COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
First brewed in 1938.
It is a light alcohol drink with not too strong bitterness but rather soft taste; therefore, it's easy to drink it up.

rangerred (201) - Johnson City, Tennessee, USA - FEB 9, 2012
A pour out of a stubby bottle into a pint glass yields a clear straw colored beer with a fizzy one finger head. Smells skunky at first followed by a light grainyness along with some light grassy hops. Taste is a mixture of cereal grain and grassy hops followed by a moderate sweetness as the flavors fade. A light bitterness lingers through the finish. Overall a decent beer although the sweetness is a bit of a turn off for me.

Loved the taste of this one, almost felt like drinking a soda but still not, and loved the frute taste and the taste of pineapple.

(Canned) There’s shitloads of snow everywhere and im drinking Jamican lager for some reason ,i think im finally losing it but regardless this stuff is ok . its very lightly hopped -thus not bitter and making it very swillable ; grainy sweet malt dominance and some honey texture which is cool cause it got some ’real Pilsener ’ like quality . Not bad .

Leve e simples, bem melhor que as nacionais do mesmo estilo, porém o custo-benefício é muito baixo. Toamaria novamente somente se fosse presente.

reebtogi (1528) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - FEB 3, 2012
330ml bottle pours a pale golden color with a small white head that settles to some spotted lacing. Aroma is light malts and hops. Taste is light malty sweet with a mild hop bitterness. Standard macrolager brew.

Good beer. Wish the bottles were bigger. These little grenade bottles are too easy to drink down
