with the aussies at work. let the mayhem continue. Boys, i never heard anyone serenade over such a shit, sorry, beer. but hey, i’m sure there are some fond memories there... Smells of sweet corn, light straw in colour, little white head. Very drinkable as in it tastes of hardly anything, very sweet watery, at best, lager.

Forms a dense head of fine suds in the clear glass bottle. Some genuine grainy malt notes for once, as opposed to cornflake/adjuncts. Inexcusably feeble and sweet, but slips down refreshingly without great offence, which is something I suppose. No hops whatsoever, but I wasn’t expecting any. Crisp, clean, dull, bit of a guilty pleasure.

UPDATED: JUL 22, 2008 Clear golden with tiny off white head. Sweet fruity aroma with caramel notes. Sweet cardboardish flavor with notes of caramel and malt.

37.5 cL bottle. Pours clear and yellow with a diminishing white head. Light grainy to cornish aroma. Flavour is mild cornish with a medium sweet base. Slowly increasing bitterness into the finish.

Pours a nice light golden yellow. Aromas of hops, grass, and maybe corn. Taste is crisp with a nice mellow hop flavor.

Bottle. [Courtesy of yespr, thanks buddy] Average egg-white head that mostly lasted. Fair display of lacework. Clear golden colour. Aroma of hops, cardboard, grass, grain, caramel. Light bodied with a soft carbonation and light dry texture. Light bitter and sweet flavour. Light dry and bitter finish.

...similar to an "ice" beer in the US. Nothing really good about it, but it is drinkable, but only when free.

Warm golden with a moderate and dense head. The aroma is weak with notes of flower and malt. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of flower, malt and a light bitterness. The overall impression is a somewhat thin beer, that is very easy to drink, refreshing and uncomplicated.
