Commercial Description:
A lager beer produced using pale barley malt, rice and exclusive varieties of hops which give this beer variety its inimitable aroma, very light and velvety flavor and pleasant bitterness of hops. The addition of rice provides No2 Pale with a surprisingly fresh taste and smoothness, and for these reasons it is easy to drink.
The ingredients are water, pale barley malt, select rice and hops.
Produced since 2004. 11°

500 ml bottle. The aroma is all stink... massively skunked character that just won’t go away. A light earthiness underneath Thin body but not much in the way of redeeming qualities.

Sort of a corny aroma backed with hop. Orangey gold color with a white head that was substantial and left tatters of lacing. Medium bodied. Moderate carbonation. It’s more malt than corn, seems to have some spicey, grassy hop. The finish is reasonably dry, and there is almost enough bitter to balance. Better than mass produced American lagers by a long distance. The long finish is actually pleasant in an understated way.

Aroma was floral sweet.Poured a light golden color with a thick head and bubbles coming up from the bottom.Medium mouthfeel with hops and malt flavor.This was clean, easy to drink and refreshing. The finish was slightly cereal sweet.

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy fine to medium sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent softly carbonated orange colored body and a fair lacing. The aroma was malty and grassy. The semi-thick mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt hops and grassy. Not one that I would buy again.

Bottle... Clear yellow lager with a small, fizzy, white head. Peppery, metallic, mineral nose. Nicely balanced flavor with a spicy hop bite. Medium-bodied and dry with fizzy carbonation. Short, crisp, clean finish. Pretty bland... but refreshing.

Pours pale golden with small medium head, plenty of co2. Dry straw aroma. A sweetness that sort of lingers from beginning to end; doesn’t suit the style.

bottle - Old bottle, is this still made? Pours clear, deep yellow with a thin head. It smells mildly malty, it tastes much like a typical pale lager, sweet and possibly with some corn in there. It’s inoffensive of course, and finishes with a touch of mild hops. I’ve had worse and it didn’t seem like the age was a major problem. Though given the quality of this beer, I’m not sure Hotstuff should be thanking me for sharing it, but you’re welcome anyway.
