50 cL bottle. Pours pale and clear yellow with a lacing white head. Light malty aroma. Flavour is mild butterish. Light malty and subdued bitter. Ends medium dry and light soapy.

Bottle. Pale golden beer, thick white head. Aroma is quite malty. Pale malt and a soft herbal hoppy aroma. Flavour is quite clean and well-attenuated. Light crackery malts, herbal hops and a fairly herbal bitterness. Well-hopped for the style. A bit metallic but overall fairly non-offensive and better than many of the "premium" beer in the same category.

Yikes. Little to no aroma some faint hints of old sheet metal. Pale straw gold color with a big foamy white head. Watery, little flavor, stale. Very bubbly and light.
