2.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle say 4.8%. Pours pale golden small white head. Aroma of sweet malts and sugar. Flavor is sweet with a hoppy bitter finish. Thin body, weak, average at best.
1.3 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
Appearance is nothing to write home about; macro amber, very clear, no head. Nose lacks character but some faint hops. Fizzy palate dominated by stale malts, not over bearing by any stretch, but not totally surprising given I couldn’t locate a UBD. Bland at best, and maybe even a touch skunked in hindsight.
1.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 7/20
This offers a mild aroma of yeast and hops. It pours a moderately thick head that settles upon a maize colored solution. This beer is thin and creates a pucker effect by offering a bitter skunky taste.
4.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
This is a light, non-skunky, tasty little beer. I was suprised to find it here in Michigan. Good Stuff.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
yellowish color w/ very thin head. flavorful and alright, not spectacular.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours a golden yellow color. Aromas of grassy hops with some grains/corn. Flavor is crisp, malty with maybe a touch of hops.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
[This bottle was brought back to me from Sri Lanka and the abv was 4.8%.] Bohemian noble hops aroma with faint crisp malt and nothing offensive. Only wispy white mist over a bright gold drink. Nice fresh hops up front in good balance with crisp sweet malt. No skunk, corn, or pissy yellow characteristics, other than the hops variety. Medium body with medium carbonation and a clean finish. This beer is right up there with the good Czech pilsers--I wonder whether the product that you buy in North America is different than what you get in Ceylon. Very nice.
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
Clear golden with a quickly fading white head. Light grain and corn in the aroma with a slight whiff of fresh paint (!). Flavor expectedly is of grain, corn and a touch of lemon. Has a weird metallic finish with a touch of sourness. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Not good. I can’t believe they make that tasty stout.
