[1] Review by mmmmBeer from Edmonton, Canada who has tried this beer once. (11/10/2008 8:35:02 PM)
"Poured a decent white cap for a pale lager that was really noisy and disappeared to a thin film very quickly, comes complete with a pale gold body. Nat says it looks like champagne. Musty apple, weak Euro hops, very mild aroma that’s non offensive. Flavour is also very mild with bready / grass clipping malts and a metallic finish. Hops come across dark and bitter but also very mild. This comes across overall very sweet with a barnyard like quality but it remains drinkable but very forgettable. "

[2] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (8/26/2008 5:56:54 PM)
"330 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger, as Menabrea Birra 1846. ABV in Norway is 4.7%. Crystal clear golden colour, big and lasting white head. Strong and sweetish fruity aroma. The flavour is fairly clean and zesty, no unpleasant off-flavours, moderate hops in the finish. Definitely not the worst pale lager I’ve had."

[3] Review by vanderla from Sydney, Australia who has tried this beer once. (3/18/2007 11:17:06 PM)
"Pale yellow/straw. Rockey white head that fades quickly.
Grainy malt nose, light weight. Subtle reminder of Corona or similar.... must be the maize.
Flavour like the nose. Hollow & watery. No mid palate. Slight cloying feel at the end, medium bitterness. No hop flavour.
Perhaps a good food beer, but not particularly exciting on its own.

[4] Review by jonmoore from United Kingdom who has tried this beer once. (7/25/2006 5:51:09 PM)
"Bottle. Golden colour with huge white head. Sweet, grainy, fruity aroma. Similar for the taste with some hops and a light bitterness. Light and carbonated mouthfeel, but not in a particularly bad way. Not bad really."
