Feb 13, 2007 Canned. Pale yellow. Cleaer. Fluffy off white head. Sweet and light rotten fruit aromas. Not very pleasant. Flavour is a bit meaty and undpleasant as well. Totally watery and thin. Is light canny. This is not a good beer.

Feb 13, 2007 Canned. A light yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is malty in some weird way, while the flavor has a very boring malt profile, combined with a light touch of hops, giving it a slightly bitter end. The body is thin, and all in all it is boring. Why is Maisel brewing this?

Mar 9, 2005 500 ml red can, now available in Norway ("hooray!" - NOT!). I saw this low carb beer in England too (but resisted buying it there), it’s contract brewed by German brewers Gebr. Maisel for some shady London company wanting to profit on the American-inspired "low carb" craze. Maybe Maisel feel as if their brewing skills are sold for "prostitution" (in terms of craft pride) - that could explain the "redlight" name of the beer... I’m sure it will become popular in the "redlight districts" of Europe - or maybe not ....
Anyway, like all(?) low carb beers the colour is very pale straw coloured, head goes from large & fluffy to none. There actually is some aroma: grass and hints of citrus. Not much flavour of course, but better than feared, at least it’s not offensive - fairly clean with a faint hint of hops. Watery and slightly metallic mouthfeel, as expected. Aftertaste is next to none. But seriously - why "low carb" beers? Go for a walk in stead!
