Huge fuckin’ can courtesy of MrManning. Clear urine yellow with a fluffy white head that disappears so fast that I almost missed it. Aroma of cooked veggies and compost - brutal. Thin mouthfeel. Flavour - oh god, do I really have to describe it? I suppose there’s something resembling malt in there, maybe even the faint hint of hops, but mostly it’s cooked vegetables and wet cardboard and icing sugar and alcohol. Absolute trash. The rest of y’all have been waaaay too generous with your scores...

Bottle at the no Greg tasting, courtesy of Mr Manning, shared with Hogtown Harry, Blankboy, Jerc, and Mabel. Light yellow. Really really light. Aroma features nothing - maybe cheap champagne. Soft mouthfeel, but sink cleaner taste - awful. Truly an awful off putting taste. Why?

Can (710ml) shared with HogTownHarry, tupalev, jerc & mabel -- courtesy of tupalev & MrManning. Pours a pale straw-yellow with a small diminishing white head. Aroma and flavour of alcohol, sugar, stale grain, corn and vegetables. Unpleasant finish. Watery body. Simply awful.

2008-04-10. Pale yellow, good sized white head fades fast. (2+) Generic macro graininess is very lightly sweet, mild, muted. Odd flavour, very light bitterness, weird fruit notes are crazy brief and disappear. Average to thin palate. Can courtesy of Tupalev/MrManning<P>"We totally need to do a Labatt 6.1% vertical!!!!"

Can (about 4000ml). No ClowGr’s tasting, shared with blankboy, jerc, mabel and tupalev, bottle brought by tupalev (via MrManning). Bright pale yellow, fast-diminishing toxic-looking head. Smells like apple cores, corn and wet newsprint. Nasty, nasty (sorry Len) taste - fusel, wet paper, and (thanks to Jeff) sink cleaner - Ajax (non-lemon) to be exact. Sharp, watyery, weeds steeped in expired vodka cooler - ugh. Len, Len, Len ......
