Hazy blond color. Very common aroma and taste as other Lagers. Poor.

(12oz bottle) Small white head that dissipates quickly, atop a crystal clear apple juice body. Aroma starts off skunky, but that clears away to reveal medium sweetness, cereal, light grassy. Taste is medium sweet, cereal, some metallic. Watery light body.

Poured a lighter and clear golden color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of grain, light grass and some light sweet malts. Tastes of ctirus with a light honey sweetness to it. Like the body, both the aromas and tastes were the watery and thin side.

( 12oz bottle ) Pours a clear pale yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of grass, skunk, and cereal. Flavor of grass, light metallic, and sweet malt.

Pours a pale clear yellow golden with a thin, short-lived ring of white head. Grainy pale malty aroma has some earthy noble hoppy character. Body starts lightly pale malty sweet with more bittering Saaz hoppy character toward a watery, well-carbonated bland finish. Not undrinkable, but more like a nicely flavored sparkling water than anything.

Bottle... NTB Ernesto Festo ’06... Clear yellow ale with a small, fizzy, white head. Grainy, citrusy aroma with a light lemon note. The flavor is lightly bittered, but boasts sweet peach and mild lemon. Medium-bodied and fizzy. Lengthy, faintly bitter finish.
