Been very disappointed by this stuff in the bottle, but on Draft, it’s something else. It could’ve been the bartenderesses, or maybe the icu mugs, but they used to serve this at the Outback steakhouse, and we would get bombed on them. Ten elven a night, who knows? Crisp, light, makes you pee! I have nothing else to substantiate it’s being a great beer, but I always had a great time drinking it, until the check came. &$@!$4.50 a pint! Dammit!

jbrus (4992) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - MAY 5, 2003
Mine was brewed in England and 4.0% ABV. The aroma is malty. Golden color, white head, fair lace. Maltsweet, light, no texture. Short malty finish.

rauchbier (3394) - Isle Of Beer, Lincolnshire, ENGLAND - MAY 17, 2003
Can - UK version 4%. Gold, initially good white head but soon falls apart, moderate condition. Malt and grain in the nose fleetingly, quite full bodied and chewy in the mouth but a little on the sweet side and lingers just a little too long. Best forgotten.

Not a very popular beer, and I can see why. Unremarkable is an understatement.

mullet (849) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - DEC 17, 2004
Mullet’s late night-Lane Cove-fire sale-clear backpack space for the plane-tasting, with sushi: Very grassy aroma, perhaps even some hop!! Diacetyl, double cream and fresh caramel. Tiny bit of malt flavour, orange cordial with a light metallic bitterness. Surprising creamy mouthfeel. Good swill! And I’d never even heard of it before!

eczematic (1304) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - JUL 9, 2003
dry and flavourless at first, maybe slightly grainy, then you get hit with simultaneous bitterness and nasty australian lager chemicals. at least it's got some bitterness.

gam (2654) - brisbane, AUSTRALIA - MAR 3, 2008
Pours typical gold colour of xxxx brew good carbonation fair head too.Aroma slightly weaker on hops and more thin grain aroma.Flavour is thin and that low carbohydrate flavour,of diet drinks crisp it,s not dry it is and an annoying taste.
