jrallen34 (123), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jul 3, 2009 I hate this beer. To me its bitter and taste like piss. It has no strong aroma and weak head. Grossecaisse (108), France Jun 30, 2009 a very light beer. Not strong, very clear, good to eat with. i thought americans drink that. Nik925 (300), California, USA Jun 28, 2009 Aroma and aftertaste are pretty good, taste not much of anything. So before and after you drink, it is a decent beer. For a pale lager, its got some flavor. wildbillvms (36), , Illinois, USA Jun 23, 2009 It’s not that bad , I bought a 24 oz. bottle...
I tried this years ago and couldn’t remember it , so this is a refresher...
It has a distinctive taste , but not sharp...
It’s a good taste, no bad aftertaste...
I’d compare it to Strohs back in 1979 - 80
it must be brewed in copper kettles? FuzzyBrain (25), Surrey, England Jun 23, 2009 A terrible lager indeed. Some lagers are just bad but this is plain awful. Avoid my friends. TastemasterWNY (8), New York, USA does not count Jun 18, 2009 During the Fall and Winter I tend to enjoy heavier and darker beers. I usually go with Red Stripe in late Winter to ease my taste buds into the spring, summer and Mexican beers. Vertical Bacon Strips (874), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Jun 14, 2009 Pours out a large rice-crispy sounding rocky white cap that vanishes fast. Standard gold beer with little to no effervesance within a minuite or so and has zero retension. Aroma is sweet with some corn flakes and a touch of citrus. Taste is sweet with more hops than I remembered. Almost chewy. Decent malts and grainy too. Also some buttery something can be found. Medium bodied and quite smooth with a nice ammount of carbonation and a slight grain aftertaste with underlying tasty bitterness. A great slamming beer - very easy to enjoy, 100% non-offending, but usually overpriced. A consistantly solid lager. Pretty much better than anything mass produced in North America. Cirrhosis (610), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Jun 8, 2009 This beer looks great even before I pour it because nothing can look bad when it comes in a stubby. Pours crystal clear gold with a two inch fluffy white head the slowly disappears to nothing, don’t know what it is but this beer looks very nice to me. Mild malty aroma, touches of banana and sour metallic’s can be detected, smells fairly descent for a third world import lager that is to say there is zero trace of skunk. The brew taste very malty with a slight bitter edge to it, the seems to be a staleness in the flavor causing a dusty like taste. This reminds me a lot of euro trash imported lagers but this is more mild and crisp making it way more drinkable. I don’t know why but the after taste is banana, what doesn’t seem correct but that’s all it seems to be. Good beer, way better than most import lagers just remember to drink cold straight out of the fridge because when warm it becomes way more stale tasting. This scores seem way to high to me, but i guess it is what it is.
