330ml Bottle, 5% a/v Pours light straw color with little noticeable carbonation. Small white head which quickly dicipates (sp?) Skunky aroma with some hops permeating. Taste consists of skunky hoppyness as well. Watery palate, and a nice mild aftertaste. Pretty good beer for when your feeling a little fancy.

An average choice for me at best. I thought I would like this beer more then I did. It’s not that it was bad, it just was not all that special. Corny Taste and a little bitter for my palette. I did not try it at room temp but I will go out on a limb and say that it is doubtful that it would help anything. A very plain Jane beer. Serve Cold.

Clear light golden color with a medium frothy white head. Sweet corn aroma. Corn and rice flavors with some very faint hints of hops.

Clear sparkling light amber-yellow colour. Lasting medium white head. Skunky hops scent. Mostly inoffensive corn taste with some hops, harsh afternotes. Still more drinkable than Miller Lite.

Gold body with a large white head, for once... not a urine colored Pale Lager. Not too bad on the aroma, some light hops in addition to the corn, better than 90% of the BMC stuff out there. Taste is harsh, not very smooth, corn is very prevalent. Dry and bitter ending.

12 oz bottle. Must be missing something here. 2.4 wow. This was horrible. Somebody grab me a BUD...

A very pale lager.The skunky aroma overpowers the hops. It is a bit crisp but again the hops are not really a good quality to taste right. A dry grain flavor is most apparent with a bit of bitter finish.

UPDATED: AUG 9, 2006 This is a good lager. Green-bottle-skunkiness aside (Heineken, Stella Artois), there is a crisp bite and refreshing swallow. Very drinkable. Often on sale where I live for as little as $3.99 a sixer. Great deal.
