Nice beautiful head. Lots of armoa with a hit of smokeyness to it. I taste a little bitterness to it too. Beautiful bright golden color look to it. Because of the smokey smell, it definately will go well with tandoori foods. Pretty good beer to drink for any occassions.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 RedEft (131) - Wichita, Kansas, USA - JAN 16, 2005
Decent gold color with barely any head. The aroma is an intriguing mix of corn and...orange peels maybe? Wow, quite a bold, smoky taste. Very unexpected. Very smooth, weakly carbonated....seems to be flat halfway through the mug. Not at all bad, I’d drink it again.

If you have ever smelt fresh ,right outta the hive honey combs, then this will take you back...strong honey odor and taste, also has very pleasing bitterness, nice fluff head some lacing, this is as sweet + crisp as a beer like this gets, its like wow!

Lots of carbonation. Medium diminishing head. Light golden color with some particulate floating around. Metallic hoppy finish. It might have been a little stale due to the fact the bottle was pretty dusty at the store I bought it at.

Aurelius is right to say this has sort of a peaty flavor. Whatever it is, peaty or not, this beer has an odd flavor. One thing’s for sure - this brew has significant flavor and isn’t dry or crisp, but rather is mild, undercarbonated and perhaps a touch sweet. A better than average lager from overseas.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Slick (1971) - Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA - MAR 3, 2003
light malt medium hop aroma color was a decent golden,highly carbonated at first but it boiled off in a hurry leaving the brew almost flat.The taste is slightly hoppy with a medicinal side to it,not much there at all.leaves the same hoppy medicinal aftertaste in the mouth.this garbage is worth trying only once for me could probably be better with someone who has a palate for this kind brew or atleast from this country.not for me anyway.

Bottle from World Market. Golden color upon pouring. Weird toasty aroma. Almost smells like a smoked. Very odd flavor at first. Like a smoked plastic beer. Actually it’s not really that bad.

Has an olive oil like aroma to it. Light golden appearance with a thin, quickly dissipating white head. A bit cloudy as well. The flavor has a bit of a smoked essence to it. Initally inviting it ends up being cloying by the end of the 650 ml bottle. Also detect some honey sweetness in there as well. Sort of reminds me of sweet barbecue sauce. Creamy mouthfeel. Would probably make a good compliement to a Tandori platter in an Indian restaurant - the smokiness would compliment the food well. Have to give it points for character though - not your everyday subcontinent lager.
