Quite bland, not alot of head. Pretty watery, but I suppose it would be good on a hot day, not bad, but very plain!

Bottle. Being traded around these parts as Sinha Lager, presumable to suck people like me in because I liked the stout. Hey , it worked. Medium to light industrial lager aroma. Quite thin body, watery palate. Nothing great about this, just boringly inoffensive.

Clar brass body, dark around the edges. Medium-thick cottony head. Smell is malty, yeas, vegetables. Taste is water, bandaids, blood, caramel and pale malts. Poor beer.

Some people must have got this guy skunked. Perhaps the crispest beer i’ve ever had. Goes down very smooth and has a taste that will make you smile and say Thats good beer.

Deep golden almost amber color with no real head. Corn aroma. Smooth over the tongue. Not bad.

Dull lightweight Sri Lankan lager. Pale gold, short head. Classic lager nose - spritzy, wtih some lemony hops. Light-bodied and quenching. A real flyweight. Little or no character. (Bottle)

Bottle. Golden colour with a small white head. Light sweet malty grassy aroma and a malty dry taste. Light body and a light dry finish.
