Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

0,33 l bottle. One of the worse "global lagers". Very dull and one dimensional, with an artificial sweet flavor. Very disappointing and irritating beer, especially because of its global presence.

Thank god they stopped brewing the 3.4%abv version of this in the uk!!! The imported 5%abv version is a far superior beer, with a far fuller flavour.

yellow body, white head. no lacing. little aroma of grass and nothing else. a little bitter in the finish. this isnt like a beer. a poor beer.
