This is the driest beer I have ever tasted. Color is between urine and maple syrup. Nose is very papery and crusty. Dry. No hops apparent. Corn present. Very similair to Asahi dry but with a little more character. Eh...

33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a dense, creamy and chalk white head. Light spiced and cornish dry aroma. Flavour is dry cornish with a mild bitterness. Light spiced yet towards bland bitterness in the finish.

(Bottle 34 cl) Clear golden with a dense, white head. Sweet aroma of brewing cereal. Medium body with sweet corn and a somewhat crude bitterness in the finish. A rather primitive Pale Lager. 030508

A local favourite amongst the guys when we go on tour (usually a crate or to of 750ml bottles), has become somewhat of a tradition. Not a bad beer... once you get used to it.
