Pours a light golden yellow color. Aromas of straw/grains. Not much else. No body, watery. My (Miller Lite Loving) friends I was having lunch with loved it.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 mjg74 (2106) - La Mesa, California, USA - OCT 23, 2008
Bottle from World Market. Clear golden in color. Aroma is an odd burnt woodiness. Grainy flavors with a hint of malt and skunk. Another boring lager.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 porterhouse (1479) - Alna, Maine, USA - OCT 16, 2008
(Bottle from Marcorelle’s) Pours clear gold/yellow with three fingers of white head. Aroma is honeyish with perhaps some caramel overtones. Mouthfeel OK but a bit pebbly/prickly. Flavor starts out rather full for the style with some honeyish maltiness but then kind of just fades off into a rather weakly malty pale lager that at least avoids the corn/rice and/or paper/cardboard taste of many of the style.

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of fonefan. Brewed in the EU. Slightly hazy pale golden with a white head. Very buttery aroma. Medium body with sweetish malt with a light flowery whiff. No bitterness. Gee this is poor. 041008

0.6 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20 DrDavid (957) - Johnson, Vermont, USA - OCT 3, 2008
(Bottle). Aroma of swamp water. Pale yellow color, little head. Taste is thoroughly unpleasant, more dishwater than anything else. Drain pour.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 junon (259) - Honolulu, Hawaii, USA - OCT 2, 2008
Citrus and grassy aroma. Initially very crispy mouth feel that mildly lingers. Nice. This is the perfect example of a Lager. It is quality. One question I have is, Why? I mean its a pale lager and tastes for the most part just like all the others. Its something I’d expect a first time home brewer would try to do. This a quality beer made from quality methods and ingredients. However there is absolutely no twist. Its good though.
