Obviously this is a novelty item but that doesn’t make it bad. Frankly it’s a decemt drink. It’s low ABV makes this good for a hot day. It looks and smells like a lemon cola, having a nice redish hue. The mouthfeel is beer, in both carbonation and texture. The taste is a lightly sweetend Coke with lemon. It was fearing it would be sticky sweet but it’s not and that’s good. I like it fairly well, but I suspect kids will be able to drink it a lot easier then normal and I don’t know if that’s good. Could not drink it all the time.

Jul 26, 2008 Like bad cola. Brown and clear. Has a low, white head, fully diminishing. Cola aroma and sweet flavor. Perhaps a note of something bitter in the finish of the flavor. Syrup, watery texture.

Jun 1, 2008 Clear bottle. Slightly lighter shade of dark brown than a normal cola. Small tan head. Nose is like Diet Coke with a hint of lime mixed with a Warsteiner. Taste is more cola, hints of lime, light grassy hops, and grains. I got a bit more "beer’ out of this than some of the previous raters. Not much, but some. Body is light and fizzy. Lots of belching during this and I’ve only had a couple of sips. Ends with more cola, soft Warsteiner flavors, light lime and grassy notes. I liked the Lime one better.

May 27, 2008 Bottled. Paler than cola, but with fairly rich head. Pepsi aroma. Sweet with real cola flavour. Almost no beer character, but also not as cloying as Rolinck Bastard. Could possibly replace a soft drink.

May 26, 2008 Loose bottle from Binny’s. Best by 2/2/09 Okayyyy… Comes in a clear bottle like a cola. Smells like a cola. Pours cola colored with a quick cola head. Tastes mostly like a cola, but there’s a bit of maltiness and graininess in the back, like a Mexican malto drink. It tastes all right for what it is, I mean it’s by no means as bad as some full-fledged beers I’ve tasted. But there better be actual Warsteiner beer in this somewhere, otherwise this may not qualify to be listed here.
