Not a bad lager, over hyped about being one of Australia’s best beers.

Not a bad beer but the price to quality ratio is abit askew, not worth the money charged.

Spiesy (2336) - Sydney, Greater London, AUSTRALIA - MAY 3, 2003
Bottle Only. Rustic golden colour, with a full white head. Good bitter aroma, low hop. Refreshing drank cold in the sun, its got solid bitterness and solid flavour, good palate.

dreamboat (186) - Brisbane, AUSTRALIA - NOV 12, 2003
Looks and tastes a lot like the rest of the Australian MegaLagers, but with perhaps a touch more hop flavour and bitterness. Not even close to worth the price that is asking for it, for what is basically a regular aussie beer.

I swear its VB in a different bottle. Well it is a little bit lighter and a little smoother but still pretty average for all its claims to be asutralias premium beer.

Muggus (193) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - OCT 9, 2003
The standard "classy" Aussie beer. Not my favourite, but I enjoy one once in a while. Quite easy, although there is an apparent sweet sharp bitterness to the flavour. Essentially just an extra classy VB.

Nekronos (2655) - Xalapa, MEXICO - APR 30, 2006
Extremely repulsive, I cannot drink these beers anymore, probably some years ago. Now, it makes me hate lagers. The aroma is like honey, perhaps like Holssten, but the taste is like metal.

UPDATED: SEP 7, 2004 Looks like a lager, no particular aroma, but the flavor and palate is great. Maybe from the relatively high alcohol percent. A decent lager when it’s inside
