12 oz bottle-pours a white head and gold color. Aroma is light sweet grain with grassy hops. Taste follows. Light body. OK carbonation.

Standard gold lager appearance and bland sugary/malt aroma. Taste is pretty watered down and neutral, with low hop bitterness, a touch of straw and grain. Slight bitter swell on the finish. Standard character inspires indifference.

Pale golden pour, with a thin bubbly head. Weak lacing. Not very appealing. Grainy grassy scent. Bitter weed tasting. Like when you grab a bunch of grass and decide to chew on it. Not good at all. Remind me to pack some beer if I go to Africa

Light sweet aroma with grassy hop notes. Brilliantly clear golden body is topped by a decent white head that recedes slowly to a lasting cover and leaves some patchy lacing on the glass. Flavour is simple and sweet with light finishing bitterness. Mild cabbagey DMS especially in the aftertaste that becomes more prominent as it warms. Light body with watery texture and somewhat low carbonation. Pretty inoffensive lawnmower beer. Tulip glass. Fridge temperature. Can (LCBO, Dec-06).

Bottle. Clear golden, small white head. Bready malt aroma with some fudge notes and grassy hops. Light bodied, a bit watery. Moderately bitter, short finish. OK for a pale lager.
