charcot25 (180), Cordova, Tennessee, USA Feb 2, 2008 Bottle from a sealed 12 pack so not skunked. Very pale golden beer with thin white head. Has typical Euro lager aroma of Pils malt, maybe some spicy hop notes and a twinge of DMS. Taste is the same. Too carbonated with very thin mouthfeel. Now what the hell am I going to do with the other 11 bottles?
thehurt01 (128), Denver, Colorado, USA Jul 17, 2008 The beer poured an golden yellow with a soapy head. The smell is straw and wheat. The taste is flat and watered down. Not good at all. xShanex (18), Mansfield, Texas, USA Jul 17, 2008 Pours light golden. Nothing special. Much like cheap american lager. Have another? No. caruso187 (3), Mount Washington, Kentucky, USA does not count Jul 16, 2008 Very smooth and refreshing. On the down side I find this beer to very filling. bbrock81 (175), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Jul 15, 2008 Ugh, how plain. Macro beer in a green bottle - a poseur. No better on tap, except that it’s easier to avoid being light-struck. Large, thin head that disappears rapidly, leaving the clear straw-colored beer in the glass. Generic armoas and flavors of light malt, weak hops, and a hint of yeast (if you manage to get some that isn’t skunky). The palate is the same as Coke’s. Don’t buy it. Please. fullers (4), Toronto, Canada does not count Jul 13, 2008 Bottle, Victory Serices Club, London. Comes with dinner. Yellow, surprisingly flavourful. Not unpleasant.
I managed to not drink this ubiquitous beer during a month stay in Belgium. How ironic to be saddled with it in London thanks to the global reach of InBev. Not a style of beer I have much time for. At least it is unobjectionable.
