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.

Bottle. Pours a golden body with a white head. Hints of citrus and grass come through the bread y and grain y body. Light bitter finish with nothing much to talk about, still a step up from half your average beer store.

Pours yellow with little to no head. Tastes like a better version of Bud. Little more flavor and slightly hoppier.

Looks like a lager. Smells like a lager, a little bit stale and metallic though. Pretty big on flavour. Nice and crisp, very cereally backed up by something boozy at the end and quite a nice, toasty aftertaste. Almost too fizzy. A good flavour but lacks real bite.

Bottle at home. Clear golden coloured with a medium sized white head. Aroma of malts, hay and grass with notes of fruits and hops. Flavour of malts, hay, grass and fruits with notes of hops and caramel. Hoppy finish.

Not sure exactly how fresh this bottle is, but I was pleasantly suprised at how tasty it was, and the hop levels were clearly noticeable. The beer’s best character was the flavor, which had a pleasant fruityness supplied by the yeast that matched really well with the hops used. It really breaks the standard "lager" mold with hop level, so it was really welcome. Aromas carried the cereal-like malts with some light flesh fruits, and a touch of grass. Very enjoyable beer.

This beer was very easy to drink due to its weaker flavors and did not fill me up. Low carbonation, very earthy tasting with a sweet aftertaste. Sweetness was not a sugar sweet but rather a bread or vegetable sweet. The whole beer was very natural tasting. Enjoyed this for what it was.

500 ml bottle poured a clear gold with a lingering white head. Aromas of bread, light straw and hints of citrus and spice. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of bread dough, light straw, light citrus and a hint of spice with a crisp lingering lightlyt bitter finish.

This is the most disappointing Samuel Smith beer I have tasted. The "full-bodied" line is a bit of a miscasting of this beer. It was very grainy, a tiny bit of hops, and not nearly enough edge or boldness to make a really good beer. A bland concoction.
