Bottle. Pale yellow color. Medium sized, bubbly white head. Some bready malts and grass in the aroma. Flavor is your standard pale lager fare. Slighly hoppy with a fizzy, crisp finish. Slight bump because the beer comes from the same country that gave us Flight of the Conchords.

Pours to a watery yellow body with a thin foamy white head. The aroma is 100% skunk with a light grain. The flavor is silage (not the good kind() and skunky hops. Very blah! Chock full of something and it’s not good. The palate is skunky and average at best.

Poured into a pint glass. Yellowish gold with a frothy white head that recedes quickly and leaves little lacing. Aromas of fusel alcohol and grain. Sort of pils malty base with a miniscule dash of noble hops. Dry water-cracker finish, lots of carbonation. There’s even a little bitterness at the back of the palate, although that may be a metallic note rather than a hop note. Not overtly adjunct-laden, which is nice. Not awful.

Thanks to Blake for bringing the bottle (sorta). Poured clear, brighter pale golden with a rather well-retained cap of white head. The aroma was impressive for the amount of skunkage going on in here.. even after 8 minutes.. some pale malts and some honey, but the skunk was ever-so-present. The flavor strayed from that a little bit, picking up some honey sweetness.. still carried through plenty of skunk. Lighter-bodied with adequate carbonation on the palate.. a bit tacky with too much skunk still. Not so good.
