Draught. Golden with white head. Sweet, malty and slight hoppy aroma. taste is sweet, amlty and fresh. Had it at a bar watching football (soccer) and it went down quite fast along with some of it’s mates. Boring beer, ok pale lager.

I have had from a bottle, and on tap in Belgium. Ok, head nothing great, kinda fluffy. Aroma- skunky Color is straw, normal color. Taste is very bland and skunky. One of my least favorite beers.

As everyone else has said, this beer is skunky. I completely agree. Nice fluffy head, but the beer looks straw like in color, just like every other pale lager. I like darker pale lagers. Slight pilsner aroma/taste, but other than that, there is nothing much to this beer. Not a bad texture I must say. 22 oz. bottle from Greens on Ponce De Leon.

Smelled a bit skunky, and tasted so as well, with some breadiness. Overall not bad, but I wasn’t reaching for another after finishing.

My work had a little get together and someone picked up a sixer of this. I was surprised to see I hadn’t had it yet. I was pleasantly surprised. Crisp, skunky taste with a refreshing finish. Not too bad at all.

Pale yellow with a thick white head. Skunky aroma. The flavor was kind of malty with just a bit of bitterness to balance it out. Not too bad.

Tap. Pale amber pour with a small white head. Bread aroma with some grainy malt. Very faint (lacking). Some light grassy hops. Plain bready flavour, again with a tiny hint of grassy hops. Light body. Reasonable.
