Straw coloured with a strange bitterness thats hard to describe.For a low alcohol beer it had a surprising amount of body.Slightly medicinal.

This beer has a golden body - hue apperance and a white scum collar. I have drunk the beer from the bottle and it had a lot of carbonic acid. The initial flavor tast was mild bitter.

Can (from gold-digger MoritzF): Pale golden colour, big fluffy head that slowly diminishes; faint, but fresh hoppy nose, distinctive traces of sweet malt; light sweet-bitter flavour, light bodied; longer, slightly bitter-sweet finish, a bit watery. A good thirst quencher, nothing really unpleasant detectable....

Canned on a South African Airways flight from London to Johannesburg. Pale golden coloured with a stable white head. Bready and malty aroma. Sweetish flavour of bread and brew mash. Not too light bodied. Decent light lager.
