Can. Pours a dark brown colour with a thick white head. Real yeasty aroma, the taste is fairly bland but the high alcohol content comes through in the finish.

can: Nothing special about this. Taste like mass produced lager with stonger alcohol flavor. Has that weird lager that is ultra grassy but not nice. Has some malt flavor and some hops in the after taste. Pretty balanced. Really only good for the buzz of a 500 mi can of 7.5%.

Can. Amber beer with a strong head. The aroma is mildly/yeasty dry and the flavour is mainly dry and fairly yeasty. Overall an average beer.

Can. Toffee coloured with a thin off white head. Aromas are sweet caramel with malt whisky, pepper and alcohol. Flavours are caramel, watered down whisky, pepper and strong alcohol. Better than many other examples of the style.

Good fizziness to cut through the light caramel flavours. Clings slightly near the finish, with some alcohol notes showing. A decent quality strong lager - quite drinkable.
