Ponúkané môj sused, to pivo chutí trochu malty a mierne chmeľové pivo je nápoj pre intenzívne teplo. Pivo s priemyselnú výrobu obilia, výťažky z chmeľu a vôní skunk.

Cute short bottle. Smells of skunk. Taste is of pale malts with some hops. Hmmmmmmm

Citrus infused beer with a decent smell. Head is a light froth. Beer overall is ok good after a hard days work.

Bleh...nothing special, nothing warranting an import premium. Seems like the only thing separating this from Am-mac-stands is a little skunky and unnecessary malt, but, is a bit more pleasantly hoppy. Drinkable, but just not worth the effort.

On tap
This beer is hardly worth the bottle that holds it. Even when on vacation in Jamaica on the hot beach in the sun it was not refreshing. Bland, boring, and plain this beer just barely masks the flaws that lurk beneath. The only reason for it not scoring any lower is that it has no big problems. However it also has no character either. Don’t be fooled by any marketing you see - this is your standard macro swill.

Aroma / Appearance - Bubbly like a tan cola chased with water the body of this has the same appearance as rinse water. Plain vanilla and boring there is no appeal at all. The nose is like a blast of sweet iced tea coupled with a scoop of Splenda that fades within seconds.

Flavor / Palate - The fluid mouthfeel tastes and feels like a mass produced cream soda with a bit more carbonation. There are actually hops but you wouldn’t know for long because they quickly fall away like the divers off the cliffs. This was mildly better than my low expectations but still overall a terrible product. There are so many better things you can spend your money on even at this low price point that you shouldn’t even bother.

A very faint aroma with a touch of sweetness, and no noticeable hops. Pours a clear pale yellow, with just a dusting of head. Light taste, just a kiss of sweetness, no hop bitterness noticeable at all. It’s drinkable, but it’s not something I’m going to get unless it’s a last resort.

Luktar väldigt fruktig. Lite besk och bitter i smaken med en besk eftersmak. Smakar lite, inte alls nått speciellt.

Es una cerveza playera, no tiene cuerpo ni sabor ni aroma es como agua para refrescarte. San Antonio, TX Hemisfer Tower
