Commercial Description:
Bottle: Pasteurised
A full-bodied lager with lots of malt and hop character. A touch hoppier than many lagers yet perfectly balanced with lots of fruity hop character and fragrance.

Sampled from a 550 ml brown bottle this beer poured a yellow-golden color with a large yellow-white head. The aroma was faint tangy and sour typical lager. The flavor was light, dryish and tangy with faint fruits and a touch of grassy hops. The finish was short and simple. Medium body. Crisp with no off flavors. Not a whole lot going on but certainly drinkable.

Smooth and clean with a sweet malt taste when you’re looking for a more meaty/heavy lager. Seems to go a little flat quickly but not bad overall. Wouldn’t consider it my daily lager but it’s pleasant to try.

Grassy nose, subdued hop character. Pale yellow, maybe even fizzy yellow, minimal head. Ticklish small bubble carbonation. A bit fruity in the palate. Nothing special.

Sharp fruity grain aroma with mild amounts of yeast. Clear yellow color with a small white head. Sweet beginning similar to apple juice. Light hoppy finish.

Golden with slight carbonation and a decent white head. A decent enough lager, with some sweetish malts, grassy hops and bitter finish. Ok.

Pale gold, small head. Aromatic malt aromas. Slightly sweet, just a hint of hops, floral; maltose flavors predominate. A decent, but unexceptional, lager. edit: I left this half full, capped, in a fridge overnight, and I think it actually improved. Got a wild, herby smell; kind of awakening in character. Wouldn’t want it like this often, but still interesting.

500. Pours a crystal clear pale gold with a nice sudsy white head and decent stringy lace. Urine nose. Oof. Creamy, slightly woolly light body. Corn, cabbage, and a bit of urine-y-ness on the mid-palate. Neutral finish.
