Mild hoppy aroma leads to a mild hop flavour leads to a mild bitter tinge in this pale golden easy drinking offering. Had it with some Thai food so that might have increased the enjoyment a touch.

Suprisingly okay. Good flavor, very drinkable. Had a nice hoppy flavor, and crisp taste. Seems like it would be a great football beer.

Bottle. Great hoppy aroma. Nice hop flavor, reminiscent of the aroma. Full flavored. Fair mouthfeel, though. Slightly thin due to the lack of fizz. Golden color visible evn through the green bottle. Mild carbonation, though, lacking the fizz that I like. Great lager, though. Defninitely a repeat buy for me.

After drinking a Kokanee and a Bud, this was great. Lot of flavour. Great hops prescence. Fruity prescence. Slight yeastiness. Lovely smooth maltiness. Full bodied. Lasting (yet small) head. But maybe the previous two beers affected my judgement...

Pale golden colour with a thick white head. Strong aroma of grass and hay along with some pale malt. Smell also reminds me of bees-wax. No skunkiness, which is in itself notable, especially with these green bottles. Flavour is grassy with a nicely bitter finish. Interesting, and very different from every other pale lager I’ve ever had.

Blonde coloured body with a thinnish white head. Aroma of malt and some miniscule hops. Light to Medium-bodied; Clean and bubbly mouthful with the standard light lager flavour. Aftertaste clean and refined. Overall, not the worst beer I could imagine, but definitely not the best. I sampled this on draught in Melbourne, Australia.

750ml green bottle. Poured gold. Soap sud like head, huge bubbles, head fizzled out almost instantly. Grass/skunk aroma. Clean tasting, nice Saaz-like bitterness in the finish, but nothing groundbreaking.
