BBF 11.3.2009, tasted 17.12.2009 clear pale yellow, small white head. sweet aroma, faint stale hops. flavor is flowery, faint citussy, dry. balanced by faint but good hoppy bitterness. i know lots of macro beers that would be much worse this far past best before date.

Pours clear bright yellow with a small white head. Smells chemically fresh and tastes mildly sweet, acidic and bitter. Light bodied and watery texture. (Mini-can, courtesy of roger@Bryne 12.12.2009)

Bottle shared by Jay, your a dick, i mean thanks for the tick. haha pours a generic pale golden body with a white fizzy head. Paper cardboard, adjuncts, crisp sweet bitter and metallic. Down the drain is where this belongs.

Pours pale gold with a large but rapidly fading head. Aroma is lacking: some grainy malt and possibly grassy hops? A hint of white wine. Quite sweet upon tasting and amazingly light on. Sweet bready malt is the only discernible flavour. Practically no bitterness whatsoever. Become cloying after a few sips. Carbonation is too high. Massively high. Very watery too. Considering the lack in flavour, this is not what you want. Possibly the most flavourless beer I’ve had. Even beats Kilkenny in that way. However, no flavour is better than bad flavour!

Bottle I took to Paul’s place for Kan’s visit. Pours a clear light yellow with a thin white head. Grainy, little bit of lemon. Sweet, empty, little bit of paper. Finishes up without anything of note. Generic pale lager.

10/21/09 from 22oz bottle. Aroma is very corny sweet/sour pils with a light, but not objectionable soapy note. Appearance is the lightest clear yellow possible with a very low white head. Flavor is is sour malt followed, followed by sweetnes and has some of the lightest bittering in a light lager I’ve seen. Mouthfeel is light bodied with a moderate carb texture. Overall, simple, even for a pale lager, but this does manage to produce a beer without much to object to.
