Very pale yellow, sweet sour aroma (not in a good way). Flavor much of the same. Watery thin body. Not good at all. Even a PBR would be better than this sutff.

Should have known from the green bottle what was in store. Much lighter than I anticipated, a bit bitter, but not overly, Would I buy again? Probably not, but I’ve had much worse.

This had a real skunky smell. Quite terrible actually. Flavour was quite bland with a touch of sweet malt if anything. Light to medium bodied, but in saying that if it was any stronger it would probably have me gagging. Quite gassy too. I knew the French weren’t good at anything...

Tried this in a smoky, crowded pub and could not distinguish it from Fosters. There is a difference, I know, but.....

A nice fresh hop aroma of good quality hops. A golden yellow lager, not complex, but smooth, not really sweet, more a dry/roast character. I like the hops, very crisp and refeshing but smooth. No bad aftertaste. Not as thin as some pils.

Lukewarm, unpleasantly bitter metallic suds atop a plastic beaker half-filled with ice. OK, so probably not the ideal conditions for sampling a ’premium lager’. The refreshing, sweet maltiness of this beer is best expressed chilled, and at less than 36,000ft.

I was dissapointed by this beer. Although it was light and smooth it lack the care and prestige that beers from this region should have, mild malts and almost no hops.
