2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
this was not really good at all. Honestly, i’d way rather have a hamms. Not only did it taste like very little, it was well skunky. Not in a good way like grolsch either. drinkable but not worth drinking.

12 oz green bottle . Pours a clear straw with a whispy white head with good retention. Moderatley carbonated. Pale malt aromas with a touch of corn and some spicey hops. Flavor is malt accentuated of sweet pale malt, some cereal. Clean. Medium mouthfeel. Finish is somewhat sweet with some hop bitterness coming through.

Bottle to drink in celebration of New Zealand comedy with Flight of the Conchords. Pours a thin yellow/gold with a fairly large and fizzy, white head. Aromas are skunky hops (like Becks). Flavor is sweet corn malt and skunky hops... not bad, not great. Good summer brew.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
UPDATED: JUN 16, 2008 6 pack of bottles at the grocery store. Pours a pale golden and is surpisingly a medium + body that is quite malty. some skunkiness as the top is popped. A fine dirt moving and lawnmower beer. (Sci-ma-tifi-cally proven). Astringent finish??? Maybe for the kiwis but rather rounded IMHO. A pretty wihite head dissipates fast but leaves a fine ephemeral lacing on the sides of mug.

Bottle from World Market in Davis, CA. Intense grainy/corny smell. Poured a pale yellow with a fluffy white head. Typical pale lager taste grainy, but also had a matly taste. Proabably won’t buy this one again.

This brew pours a golden body with a thin white head. It leaves quite a bit of lacing. This is your classic example of a pale lager, has a malty mouthfeel and a crisp clean finish.

UPDATED: JUL 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours golden, with a large white head. Aroma is a nondescript malt and some grassy hops. Flavor is similar, slightly sweet, with a bit more vegetable hop undertones than expected. Not bad for a pale lager---a bit of actual flavor, and a lack of any offensive adjuncty off-flavors. Kind of like one of the lighter German pilsners, really.

Surprising amount of hops for a pale lager; seems almost like a pilsner. Grassy. Not great.
