From a 250ml bottle, it poured a pale yellow with a white head about 1CM which dissipated quickly. It tasted like a typical mass-produced lager, and I guess I missed the 'bitter' part. Still, it tasted fresh and was easy to drink in a thirsty sort of way. |

| Very pale in colour with little carbonation and a very thin head. This beer did look clean and crisp though despite the lack of head and bubbles. Virtually no aroma was detected, but what I could detect smelt like stale beer. The initial taste was rough and quite bitter although the aftertaste was alright to the palate. Bitter as advertised, but overall a sub-standard beer. | ||||
