Oh god oh god oh god. I can’t escape the feeling this is what a mass-producing light-lager factory does with the left-over bilge swill. Freeze it, harvest the bare-naked alcohol remnants, cook off the bacteria then bottle it as FLAME! Shockingly bad stuff.

Bottled. A dark golden beer with a thick lazing white head. The aroma has notes of grain - nothing wrong just boring. The flavor is sweet with notes of metal, malt, and some caramel, leading to a bitter and metallic finish.

Bouteille, wow le texte est plus intéressant que le produit. Bière désaltérante avec une touche de houblon. Cette bière a déjà été brassée par la Black Dog Brewery à Auckland.

Bottle 330ml. clear glass.
Clear medium yellow orange color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, light fruity and honey. Flavor is moderate honey sweet and light bitter with a average to long duration, cardboard. Body is medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft. [20100102]

33 cL bottle, courtesy of Papsoe. Pours clear and golden orange with a fully gone white head. Light grassy to cornish aroma. Mild sweet cornish and malt flavoured. Light grassy bitterness. Medium dry finish.

Pours a deep golden with a moderate white head. Quite a lot of skunky euro-hop in the nose. Sweet malt cereal with skunky hop accents and a paperboard dry finish. Not nearly as bad as I anticipated, judging from the cheesy sales pitch on the label and the clear bottle. Still, average at best, elevated slightly by the splash of euro-hop goodness.

UPDATED: JAN 25, 2009 Malty and strong, this one is bearable, and makes you happy. Great when the local supermarket orders way too much and drops the price nice and low. A good choice for any student on a budget. Popular among the kiddies, also. Tastes like horse piss when warm.

Bottle 33cl. Clear golden body with fast offwhite head. Not too pleasant sour aroma with a little malt. Flavour with a little sweet malt. A little fizzy.
