Pours a light yellow color with small fizzy white head. Aromas of light malt, slightly skunky, with some corn.

This beer will give you a headache. It doesn’t smell good. The taste is water with a lot of chemicals. Why is this beer so popular?? They must be great marketeers.

Very watery taste, bit head not so foamy in natural conditions. Smelly, not so attractive at nose, skunky in mouth. No body, and flavour not lasting at end.

Flocci (33) - BELGIUM - APR 29, 2013
Oh, this just makes me go biblical. Let this cup pass from me. Please! Why, oh why is everyone on this planet drinking this smelly, foultasting chemical concoction? It’s been said here numerous times, but this is something that needs confirmation, over and over: this beer is skunked and it is awful. Taste and smell (odor), if this doesn’t throw you off, you need a nose and palate transplant. Nuff said.

messinger91 (12) - Huntington, West Virginia, USA - APR 28, 2013
This beer is a generic lager with watery taste, but the by far most repulsive thing about it is the smell. This beer is the very definition of "skunky", and is so smelly that after I had this beer, several people asked me if i had recently smoked a certain herb. I had not.

   AROMA 6/10   APPEARANCE 2/5   TASTE 5/10   PALATE 2/5   OVERALL 10/20
R2k2 (122) - NETHERLANDS - APR 28, 2013
Just a regular lager. The usual yellow color and a white foamy head. Aroma is bitter and hoplike, but not to present. It tastes a bit bitter, but it won’t last long. Heerlijk, helder, gewoon pils. De standaard gele kleur met een witte kop. Het aroma is bitter hoppig, maar niet prominent aanwezig. De smaak is wel bitter, maar blijft niet lang hangen.

ccex (826) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - APR 26, 2013
12 oz. bottle pours a clear golden with decent white head and lacing. Aroma is skunky with grass, waek grain, and hay. Taste is neutral. Thin body with lively carbonation. This is my choice only when it is a gift or when every other available beer is even worse.

snoworsummer (461) - baltimore, Maryland, USA - APR 25, 2013
Can on the airplane. Pale brown. Tastes like malt and yeast. No other noticeable flavors. Taste lingers. Feels dry. Medium body and high carbonation. Light grain smell.

Braastad (149) - FINLAND - APR 20, 2013
Clear pale golden Aroma is cidery and not strong at all. Taste is a bit better in that it doesnt taste of anything much. Not good OR bad. Maybe a little sweet and carbonated but not much else.
