Small corked bottle called "Krait Champagne Lager" purchased at John’s Market Place in Portland, OR--Poured a bright orange golden bubbly body with a medium-to-thick white head. Fruity esters in the nose. Apples, pears, oranges, and alcohol. Earthy, spritzy sharp mouthfeel. Mildly tangy and tart with a nice fruit backing. The only problem was the mild cardboard flavor. Probably a bit old. Not nearly as bad a beer as I was anticipating.

Way over-priced at 12$. Fruity nose of pear, sweet toffee. Appearance is unimpressive, much like applejuice, without much of a head. Heavily carbonation full of spice, alcohol completely hidden. Awful name.

Bottled. Golden colour, not much of a head. Aroma is alcohol, some fruity sweetness as well as mild notes of earth. Flavour is quite much the same, in a bad way, as the beer is totally out of balance and also quite harsh.

I’m guessing with this one, I was feckin’ wankered at the time of drinking it, woke up next morning to find it half drunk in the middle of the livingroom floor. Tried a bit and tasted of piss. Down the sink. Not bad otherwise.
