Poured from bottle a light golden with a large white head and lots of visible carbonation and nice lacing. There is not a lot to the aroma except a bit of grassy hay, a pinch of sweet malt, and something a little soapy. Flavor is mild and round with some hay and grass notes, a slight malt and honey sweetness, and just a little bitterness that dances through the taste. This beer seems very light almost watery at times. The one I have is several months past the best by date so the flavors may have dulled. Overall, flavor is ok, but nothing stands out. It is very easy to drink and would work well in a super hot climate. I might choose this one in Tahiti, but skip elsewhere.
