Completely lacking in everything and anything. Bland, no hop presence and a definite chemical aftertaste. Not really woth being rated...

Bland. Cheap highly drinkable beer. Lacks unique character and flavours. One of last choice options.

horrible beer, drink as cold as possible if you must drink it at all, terrible hop and malt flavours make for a terrible beer, cheap rubbish

It surprises me a little to see the low ratings on this one. I find it quite ok. Golden with a nice and rather creamy head. Aroma is hoppy and with some citrus. Has a maild and fruity flavor. Ends with a sweet finish that brings some almond late.

Bottle. Initial bubblegum hint, then a malty, almost vodk-y flvaour, before a bland finish. Quite crisp and nice lacing.

Oz has much better brews to offer than this one. I think I know where the term 'piss' for beer came from. It does the job on a hot WA afternoon in the summer though.

Quite a bland beer. Usually the first beer a young boy or girl will drink on the mainstream, however the taste and aftertaste is very poor and can result in one being sick. Quite a bitter taste, and is only good for a cheap piss up.

Definately not my favourite tap, stubbie, or can beer by any means. Goes down easy, especially ice cold on a hot day out, and has a bitter hint of character that gives it a little something over its cousin the Tooheys New. Definately a beer to quench the thirst, just don't let it get too warm, not an enjoyable warm beer by any means!
