2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 humulushound (242) - British Columbia, CANADA - DEC 9, 2009
Golden-yellow with minimal white head. Aroma is grassy hops, bread, sweet corn. Taste is much the same with some bitterness and light astringency in the finish. On the lower end of mediocre, but reasonable for a mass-distributed lager.

A very underwhelming lager. Easy to drink, Light in flavor & aroma. Pours pale to medium golden with a thin white head. Glad I tried it, but probably won’t buy again.

Mediocre beer. The flavor is not very hoppy, nor is the head very clean or long lasting. Worth trying once.

330 ml bottle from LCBO, served cold in a tulip glass.
App.: Clear light golden with a nice white foam.
Aroma: Light malts – biscuit, grain, cereal, a little light grassy hops.
Palate: Medium body, soft, sparse carbonation, smooth.
Flav.: Some cardboard, a little light malt, a bit more grassy hops than the nose; dry with a bit of bitterness, finishes quickly.
Drinkable but lacklustre.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 drjay44 (1613) - Salida, Colorado, USA - OCT 17, 2009
330 ml. bottle. Pours a thin white head, with a bit of lacing, over a pale yellow (SRM 3) clear body.....nose is very light, with a bit of biscuit, bit of grass, possibly some corn......taste is very light with a hint of malt to start and a hint of hop bitterness to finish....mouth feel is light and watery, carbonation makes it fizzy. This really is too light to be enjoyable. However this is a very minimalist beer style, and from that standpoint this beer obviously meets the goal.
