Had at a company X-mas party in the bottle...Hadn’t tried in a LONG time...now I remember why...It’s more $$$ than BMC, but tastes the same...the unique bottle seems to be the only thing going for it. Just a regular lager...nothing special

Average beer. Goes down easy, kind of sweet, though ti is highly carbonated. Extra points for still being in a stubby! As long as it is on sale it is still better then the Bud/Coors/Miller garbage here.

A decent light beer. If you prefer a heavier more stout brew then this lager probably isn’t for you. However, if you are searching for a light lager that doesn’t sacrifice flavor for lightness, then I reccomend this brew. Nice flavor and finishes crisp and clean.

Bottle. Pours a light yellow color with a small white head. Aroma of malt and not much else. Has a hint of hops. Not bad but nothing to write home about either.

Bottle at a friend’s place. Pours a light urine yellow. Little to no smell that might or might not be vaguely sweet. Head is acceptable but dissipates as expected. A fairly carbonated brew. Smooth on the taste and goes down easy. However, very little flavor to speak of. Vaguely sweet (Like the smell I still don’t know was/wasn’t there). Slightly malty with notes of adjuncts. Not enjoyable and I’m generally open to the pale lager category.

very light taste, nice and drinkable. It is becoming easier and easier to find in the the US. My buddy who went to Umiami used to talk about ti all the time but it was hard to find in upstate NY now its getting easier

Mostly water. Very very pale, not real aroma to speak of. Yes, it is easy to drink as it hoesn’t taste of anything... faint hint of malt. And there’s a light version of this available, that has to be more water than water itself.
