Historical Community Tasting Notes

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

Looks OK - has some head retention. Big acetaldehyde aroma with diacetyl and toffee behind it. Tastes watery but if anything its like sparkling apple juice with some toffee and rusty bitterness. Boring. Never seen it in a can as in the photo here either.
Gets marks for being better than the Bitter and the Draught and gets another mark for being better than Geelong Premium. Otherwise it's not that special. If I'm driving or taking it easy I'd have a Boags Premium Light anyday.
Smells amost skunked despite brown bottle. Watery & tasteless, duh it's a light. A waste of water.
