beerledgend (1050) - Waterloo, Wellington, NEW ZEALAND - NOV 2, 2006
Light gold in colour with big spritzy white head. Stong honey malt aroma. Malty flavour, mild bitterness. but dry finish. Not bad for a light beer.

Nemo (100) - Fremantle, AUSTRALIA - JUN 25, 2004
Yellow colouring with a thick head. Blande, dry and like drying sewerage water taste. Avoid this one.

IslandHaole (1053) - Yokosuka-Shi, Kanagawa-Ken, JAPAN - MAR 4, 2004
Crystal clear, medium golden with a foamy white head. Has a slight straw scent. Another wet cardboard tasting LA/NA brew. There must be something that gives them this odd flavor during the alcohol removal process.

2 for packaging effort. I was again tricked by this brewer and I think I saw him! he looked alot like the Joker on Batman! No taste, not flavour, no palate in fact no nothing at all in this little gem from the Adelaide water system!

Same as the draught, only more shocking. Lacks flavour, body, aroma, um, is this a beer?

I tasted it 12 years ago under the name West End Eagle Blue. And no, it was not good ...

Octopussy (50) - Adelaide, AUSTRALIA - MAR 28, 2002
What a light version of Draught would probably tast like and I guess that is what is is supposed to be like. Not bad for a light.

Not bad for a light
