It is golden with a huge, white and creamy head. The aroma has notes of dusty malt. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of dusty malt, grain, light straw and flower and the finish is slightly dry. The overall impression is watery.

Pours straw golden with a two fingered white head. Lots of skunky hop and sweet corny malt aroma. Flavor is very light, sweet and a little grassiness.

This stuff sucks. Not a bad beer but boooooooring. Same old pale gold colour and same old malt taste, decent head and isnt that bad if it warms up. MMMM MMMM skunky skanky beer yumm yumm - too bad i contradict myself and say that I wount have a problem getting slammed on this stuff. Why are so many people drawn to boring beers?
1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Pale yellow color. Bottle I tried was pretty skunky. Corn/grass with little if anything to set it apart from other pale lagers. Watery and lacking any redeeming qualities.
2.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
330 mL Bottle. Sraw body with a foamy white head that settles to a frothy film lacing the sides of the glass generously. Aroma is grains and yeast with a sour earthiness about it; not that pleasant. Sweet grainy-corny-grassy flavor with the hop bitter expressing in the aftertaste and lingering in the finish along with a note of butter biscuit; a distinctive taste. Brownie points for that one-of-a-kind flavor
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
330ml bottle. Pale straw in colour. Clear with a tight white head and mild carbonation. Skunky aroma of hops. Dry texture with an aftertaste of dry straw. Hop and malt taste. Average NZ drop.

O.K Steinies have been around for a while, Tall Greenies, the Tall Blue, you name it they’ve bottled it in different styles over the years. And to their credit, they haven’t bastardised the taste over all those years of promotion. It has a distinctive taste, no argument there, it doesn’t give you more of a headache than other lagers? Well, I’d stick to the German brewed lagers. A unique taste.
