2008-09-12. Yellow body with a very small white head. Grainy aroma with pale malts, grass and straw making appearances. (5+) Flavour is dilute, sweetish grains, light grass. Average to thin body. Meh. Bottle c/o Big Red, shared by Tupalev

My first beer as a London resedent, before i even had my house keys. Alround rating: Pale malts, brewing cereal, grassy bittering hop, annoying orange peel like bitterness.

Bottled 33cl. It pours a pale yellow beer with a small head. Poor aroma. Acidic and citrussy components in the flavor. Mediocre. Some mint showing up. Astringent. Not much lacing. Grainy. Low bitterness. A slight hint of chestnuts in the finish.

Bottle (33 cl) at Grill el Mundo (Stora Teatern), Göteborg, Sweden. Pale golden, medium white head. Clean but bland malt aroma, some faint hops, low bitterness, but not overly sweet. Drinkable.

[On draught at Neptune Bar, Haven’s Caister-on-Sea Holiday Centre] One of the palest lagers I’ve seen. There’s no head, and for once the carbonation hasn’t been overdone as is usual in macro swill like this. There’s some malt, a little citrus, a slight bitterness, but overwhelmingly weak and watery. It’s reasonably crisp and refreshing, but there are other macro lagers out there that do the job far better. I hadn’t seen this one before, and I hope that it doesn’t become served more widely.
