Ingredients: Water; Barley malt; Hops, Yeast.
We’ve been brewing Lion Lager in Sri Lanka since 1881. Lion Lager is made from the very best ingredients - it’s malty, refreshing, and natural tasting. This is a beer of character for people of character.

ABV ranges from 4.1% to 4.8%

Apple cider vinegar is the aroma. See through yellow with no head. THe palate is medium and supports a light malt flavor with some apple hints. Clean, dry finish.

Maria (7805) - Thisted, DENMARK - JAN 4, 2007
Golden with a moderate head. The aroma is slightly malty and a bit sour. The flavour also is a bit malty and there is no bitterness to speak of. This is a very thin beer.

MrManning (1942) - London, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 3, 2007
Lion lager has been on my radar for some time now, so I am happy that I will finally get to try it. Pours deeper yellow to amber, with a white fizy head, with no life. Vegetal aromas punch you in the groin. Freshly cut grass, an ounce of corn, eye of newt. You get the picture. Flavours are malt forward, but with no redeeming hop character, this one fails to hit the mark. Lots of creamed corn, and hay notes. Finishes without notice. C’mon guys, you brew a world class stout, and a corn class lager.

Papsoe (21782) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JAN 2, 2007
(Bottle 33 cl) A clear, golden beer with a small, white head. The aroma is clean malt with a touch of metal. Medium body with some malt and brewing cereal and some fairly decent hops for balance. A drinkable lager, but nothing much more. 020107

faroeviking (8598) - Kongens Lyngby, FÖROYAR, FAROE ISLANDS - JAN 1, 2007
Bottle. Golden colour, small head. Aroma is malty. Flavour is light and bland with some maltiness, hoppiness and sweetness.

GregClow (2645) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 30, 2006
Bottle (Sinha gift-pack) from LCBO. Nice looking golden-orange with a good sized white head that disappears almost instantly. Aroma of sweet, grainy malt, with a hint of wet cardboard. Thin body. Sweet flavour, lots of malt, a hint of honey, vague hops in the finish. Pretty much what I expected, I guess.

hammerbeck (101) - Kentucky, USA - DEC 30, 2006
Straw colored with minimal head, this beer barely exists. It has little aroma, negligible taste and is completely inoffensive in every way. Quite nearly water.

spector (906) - Lancaster, Ohio, USA - DEC 30, 2006
Get some apple in the aroma on this one.Pours a hazy gold with alight white head.Get some malt in the flavor.Not much going on inthis one but has a fairly smooth finish.
