well, it is the only beer you can buy in an Australian supermarket

I bought one bottle of this just to try it, but my father-in-law drank it before I got home from work. He said it was "alright"-- light and malty, but refreshing. I’m basing my rating on his experience, plus the fact that any beer with no alcohol automatically gets negative one bizillion points.

I had absolutely nothing else new to sample for what seemed like weeks when I purchased this beer even then it stayed in the fridge for a while before I finally relented and gave it a go. Well my verdict is that I gave it a go and won’t be trying it again. It wasn’t horrible or anything and it had a lot of beer characters, good golden colour, Hop nose (stale) , corn lager body but that was all it had going for it.

OK, so the dictionary defines this drink as a beer. But we all know it isn't. The problem therefore is whether we should rate this as a beer and skew the results of other reviews or rate this for what it is, a beer substitute. I have drunk this on days when no-one else will take the car keys and it isn't bad for that reason. I would rather one of these to a basic Aussie light beer. Having said that it does not deserve high points in a beer forum.

Pale gold clear with a medium size, short lasting white rocky island head. Faint plastic, yeast and popcoarn aroma. Watery thin body. Corny, corn sweet and stale light bitter hops flavour - too bad I hate corn flavour in beer.
