Oct 27, 2009 Tasted 10/21/09. 12oz bottle. Thanks B. Filtered with a golden hue. Imagine that. Webbed ring of bone white head. Cereal grains and a slight undertone of apples in the nose. Trace grassy note. Medium bodied with a crisp bite and a decent astringency. Bready and bitter. Fun drinking and a rare opportunity.

I continued to test the "standard" selection on bottle at SB (will skip most of the Swedish ones, that are not OK) so with this on there are about 10 more to test...
AR: hops,
AP: golden pilsner, light head
F: hops, something not so nice and chemical - sulfur perhaps?
AF: short hoppy flavor

Oct 25, 2009 Bottle. Not good, but maltier than most pale lagers. Flavour is sweet, with light bitterness. Aroma has some malt. Thin and watery in the palate. Dark yellow with a white head that dissipates.

Oct 13, 2009 Faint sweetish aroma. Pale amber with little head. Flavour is sweetish malt with some hoppy bitterness. Thin bodied. Finishes with malty sweetness and noticeable alcohol kick. Not entirely to my taste, but not as bad as I expected.

Oct 13, 2009 Bottle. I found a bottle of this at home and thought I might as well get it out of the way. Pours light golden yellow with a slight bubbly white head that doesn’t last. Aroma is equal parts grainy, malty and skunky. Flavour is mainly grainy with a hint of grass. Mouthfeel is a bit dry. I used to drink this a lot when I was younger - but now I know better. Drinkable on a hot day if you’re not feeling too fussy.

Slightly dusty lagery aroma. Thin palate, a bit chemical. Tihn taste, some drying huskiness and little else. Finish is more of the husks and some associated graininess. Very drying and not very refreshing. Some sourness and mushroominess too. Anna’s comment added to my review, I don’t know if it was ironic, was simple "tastes shit".

Sep 5, 2009 Extremely common ale all across Victoria State in Australia. Pale yellow colour, little head, not much taste beyond just some more hops and grains. The only interesting thing was what they calld their glassware, something about a "schooner" if I remember correctly.
