Poured from a 120z green bottle.straw yellow with a bit of foam and very little aroma. Has a bit of a skunky taste mixed with caramel. It’s nothing special nor memorable.

A Mexican beer that needs no lime. Very tasty when served ice cold. Definitely not your average pale yellow beer from Mexico. Goes very well with a spicy meal on a hot summer day.

Comes out of the tap a clear amber-yellow with a rather typical white head. Aroma is crisp, strong and malty; I picked up a whiff of lime but this probably came from the obligatory lime wedge on the glass. Flavor is crisp, malty and just a little yeasty. The lively and fizzy texture leaves a slightly yeasty finish.

From bottle, hard to tell color and foam. Got lime in it, so taste is also hard to tell. Good for drinking in warm climate, but not a beer for handcrafted beer lovers. (Houston 201201)

Poured a thin layer of head and quickly went away. Has a light golden appearance. Lacing is ok. Has that skunky, wheats and grains aroma. Flavour is of light hops and well, not much else really. Maybe corn, grains. Seems to be headed in the swill category, but actually much better.

Wow... just realized having one of these, that I had never rated it. Pours a semi-pale golden colour with a white head that leave decent dirty lace. Malty nose with some chemical hops. Medium-thin mouthfeel and watery. Malty taste as well with what seems like corn in the finish. Nothing really offensive, but nothing really great. I seem to recall the amber being a bit better.

pours a light amber color with a small head that dissipated quickly. The aroma is bland but a little yeasty. The taste is watery, beer-like flavor, finished off with the bitterness of a lager. Not much presence in the way of hops. The mouthfeel is extremely light, watery, and carbonated. Very easy to drink with hot spicy food, especially after the first couple of sips.

Rerate, 330 ml green bottle, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4.5%. Pale golden colour, moderate white head. The aroma has maize and some fruit, not unpleasant. The flavour is (well, what flavour?) not offensive, at least when the beer is ice cold. Some "freshness" made it quite drinkable with pizza, and if that is your only ambition, it should work well. The beer enthusiast will of course look for more flavourful beers.

Easy to drink and not as horrible for me as for some. Pale yellow, not much head to speak of. Not something I will seek out, but wouldn't turn it down if there was nothing else available.

I dunno if I have 150 characters to describe how terrible this crap was. The amber was better - slightly. For one thing it smells like dirty feet. Out of the glass was a little better than straight out of the bottle but not much better. Stay thristy my friends indeed cause you'll need something else after drinking this.
