Clear yellow of color with a white head. An aroma of citrus, hay and weak hops. A flavor of citrus, hops, bisquit and weak sweets.

500 ml Tallboy - Smells a bit unlike something you expect to be as good as this is - wet hayish. Cleary yellow, but almost, just about hazy. Almost makes you think your going to taste apple juice as it rushes down the glass to your mouth and then it’s sweet beer. Well, the smell is sweet but it tastes standard lager-ish with a very nice hop finish, slightly bold but soft around the edges. The carbonation is quite nice on the throat as well.

Bottle. Brewed in Denmark, so its the original. That doesn’t hewlp though. Still boring. Needs some more taste

Bottle. Clear yellow with a medium frothy head. Below average retention and minimal lacing. Aroma is very faint malt and adjunckts. Flavor is malt, corn, cardboard and minimal hops. Thin body..

the smell was just extremely faint and corny, pale yellow. horrible artificial corny taste, though not a strong unpleasant flavour it is overwhelmingly unpleasant. way too carbonated and they have the nerve to describe it as "possibly the best beer in the world" on the can. wow

UPDATED: AUG 4, 2010 (on draft in Hong Kong) pale golden color, almost no head, very faint hoppy aroma, generally unremarkable flavour, bitter but not very long finish (can in Middle East - brewed in Turkey) clear pale gold with tall white head; faint spicy aroma; balanced but not much flavour; rather boring and uninspired

Pours pale golden. Mild hop taste but pretty faint. Not horrible but not anything great.

The 500ml can sold in Quebec can be bought for as less as 2,69$. New, so it’s fresh. And really not bad. Graham cookie in the smell and taste. Pretty malty, notes of some sweetness, light and subtle hopping, slightly tongue tingling but this isn’t leading to such a great finish or product. Still a very decent macro beer, especially in can, I believe.
