cluny6 (65), Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England Mar 15, 2008 I’m not even going to describe how bad it tastes. Some things are just undescribable, just look at the numbers... If you drink to get drunk, this beer can be consider drinkeable. If you consider beer feast to your senses, please do not desecrate yourself with this blasphemy. I would give it a 0.0 if the website would allowe me to.
ps. It tastes like the add metal shavings to the brew
gary07734 (145), Tyne & Wear, England Sep 7, 2008 Pours a fake orange colour with a decent enough white head. Taste is metallic, bitter, not particulary good. Pretty poor for a lager. wheresthepath (227), Buckinghamshire, England Sep 3, 2008 [on tap at Chronicles, Reading] A bit of history this - Fosters was the first beer I ever bought in a pub, at the tender age of 15. I drank this for about a year, before swiftly moving through cider and onto bitter and real ale. Now, 18 years later I was forced into trying it again through being in a pub with no other beers that I hadn’t already rated. It pours a pale yet dirty gold, with a moderate lasting head. The smell is vaguely stale, even though from the taste it clearly wasn’t. Tastes of corn and cardboard, with slight hints of citrus, malt and some wheat dust. But these really are hints - the overall impression is of fizzy water. It is one of the sweeter lagers - which explains how I was able to get into it easily as a teenager. And as a definite plus, there’s none of the metal in the aftertaste which characterises so many keg beers. Overall, it’s very bland, but easy to drink, and there’s nothing actually unpleasant about it to make you ditch it - but then there’s nothing to make you buy another pint either! There are far worse pale lagers out there... futre7 (10), Taipei, Taiwan Aug 11, 2008 Generic rubbish served to ignorant Brits , I went to Australia after hearing all the urban legends about how Oz fosters is bad, no it isnt its genuinly strong and tasty , this on the other hand reminds me of the heineken cold filtered we used to get in england , why do they give us this rubbish and why is it so popular??, on a summers days its palatable , but as a lager the only thing about it thats rateable is the colour, poor lager, very average. iammarc (177), Inverness, Scotland Jul 28, 2008 Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Really bad. More bads than Michael Jackson’s hit song, and that’s not MJ the late Beer Legend. shoestring (165), larkhall, Scotland Jun 17, 2008 For me, it’s okay for a bland lager session. nothing outstanding but standard pub fare.
