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

Not much to commend here. Drank from bottle with seafood. Just not much taste, like water with some grain thrown in??

Brewed under license by Moosehead Brewery in Canada
I tried this beer on April 27, 2010 after purchasnig from one of my local LCBO outlets in Milton, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a translucent medium gold colour with a very thin white head that lasted for a few minutes. The aroma was grainy malt and weak hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was more grainy malt with a hint of hops.

Bottle. Poured golden with a white head. Aroma of lemon, sweet floral, and corn. The flavor found corn and light lemon. Light body, nothing special yet refreshing on a warm south Florida day.

Interesting bottle- Light pour with a weak aroma of spice and corn. Aftertaste is like every other cheap domestic beer. Nothing too special about this Jamaican brew.

Hermod (1476) - Vantaa, FINLAND - APR 18, 2010
33cl bottle, from local store. Poured light golden color with a thin white head that quickly disappeared. Weak aroma of corn. Flavor is sweet malt, bit hoppy, some rice also noticeable. Quite OK, refreshing.

Not bad, Aroma and Taste is a little fruity, with the classic light lager taste you can find in cheaper beers. However, i have to admit, you feel a little cooler drinking one of these than a Bud or a Corona :)

Bomber. Appearance is pale golden with a thin layer of fizzy white head. Aroma is corn and barley malt with a slight metallic fragrance. Taste begins with a strong grainy malt flavor followed by some slight lemon citrus and bitterness. Mouthfeel is slightly watery and characterized by heavy carbonation and graininess. Finish is dry and crisp. Respectable Pale Lager that pairs well with spicy food.

12oz bottle. Found it in the back of my fridge from a party a few months ago. Remember it tasting EXACTLY like cardboard. Just a normal lager. Bready malts on the nose. Zero flavor with soda-like carbonation. A really good cold one to wash down a cheeseburger off the grill with.
