1.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
Terrible rye, vegetable, juice in the bottom of the trash nose. Rotting garbage taste. Like paper mache. This is not good.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Pale yellow with a light frothy white head that left slight lacing.
Aroma was thin and grainy with a light sweetness.
Flavour was also a bit thin for me. Clean pale lager flavour, with a dry almost tart bitterness in the finish.
Fairly unremarkable in my opinion.

1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
skunked, clear light golden, decent white head. aroma is adjunct all the way(and i dont even know whether or not it is), flavor is compromised, skunky, slightly buttery..hops barely perceptible.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
fizzy yellow, no head. mild grassy hop and hair aroma. flavour isa the same, almost hoppy, but the water gets in thwe way. average euro-crap.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
500ml can..no date code
Hard pour puts a crystal clear gold lager in the glass with a instantly disappearing cap and no lacing ( uh-oh is see adjucts)
Aroma...like wet paste board soaked in weak corn syrup ( uh-oh is smell dextrin syrups)
Taste: fizzy, bland, watery, wealk malt presence, over filtered with the prominenece of stale over-boiled cheap hop pellets..finish is dry, fast and there is a malt/corn extract cardboard after taste (uh-oh I taste malt extracts and dextrin syrup suppliments)
Now I know why I waited years to buy just one to sample because buying six would leave 5 to go bad waiting for me to revist this bland over-processed concoction....in the vein of domestic extract-brewed buck a beer swill, but priced like a premium import...pass it up.
3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: OCT 13, 2010 Great clean taste, very smooth. Highly recommend. This beer is wonderful and soooo easy to drink.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Incredibly pale light clear yellowy gold, creamy white head that doesn’t stick. Lightly hoppy aroma with slick-sweet malts, maybe a prickle of sharp chemical smell. Taste is round and sweet with notes of apple, generic honey and lemon. Pluses high drinkability an non-offensive, minuses it’s kind of fake and has a slightly parching chemical feel, and I fear a Boris preservative-induced hang-over would be most wretched.

Had this one bottled. Pretty good, it’s got a slightly sour taste but the nose is flowery and finishes clean.
