Light amber colour. Somewhat soapy aroma with a little grassy, perfumey hop. Moderate body. Sweet and slightly peachy, perfumey. Soft, sweet finish. Good example of style.

Its ok, but still it was below average beer, a bit sweetish, and not much to it.

Bottle… Hazy, lightly golden lager with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Skunky nose with restrained notes of mash and toffee. Sweet, earthy flavor with a suggestion of honey and mild, herbal bitterness. Medium-bodied with a skim-milk mouthfeel and moderate carbonation. Bland finish.

Dear lord I can smell the putrid bile from about three feet away... absolutely horrible smelling beer, this is... Composed of some sort of chemicals laced with urine and paint-thinner... this stuff smells awful. Texture is fizzy and rough, initialy somewhat sweet, then turning horribly sour and spoiled on the back of the tongue. A fizzy, tangy mistake of a beer.

Bottle, Australian-brewed version. Head is initially small, fizzy, white, fully diminishing. Body is medium yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (grain), trace hops (herbs), with a note of plastic. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter, husky, unclean. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Foul smelling and tasting stuff, this. Undrinkable.
