2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
UPDATED: MAY 28, 2008 This is decent, has an unusual and interesting, persistent flavour, but is only ok overall. It is deep gold with a medium, dense white head decreasing to a small lasting top and it leaves a little weak lacing. The aroma is grain, flowers, dust, bananas, and a hint of bubblegum. It seems sweet. The taste is very light with an apple-juice quality, tanginess, a lively palate and tingly feel. It’s crisp and pleasant but ultimately a bit bland, with a feel & taste of flat nonalcoholic apple cider mixed with club soda. In some ways it’s similar to Grain Belt, but more bland and not as full.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle at Brazzazz, Chicago. Maybe it was the meat intoxication speaking. Maybe it was the snowfall that started early that morning and didn’t let up until nightfall. Whatever it was, I was impressed with this beer. Poured a beautiful deep yellow, albeit lifeless. Aroma was not what I expected; it was very tropical, with hints of banana and grassy carrot. Flavor was tingly sweety corn and grain. Buttery mouthfeel that was another unusual component. Not bad; very refreshing.
2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle. Rather odd aroma. Maybe it’s just grassy hop with no malt. Pale golden color with a white head that did a bit of lacing while flattening. Thin in body with mild carbonation. The flavor is pale malt with grass and light fruit. Finishes decently dry. Better than American macros.
0.9 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 2/20
Bottle as part of a Christmas gift Wolrd beer case. Slightly better than Coors Light...which is to say, well not much really.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle, 330ml. A straw colour with a small head. Aroma is grassy hops. Taste is slightly hoppy, a little citrus and a touch of grain. Moderate carbonation. A somewhat unpleasant citric finish. A typical lager.
