can/stubbie/tap:best out of stubbie, colder the better. got worse since the recent change(to save money). basicly, it just is simple beer, smell and looks wise smells like a hangover, looks like golden clear amber, white head. only for hot days at a bbq. Cheers

Bottled, pasteurised, 375ml. From Phil, cheers. Yellow gold with white head. Corny, sweet aroma followed by a thin, adjunct laden, highly carbonated pale lager. Slight eggy note with a sweet finish. Poor stuff.

I drink this stuff...when I’m drunk and short of cash! For the well informed, this is a very basic drink. It looks like a beer, smells like a beer, and tastes like a beer. At the Barbie, it’s a great companion with the tucker. Pour it cold into a glass...never drink out of the can. Stubbies excepted. Overall a nice drop on a hot day and as the ad says "a hard earned thirst..." fits in well in our wide...dry...hot...brown land.

Oh this is nasty stuff....I agree with you gam, The Green Death. Its the most produced beer in Australia so somebody drinks it, I will only drink it if there is nothing else available.

Golden with an OK head. The aroma is weak, but I think I get a floral note. The flavour is weak, but it has discrete notes of flower and a brief hint of caramel. The bitterness is very low, but it’s a quite harmless and quenching beer...

Had this in a bottle at All That Beer in Seoul at the end of a bar hopping frenzy. The sad part is that I’ve been wanting to try this forever after talking to some Ozzy’s about their favorite beverage. Standard macro nose of yeast and sulpher. Pours a sparkling golden yellow. The brief frothy white head leaves no lace. Flavor has just a tad of character, otherwise non-descript and non-offensive. Light, watery and fizzy. Slightly better than swill; only slightly.
