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

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.

Very light golden color, lots of carbonation and not much aroma. This beer has a surprisingly refreshing flavor for not having any standout qualities.

Smell is mildly hoppy. Taste is the same, albeit faint on the hops. Expensive as hell and not worth the price, but if your into trying new beers its not terrible.

Very surprised to see such a light pale color on the pour, guess I previously drank from the bottle, has a good inch of foamy white head, has that very distinct sweet lager smell, crystal clear beverage, awful flavor, a couple sips then swigs diminished the head. I’m feeling a drain pour here
