Koelschtrinker (6544) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 11, 2011
Süßer und würziger Antrunk, die Süße verschwindet zum Mittelteil hin. Dafür tritt, wenn auch nur schwach, der Hopfen in den Vordergrund. Im Nachgeschmack setzt sich dies im Prinzip fort, alles wirkt nur etwas schwächer und etwas wässrig, wogegen auch das nun auftretende Malz nichts machen kann. Test vom 15.4.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,9,9,8,6,9 - 8,60

Clear pale yellow with almost no head. Aroma is sweet, light malty, corn and light hoppy - straw and citrus. Flavor is medium sweet and light bitter. Sweet finish. Light bodied and watery. 310511

12 oz. bottle from some shitty bar in Cincinnati- I think it was called Yesterdays and it’s up in Mt. Adams with all the more pretentious bars. Anyway, the green bottle wasn’t enough to turn me away, as I had never had this particular beer of the north. Pours a pale yellow-gold with a fizzy white head. The aroma is putrid- skunk and more skunk, with some grass and garbage. Flavor of sweet and pale malts, sugar, corn, grass, and straw. Light-bodied, with high carbonation and a crisp, grassy mouthfeel. Not good, disappointing even for what I expected.

Has neither malt or hop characteristics. Typical bmc alcohol delivery unit drainpour. Pours with a slightly brownish tint. Tastes like diluted apple juice. Awful!

adnielsen (3108) - Denver, Colorado, USA - MAY 27, 2011
Bottle @ home. Nothing like rating a new top ten favorite beer then tasting this piece of gerbil feces. Golden yellow, clear appearance with a white head that disappears quickly. Skunky, light pale malty nose. The skunk can be noticed from a few feet away.Skunky, sweet pale malty lager flavor. Bland, crappy lager.

Why waste time money and effort brewing something like this? Come on! What is the point of a lager anyway. Most have no flavor and taste like ass. I think this is the last lager I ever rate. Unless I get one from a far away country.

Bottle states Lager. So, AB of Canada, eh? Bright yellow. What a skunky aroma this thing has! Straw up close, Waft of skunk from a distance. Very sweet. Lingering lager aftertaste. This is a beer that causes the non-beergeek to HATE beer...
