Bottle from Root Cellar. Poured clear yellow color with a small frothy white head that diminished slowly with minimal lacing. Moderate sweet grainy aroma. Light to medium body with a thin texture and soft carbonation. Light sweet flavor with soft sweet finish of short duration. Ice cold summer brew.

12 oz bottle into shaker. Very average pale lager with only a minimal trace of any real flavor (some slight resinous hops) behind the watery pale malt. Not bad – not offensive – not good.

lots of grass in the nose... has anice simple flavour format ... is refreshing in the simplest of terms ans has a nice bitterness level, decent ... not a bad brew but still completely run of the mill, but if you in india and this is all you got, then it might turn the key...hummingbird?

I wasn’t expecting too much out of this one....being from India and all (no offense). Weak and watery, but it is still better than almost all of the Canadian and American macro-brewed lagers I have had.

Drank in an Indian restaurant. No surprise there, wouldn’t have thought many people go looking for this in shops. Completely unremarkable. In fact, quite remarkable in it’s bland and watery taste. Probably aimed at drunken Englishmen in curry houses who don’t care what they drink.

Standard pale lager look. Aroma is not unpleasant. Grainy with a sweet finish. Really not all that bad. Would prefer this to most American lagers.
