A standard new world interpretation of a pilsner....light in color with no head. A standard BMC taste....bad...with the can coming out fairly well.

(bottle - 12 oz) Pale gold color with little carbonation or foam. Aroma is dry and bitter grass with hints of corn and some stale hops. Flavor is sweet and dry at the start with an oddly sweet hint in the middle. Bitter and metallic at the end with a cloying grassy and bitter finish.

From the 12 fl. oz. bottle marked IG30C128-21:15. The pour is a golden-yellow with virtually no head and non-stop upwardly mobile carbonation. The aroma is vaguely malted, vaguely hopped, with a side bar of cut wet grass. A creamy but thin mouthfeel. The taste is rather flat and sour with a slightly bitter ending. This is your typical Central American style pale lager and nothing extraordinary. Their dark brew is better.

Light straw color; Light body; Aroma of grain and cereal; Flavor of light malt & hops and some grain; Fairly bland and watery as to be expected; Not terrible - about the same as a Corona for me.

Bottle, The Peacock, Liverpool. Even with a chunk of lime rammed down its neck this is still watery piss.
