Bottled - Chris_O Fest March 07. A light yellow coloured beer which smells thin sweet and uninviting. The taste is sweet, corny and adjuncty. A bit nasty.

33cl Bottle - Got this here in Olympia and I was pleasnatly surprised this did not stink nor have a bad color. It was pretty good. Nice flavor and a decent head. Not bad and I think it made the trip very well. Good Job. This was as good as a good Bud.

Bottle at the Brickskeller in DC. For what the bottle cost, I figured it would be at least a bit better than some of the other beers I tried. Didn’t like the aroma, and the first taste was like a kick in the mouth, it got better later on, but I don’t think I’ll be returning to this beverage soon.

Bottle. Pale gold with decent head. Detecting hints of adjunct in the nose. Not much hops, some maltiness. Medium to thin palate. Not outright bad, just very bland. Given choice at Ethiopan restaurant :-)

Bottled: Golden coloured. Clear. Small white head. Vague sweet aroma with some light grassy notes. Flavour is quite citric and dry. Has some grainy notes. Thin body. Is light fruity in the end without any notes of bitterness.

(Bottle) Pours pilsener golden with a white head. Aroma of brewing cereal. Light body with a lightly metallic edge. Dry finish. 070606

Bottle. Clear yellow coloured with a white head. Aroma of malts, fruits and corn. Flavour of malts and corn. Very watery.

Bottle. Golden colour with a small white head. Strange fresh grass, light hoppy aroma and a light sweet malty, sugar taste. Light body with a watery finish.

A light orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of straw and corn - and so is the flavor. For what it is, it is not bad.

Thin snow white head, clear golden body. Almost no aroma, only a vague hint of meat and grain and a bit of fruit. Cirtusy and slightly hoppy flavor again with a strange meaty tone. Dry mouthful. I feel sorry for the Ethiopians!
