Typical solid gold with waaaaay too many unfiltered chunks, lots of bubbs, poured out a decent thick white cap and left excellent 360 degree lacing. The aroma was dry and soft with wheat and grainy malts but overall it is too weak. Taste is poor. The sharp bitterness wasn’t a good start, either were the chemicals. Dry, grainy and wheaty. It seems like there may be a slight spice in here...maybe. Light bodied, zippy hops throughout, dull but sustained aftertaste. Too gassy. Strange, I swear I just noticed apricots...

12 oz bottle. Would never bought it myself, but my friend braught it over. Not very appetizing color. I’m not sure if there were any aroma. Maybe very slight, bread and sweet malt. Very watery on the palate. Taste of sweet corn. I could not finish the bottle.

Bottle. Light smells of grain for the malt, faint notes of dried grass and flower for the hops and a vegetable/corn smell in the background. Head is fizzy, white with a little lacing and the end of the glass and is mostly diminishing. Color is sparkling clear pale yellow. Flavor is slightly sweet and lightly to moderately acidic to start and then finishes lightly acidic and bitter. Palate is light to medium, watery and has a fizzy carbonation with a dry finish. Your average Pale Lager. Easy drinking and no bad attributes.

Pastis: On tap into a double pint glass. Light gold in color, bitter, hoppy aroma. Watery from what I remember, but very drinkable.

Bottle at home. Clear yellow coloured with a medium sized white head. Aroma of malts, grain, sulphur and hops. Flavour of malts, grain, fruits and hops. Light watery. Boring.

Not really a fan of this one. Smells mostly of malts. Taste is basically the same. A bitter taste in the end. Overall, this one is a first and last. I’ll stick with Bud over this.

Bottle from Paris in Vegas. Aroma is downright putrid; wet malt and grain. Reminded me alot of Heineken. Flavor is basically the same; grainy and uninspired. A bit sweet. Just one of many in this style.

Draft. Amber beer with a whitish head. light malt aroma. Sweet malt flavor with light hay and light grass. Medium bodied. Finishes sweeter with a bit of hay.
