If nothing else, it LOOKED good. Clear, Golden and looked like it should be a nice crisp drink. The aroma was a somewhat sweet and quite hoppy. A bit effervescent, but the taste disappointed. Bitter/Sour, with very little hops/malt...but plenty of skunk. Very rarely do I NOT finish a beer that i"m trying for the first time, but about half way through I threw in the towel. Not something I"d recommend. It’s virtually undrinkable to me, but it’s rating is a bit higher than it probably deserves do its appearance and palate.

Tasted 2/8/2008. 12oz bottle. Consumed out of my 1664 500ml glass! Filtered with a golden hue. Lacing white head. Corny grainy cereal aromas. Mild fresh hop nose. Medium to light bodied and crisp. Mildly skunked. Tight effervescence. Sticky and coating. I used to drink this all the time in college, and still find it enjoyable.

Pretty decient lager. Poured a clear golded color with a nice aroma. White head with good retention. Taste was light and malty with hoppy flavor characteristics....nit a bad beer. Also, the one I drank had no skunky flavor.

I tried this beer on draft in Paris, while waiting for a train. It had a clear gold color with an ample, foamy, white head that had good retention and cling on the glass. It had a mild, grainy hop aroma, and a somewhat bland, light malt tone too. The taste was mostly sour and bitter, and also a bit dull. It had a mild level of carbonation and a thinner, dry palate. It is an unexceptional beer, without a unique character.
