Good on a hot day. Very refreshing. Theres plenty of better alternatives though. Regardless of where you live. Tusker is a little better I think.

330ml bottle from Total Wine in Jacksonville. Just noticed that the knuckleheads have this beer placed with the Australian beers. Fools. Pours a pale gold color with virtually no head. Aroma is a touch of malt, but mostly corn. Taste is mostly corn and what tastes like soap suds for the aftertaste. Huh? Strange.

Grass, marzipan, rice, rubber. Golden, wet and headless. Tastes like watered down Special Brew. A stinker.

This beer really hits the spot, when you are in need of a cold one! I’ve been drinking it for the past 15 years. I have however noticed a difference in the taste, since SAB Miller took over. Still damn good beer though!

Can. Pale golden body with a white head. A little malt flavor in the aroma and actually traces of hops. Flavor is just another refreshing, thin watery lager with just almost enough malt and hop to finish the bottle/can. It’s OK, but noting special.

Compares favorably with Kingfisher, although not quite as available. If you like at least a bit of a beer taste, seek this out over Haywood.
