Green 600 ml bottle: Not much to go on aroma or taste-wise, it’s all so faint. Bright golden yellow body with a creamy white head. The aroma is corn, a trace of sweet malt, and some grass and flowers. The flavor is very light, malt with corn and some grass. Kind of an earthy finish to it.

This beer is a clear straw color with with a short white head that dissipates quickly. Spotty lacing. Mild hops aroma with vegetables and malt in the background. Light body with light sweet malt and grassy hops flavors. The finish is mildly bitter hops with a short sweet malt aftertaste. Nothing redeeming about this beer, it makes Tsingtao interesting by comparison.

The nicely wrapped bottle was what made me buy it. Light aroma, medium-dark yellow colour, small disappearing head, not a strong taste with hints of a wheaty flavour. Nothing special but not bad.

Gold color with a thin head. Aroma of rice, dusted with moldy hops. Corny taste, finishing with a drop of skunk. Not nearly as bad as I was expecting.

Standard gold color with a fizzy white head. Aroma and flavor of malt and grain. Thin palate. Nothing much going on with this.

We just recently got this on our order pad in Morrisons Fleet so of course I had to order some in. Today I put them on the shelf and of course bought one for myself so I can tell customers about it (Good Excuse). The look of the bottle apealed to me straight away as it’s very eye catching. The tast is not as strong as you thought it would be which is very suprising. First taste of it I wasn’t to sure but a few mouthfuls and im impressed by it. I wouldn’t class it as a regular drink but if I saw it out in a pub then this would be one of those I would drink. Price was about around about £1.80. This is a drink you would have every so often, not all the time. I would recomended this to any of my customers
