Pale golden, clear, medium head. I wouldn’t go so far as calling this "foul", but it is pretty boring. Sweet malt is really all you get for flavour (the same as all corn-adjunct, over-processed pale lagers on the market). I wouldn’t choose to drink it again if an alternative were available, but I wouldn’t turn it down if the beerfridge was empty on a Friday night. This is my standard review for all "two-star-or-less" piss.

Bottled, with Sats, in Sydney. Cats piss yellow an unable to maintain a head. Rancid corn aroma and flavour, not even particularly dry. Absolute rubbish in a bottle.

Pale straw colour with a frothy white head and good lacing. Hop aroma. Not a lot of taste, thin, a touch of lemon and a touch of banana and not much else.

Had this one during my holiday in Australia april/may 2009. Golden, orange colored brew. No aroma. Watery, dry, bitterness, dusty, dull aftertaste.

Anything described as 'dry' is going to be short on mouthfeel and body. Also it lacks balance as the bitterness is not matched by the malt, so even though they have used the best malted barley CUB decided to add some additional adjuncts to ferment the taste out of the beer. Well done lads, you have succeeded

"Premium ingredients... chill filtering... perfectly balanced... crisper, drier and sharper..." Bloody marketing-speak. Presumably this was dreamed up to counter Toohey’s bizarrely popular Dry. Why bother. Pale gold, skinny vanishing head. Standard CUB nose - POR hops, soapy wet dog. Sweet and malty with a barely-there finish. Lemonade-like spritz. Not especially dry.
