bottle 33 cl. Golden, clear with minimal head. MAlty, citrus and some corn aroma. Lite bitter taste with a light citrus/corn ending. Under average, but better than expected, a new state for me.

Bottle at work. Did you know I actually have a Maudite glass at work?!?! I didn’t either! The fact that I found one inspired this rating. Grtoss-looking stuff, poured from a clear glass bottle, somewhat hazy yellow/gold, with a thin white head that quickly reduces to a bubbly skim. Lacing is spotty to bad. Nose is skunky, dusty metaqllic notes playing off an almost impossibly-skunked hop aroma, with some grass and adjunct lurking beneath. Tastes incredibly sweet. Good Lord thisstuff is like candy sweet! I don’t know what I expected, but it wasn’t this! It almost tastes sweet enough to be unfermented! Impossibly gross!

Not very good. It has an aroma, but it is akin to some spoiled grain or wet straw. Nothing special about the the looks. It has a decent taste that I would welcome in the Caribbean, (especially if it was readily available) and reminds me of being in the Bahamas. Thin and light. Overall it’s not a beer to look for, but I would gladly have one if I found it on tap in the Caribbean.
