From plastic bottle at argo0’s xmas party, thanks argo0! It is my opinion that this beer was very past its prime, if it had a prime to begin with. Kind of peach colored, little carbonations, lots of things floating around. Aroma is kind of fetid, sour, medicinal, syrup. Flavor is watery crap--sour, some kind of fruitish sourness, and just flat out bad. I don’t think the tape across the top of the bottle helped to keep this beer fresh as it traveled from South Africa to DC. Maybe all of the beer in the bottle was confiscated at customs and replaced with, well I’m not really sure.

1L Plastic bottle, thanks argo0. Sort of foul aroma, like it’s possibly infected with a hint of odd fruitiness - nothing fresh or herbal smelling. Cloudy, particle-y dirty golden with no head. Somewhat sour-ish, woody, light wood, plenty of bitterness though. Not fresh, herbal, or grassy.. Watery texture with light carbonation. Doesn’t resemble a pils at all.

(1L plastic bottle) Minimal white head atop lightly hazed light orange/pink. Aroma is medium sweet, starfruit, cantalope, orange. Taste is medium sweet, grassy, melon, some lemon sourness. Low carbonation, light body. Pilsener?

1L plastic bottle, courtesy of argo0. Thanks, Aaron! Sort of. Looks like dandruff mixed with watered-down peach juice. Some peachy / apricot notes and water in the aroma; a bit sweet. Slightly chalky and odd peachiness in a light mouthfeel: kind of gross and watery; not much here. Light, sugary and dry fruit character in the finish.

At A&K holiday tasting, "thanks" Aaron I guess, in a plastic 1 liter bottle: Looks like juice and has a fizzy head and little lace, ugly. The aroma has notes of band-aid and phenolic overtones, some apple and mango, grassy vapours. The taste is not much better with twangy fruit and biscuity malt but plenty of medical flavors and even a tad sour and salty. Well it is a beer from South Africa...pass.
