Fizzy yellow with a decent fluffy white head. Ultra skunked aroma with loads of bad graniness and grass. Funky skunky flavor with a watery finish. Absolutely unpleasant to drink.

I like this beer. I agree, it is not abundant with flavor, but it is different. The first time I drank it was my first time in London, so it reminds me of change (wihch is to say different from the regular light beers of college life).

Can. Pours a clear golden color with a longlasting white head. Sweet malty grassy aroma. The flavor is sweet malty with some bready and grassy hints. Long malty finish with some sweetness. Has some bitterness in the aftertaste.

Average lager. Sweet, perfumey smelling. Flavor is sweet but not much else. Lacks complexity.

Pours a crystal clear yellow that reminds me too much of other unenjoyed recent endeavours. The head is a cream-coloured froth that disappears into a trace of large, spidery bubbles. The smell is strong on the grassy side, with hints of celery and apple peeping through here and there. The mouthfeel is average on the carbonation, but seems a bit watery. The taste is initially honeyed, but watered down, with a metallic bitter finish that doesn’t seem to give its all. A bit of delicate roasted malt is noticed, but over time it wears to become too astringent. Through the glass, the notes become more tart and tangy, but it all adds up to an unlikeable clash. Not bad. Not good. Somewhere in the middle of the beer void...
