I like this one better than most pale lagers. If you like el bueno skunko, try it.

"World’s Best Lager". Wow, that’s funny. Essentially it is New Zealand’s answer to Foster’s/Budweiser/Labatt Blue. Just another bland pale lager... but they are refreshing in their own way.

Another pale lager import into Ontario. Not the worst of its style, some thirst quencher on an oppressively hot day. Nothing much to look at colourwise, a bit of temporary foram. Some substance in the taste. Malt, and some yeast. Malty balanced aftertaste.

Metallic lightly skunky aroma. Pale clear straw body topped by decent though short-lasting white head. The flavor is not so bad really. Quite hoppy, only lightly harsh metallic. Served at the right temp. (cold!) in teh right mood it is actually fairly decent.The add green 750ml bottle was an unexpected bonus.

Blonde très pale, faible mousse blanchâtre issue d’un minuscule dégagement gazeux. La pièce se remplit d’une puissante odeur de moufette en détresse dès l’ouverture de la bouteille. Arômes hyper skunky montrant également une bonne dose de légumes bouillis, de maïs et de jus de pomme. Les flaveurs de grains sont complètement dominées par le DMS en bouche. Densité très mince, faible carbonatation, légèrement piquante. Finale sèche transportant un léger arrière-goût de grain et de métal. Bouteille SAQ Mai 2005.

Had in Amsterdam. Like hard cider, but much worse. I didn’t like this at all.

Wow that was a bad beer! Not a very pleasant skunky aroma, .straw color. terrible skunky flavor- not very good.

gets a pass, this is a pleasent enough beer, but is very similar to the James Boags/Cascade Premium style beer of low malt, clean hops. Unfortunately it also shares a touch of cidery/carb soda that affects the Boags premium.
