Bottle. Aroma is a bit past it, taste is industrial lager, after taste not so pleasant. There’s a reason nobody in New Zealand drinks this crap.

Agree with most of the recent raters, perfect way to describe it. Skunky aroma, tastes and a long lingering after taste. I think if I ever got drunk on this alone and puked, I might puke myself inside out.

Very skunky, thin white head. The skunky aroma transfers to the taste as well, and that’s that.

Bottle from the LCBO. Pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is pretty heavily skunked. Once it clears a bit, there’s a faint grassy hop character, but mostly it’s just skunky. Body is weird - it’s thin up front, but oddly sticky towards the back of the tongue. Flavour is faintly skunky, and... well, not much else. In one word: crap.

The aroma is very skunky which i like. The appearance is very light and transparent. The flavor stays at the back of my tongue for several seconds and has a lasting skunky aftertaste. Not heavy at all and goes down smooth. One of the better pale lagers that i have tried.
2.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 scottw86 (835) - Maryland, USA - JUL 20, 2008
Tastes pretty similar to most American lagers. Aroma and taste had a little too much rice in them. Overall it was pretty smooth and drinkable, and I’d choose it over bud.

This comes out of the tap a cloudy straw yellow with a frothy white head. Aroma is malty, not too strong, has a hint of banana. Flavor is malty, nice and crisp, more mouth-filling than most lagers. Texture is sassy and jazzy so it makes you take notice while it is headed down the pipes.

11.15 oz bottle purchased at Super Saver Pennington. Poured into my Allagash glass a very good looking straw gold body with a very large foamy white head. Hey what just happened did someone just kill a skunk?? Nope I just took a sniff and almost fell over. Thin bodied with small bubbly carbonation and a watery finish. Flavor has some skunk and perhaps a touch of hops?? Hard to tell over the Pepe LaPue taste. Life is to short for me to drink any more of this one. Good bye Steinlager thanks for my New Zealand rating.
