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

Pours pale straw, little to no head. Amazing lack of any flavor or aroma. Would rather drink water.

Bouteille de 330 ml achetée chez ANBL (Dieppe, N-B). Arôme: Odeur de maïs avec une pointe d’houblon. Apparence: La couleur est blonde avec une faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de céréales avec une pointe d’houblon. Courte durée de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps et la texture sont mince. Faible effervescence en bouche. Arrière goût légèrement fruité. (Rating #1637)

Hooray beer My butt Pale gold, thin white head. Skunky, moderately hopped aroma, somewhat stale in character. Flavor is a somewhat spicy, dry, hoppy lager taste. Not as refreshing as some comparable lagers, but more interesting. This flavor has its own unique character in its mellow, spicy sweetness, and I like it. Thin and watery, as expected, and the flavor becomes less pleasant farther into the glass, but it’s a nice beer nonetheless

bottle. hooray beer. pours pale golden with a rapidly diminishing head. i detect some fruity aroma and flavor, possibly banana, though it mainly tastes like a sweetened domestic american lager.

Clear golden yellow with medium white head. Almost no aroma. Sweet corn/malt flavor and very little else. Besides the fact that they come in stubby bottles, not exciting about this beer.

Clear golden yellow with lots of carbonation. Very little aroma. Slight taste of corn and malt and just a hint of sweetness. A decent change-of-pace beer on a hot day (when you’re tired of macros or Corona), but not an everyday beer.

So its just another comercial larger - BUT this was the import Jamaican version (from Notting Hill Gate tesco’s in case yr desperate for some) that comes in those cool stubby bottles, so you can pretend your backa yard an ting. Or something. Rubbish beer tho.
