Bland, pointless international lager. If I want that, I can get local swill so much cheaper. What kind of loser would drink a yellow beer from Ireland instead of the black stuff?

Sparkling ultra-pale straw body topped by medium white head. Aroma is plastic, mild grassy. Taste is medium sweet, corn, mild grassy. Light body. Inoffensive fluff of a beer, why bother?

Sparkling clear, yellow lager with a small, fizzy, white head. The aroma is barely there, but I detect very light notes of mash and clover honey. Nevermind the flavor as there really isn’t any. Not offensive, at least. Light-bodied with a fizzy mouthfeel. Short, crisp, clean finish.

I could smell the corn when I popped the bottle. It poured a rich yellow color, but its head disappeared as I poured. The aroma was of sweet corn syrup. Very little malt flavor, just the syrupy sweetness and a touch of hops. Sticky finish.
