Bottle. Pours clear golden yellow with white detergent-like head. The aroma is kinda grainy with a bit of skunk. The flavor is HAY. Lots and lots of hay. Especially in the finish. Drinking this makes me feel like I’ve been put to pasture.

Allen (2394) - SWITZERLAND - MAR 4, 2008
Bottled 345ml. It pours a light golden beer with a nicely remaining creamy white head. The nose is of pine needles, lime and malt. Slightly sour. The taste is mainly of corn. Hints of lime, spices and plastic. Watery. Artificial finsih with a hint of pine needles. Nice lacing. Distinctive.

DrnkMcDermott (2393) - Downers Grove, Illinois, USA - APR 17, 2005
Bottled. Tried to drink this while next to some idiot with a dog-turd cigar. Found this was a decent beer to cut through that stank. Pale pour with a decent head. Taste is okay cold, seems to suggest something of a cream ale. Feels like some adjuncts are at work, but it does aspire to some fullness. At there’s a decent balance with bitterness, but not enough to make me think "hops." Unexciting, but by no means the worst you’ll find at the bar.

Blah. This is awful, eh? I know truly know what skunky aroma is. I didn’t before. I just associated it with a bad aroma. This beer actually smelled like skunk (my dog’s been sprayed by them). Pour was a decent bubbly light gold with a 2 finger white head. Taste was very watery and very metallic. Tasted like pennies.

No aroma, thick but bubbly head. Harsh mouthfeel. Taste is a bit minty and not pleasurable..

jazz88 (2384) - San Francisco, California, USA - JUN 20, 2003
Bottle. Golden color with a white head. A smooth unoffensive aroma and flavor. Dry and a little malt in the flavor. Not bad for the style. I used to hate this beer, but this wasn't as bad as I remembered.

Meilby (2372) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - DEC 6, 2011
Bottle 350ml
Pours clear golden with a white head. Aroma has notes of malt and grain. Taste is light sweet. Body is light, texture is thin, carbonation is soft.
