2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20long lost bad notes from when had this in Fiji last year.
In a can. Even better.
Yellow straw color. fast fading white head.
Light straw and malt. Some corn sweetness but not much really.
Sweet taste. Lots of corn sweetness with sweet malt.
After a week in Fiji I thought this was the second best beer I had drank all week long. Much better than the Fiji range that was local. Must have been the can

Straw pours, no real head. Little skunky in the nose, light malt there too. Thin across the tongue, but oddly sweet. Not much finish. I remember this being better in years past.
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
My biggest complaint when I had it was consistency. Namely that there wasn’t any. I had bottles that I would have rated in the high threes and a couple I threw out with most in between. I looks and pours nicely, aroma seemed off which is not all that uncommon. As others have said it’s cold wet refreshing but unlikely to win any medals. Hopefully Heineken has dealt with the consistency issues

Cold, wet. with essence of beer but on a hot day beggars can’t be choosers.
1.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
Pours yellow and fizzy. Smells and tastes like a skunky version of Heineken. Some appley splashes on the finish. Nothing going on.

Who new they could brew beer in new guinea? Not great but kind of exotic, light and smooth

Horrible aroma similar to stale crap and sweat. Clear amber colour with poor head and lacing.

Just tried all the SP beers available in Rabaul, PNG. The only beer they sold in this small village. Good on a hot day and if it is your only choice. Try their Nuigini Ice, it is a bit lighter and tastless.
