Pours crystal clear, yellow, sparkling fizzy. now a staple of oddbins, i had to bring home a six pack and try it. nose is distinctly barnyardy, some pine. sweet toffee malt and sugar. tastes some skunky funk to it, but also a bit of complexity not much, simple flavours like honey, and even some slight menthol. this is my favourite cheap lager at the moment.

Draft at The Bier Stube in Moline, IL. Poured a typical clear golden color. The head was two fingers high and white with good retention. Some scant lace was left behind on the glass at the end. Smelled of dry cereal grain, grassy hops, and subdued steeping barley. Light bodied and slightly sweet with mild bitterness at the end. Flavors included the likes of hay, syrupy toffee, grass, and noble hops.

Bottle. And beer number 7 in a Pilsner tasting. I hate pilsner. Maybe that influenced my review. Straw-yellow colour with shite short-lasting head. Aroma and flavor is sour and very bitter and skunky. Didn’t enjoy this one bit.

bottle - Yellow golden beer with white head. Faint hops aroma. Flavour is watery, some maltiness and hops. Moderate bitterness.
