Pours a pale golden color with a trace of a head, but not much really. Nose of corn and skunk with a touch of bitter. There wasn’t a whole lot of taste. Leaves a kind of sweet taste on the tongue. Like most others said, a better option than the American macros, but still wouldn’t be one to drink too often.

Pours a pale gold with green tint. Smells of skunk (literally), rice malt. Sweet taste however, rich malt. I actually love the taste. Excellent.

Once again the curse of the green bottle! Skunked beer. If you can find some that has been kept out of contact with light it is a fine transition from American macros toward craft brewed beer. Light flavor but nicely hopped. Used to drink this at the local tavern where it was stored properly and it was quite good. Update: Tried it recently and other than the usual skunk aroma, it was very tasty indeed. Richer hop character than I remembered. Good balance, easy drinker.

Not a good beer at all, appearance was weak and the aroma was gnarly. At times i kept forgetting to drink my beer which is sad. I expected more but was disappointed.

Bottle - very light. OK. Clean, not much flavor. Better than most US made lagers, though.

From a beers of the world mix pack, thoughtful xmas gift. Skunked, oh yes, even the bottle that came from the closed case, so it must be light struck from before packaging... fun. Light malt flavor, hops faint, but there. Kinda tastes like skunked breakfast cereal.
