I found this one quite impressive, very clean taste and finish compared to many lagers. Reminds me of Kronenbourg. Way to go New Zealand.

Bottle. Quite hoppy, light sweet and later on a light smell of sweat. Medium sized frothy white head, normal long lasting, yellow body. Light bitter taste, short duration. Light to medium body, dry texture, soft carbonation. A light metallic finish. An OK one.

Poured light yellow with small fizzy head. Nose is odd and smells like a mildewed rag. Mouthefeel is light. Flavor is odd also. Not a very enjoyable beer.

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.
