Not sure how this gets such a good score from me, but I drank it from the bottle @ my Tiki bar. So its a nice light refreshing summer beer with what I think is milder than regular Corona so it actually tastes better!

Appearance - Very pale yellow. Pours with some carbonation (about a finger). Can see right through a full glass of this beer. Smell - None really to speak of. Smells faintly of some hops, but that is all. Taste - Largely tasteless with a bitter bite at the end indicative of some hop content in the beer. Some faint rice or grain notes. Preferable taste over Budweiser or Bud Light, but trumps not many other beers. Leaves the mouth and enters the throat dry (hops). Mouthfeel - Watery. No body to speak of. Some carbonation note while in the mouth. Overall - Not a very good beer. If you are drinking to get intoxicated cheaply and do not want to totally hate the experience, probably a good beer. Would prefer Yuengling for the latter task, but I might be biased being from Tampa and all (Yuengling distillery in Tampa).

Almost a lager flavored water. At least it is not slinky in its taste. Light yellow color.

Bottle. Nothing to note taste or smell wise besides a little skunk and some sweetness which is why if ever one of these are handed to me I immediately stuff a lime in it. A tad worse than the full version. Still it reminds me of the beach and summertime which is not a bad thing.

Can at Ungstrup, huge thanks to yespr for bringing this :-) Clear yellow coloured with a small white head. Sweet aroma of malts and corn. Sweet flavour of corn. Very watery.

Pours a pale golden yellow color with a one finger white foam head that quickly fizzles away into a lasting ring. Not much in the way of lacing. Not the best looking beer but I’ve had plenty of "craft" beers that look mucher paler/worse. The aroma is pretty bad but the lighter version of this beer kind of waters things down making them less offensive. Faint stale faded hops with lots of grain and corn. Not very pleasant. Light bodied but again, not as pale or light as the reviews make it out to be. The flavornis pretty bad with faint hop bitterness followed by an odd metallic flavor along with hints of grainy adjuncts. Lots of corn flavor. I hate putting fruit in beer but adding a lime actually improves this beer giving it a sweet citrus flavor. That bein said you shouldn’t have to add fruit to a beer to improve it’s taste. Pretty bad but not entirely offensive and easy to drink in hot weather. The scores are really terrible for this beer but I’m not sure they’re entirely warranted.

Can 50cl at Ungstrups - thanks. Clear yellow - white head. Corn. White sugar. Alcho Reduced. CO2. What a "beer".

clear yellow, smooth white head. malty and slightly citrussy aroma. flavor is watery, malty, flowery bittereess, low on flavor.

Bottle at Ungstrup’s - Thanks. Pours a clear quite pale yellow with a tiny white head. Sweet with malty hints. Light bodied. Medium carbonation. Thinnish. Watery.

Can. A light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of grain and metal. The flavor is sweet with notes of metal, leading to a dry metallic finish. Huge thanks to my friend yespr for bringing this home to me.
