Oh look!!! anoth Carona wannabe. pale yellow with no head. sweet malty honey flavour. Thin but mouthfeel lingers longer than the Bohemia I had before.

Pours an almost clear golden color. Aroma is a little malty. Flavor is basically water. Kind of refreshing. 12 oz. can.

Can from the LCBO. I drank this after choking down a couple gulps of Yanjing Beer to get a rating, so this seemed like a frickin’ Westy after that, but I’ll try and be realistic with my rating. Golden yellow colour with a decent sized white head. Aroma is bland but not unpleasant, fairly sweet with a hint of corn. Medium bodied. Light, unremarkable flavour that I forgot about within minutes of finishing it. It didn’t disgust me, but I still don’t feel the need to ever drink it again.

Pours light yellow with a small white head. Skunky bitter watery taste. Avoid this beer unless it’s the only option.

Taste from a 12oz can, provided by Turdferguson - thanks Sam! Many folks suggest that absolutely nothing distinguishes domestic yellow swill from its international brethren and sistren. I say no! This beer, as Sam pointed out to me, tastes like incense. In other words, it sucks in a slightly creative way. So it’s got that going for it.

12 oz bottle. A bit of a malty aroma, not much else. Flavor was citrusy, like someone had already dropped a lime into it. It had an unpleasant plastic-y aftertaste. Palate was thin and fizzy. I had one at a party, otherwise I wouldn’t have bothered.

Canned. There are beers that you enjoy, there are ones that you dont care about [their not tasty at all but I can drink them easily] and there are beers that you simply don’t want drink because their more or less awful. This one is less, but still - awful.

Poured from bottle a light yellow with small white head. Aroma is lager-like and a bit skunky. Flavor is light malt and corn with a small burst of sweet corn on the finish. Not at the top of my list, but if you have to drink it, it is best very cold.
