Looks like bud with a better head. Weak aroma, weak taste, good lacing. I can’t taste anything..east drinking, better than bud but yes, it is weak and borings.

Pours pale gold with a small white head that has decent retention. Areoma is sweet grass, vaguely sweet malt and not much else. Flavor is the same with a little extra graininess to it, it really is very bland and too sweet. I really disliked this beer especially at $10/6 pack.

Very easy drinking taste. pours well. This one is worth tasting, at least to try.

french beer..., enough said. clear golden with no head and lively carbonation. the aroma is of light malt and the flavor is sweet and spicy.

UPDATED: AUG 19, 2005 Yep a golden yellow poured from the can... Light hops with some bitterness, I do agree. Some crisp malt presence to quench the day’s heat. This beer has corn in it besides malt but it’s reasonably good tasting without corn-worty artefacts - I feel it is well made macro suds. One thing is the carbonation is slightly sharp and the aftertaste not so clean, a tinge metallic perhaps. But leagues better than Becks, for sure. I’m surprised. But if I were drinking this in France I’d have a peristent vague uneasy sense I could better occupy my taste buds in said evirons. Could be worse but nothing memorable.

Pours a clear pale gold with small, sparce rising bubbles and a dense, frothy, white head that sticks around for quite some time. It eventually diminishes leaving some solid lace. The aroma is skunked, a real shocker for a bright green bottle from a mix-a-six shelf. ;) Once it "airs out", I get a light grainy presence backed by a touch of faint, grassy hops. Light-bodied and thin with soft, fine carbonation-nice for a pale lager-finishing clean and crisp with just a hint of metal. The flavor is a clean and crisp sweet malt front with a lightly grassy hop backing and far less "metal" than I detect in many widely distributed pale lagers. This one’s not too shabby. I like it enough that if I could find another single that has been better protected from light, I’d try it again.

On Tap.Dark yellow in colour with a small head,aroma is of light malt and lemon, taste is thin,fizzy cold and sweet.

Tap. Just another boring pale lager. Aroma is floral and citrusy, not so bad. Flavour is just sweet and light. Dry in the palate, with a thin body. Yellow colour with a white lasting head.
