375ml bottle at Brisbane Airport. Nose is vegetables and metal. Taste is cold water, slight hops. Horrible aftertaste-all metallic spritz. Under no circumstance allow this beer to get warm.

Bottle 37,5 cl. Pours clear golden with a white head. Aroma of malt and a hint of hops. The usual sweet tasting pale lager with just a litte bitterness in the end. Watery and pretty tasteless.

Yuck. Multiple Australian award winner you say? I still say yuck. This beer had all the attributes of a North American macro lager. Pale gold, clear, huge white cap that lasted a blink of an eye. Aroma of grains and vomit. Grainy bitter taste. A waste of $2

Can from the LCBO, says 4.6% and VB only. Pours a medium-light golden colour with a big frothy white cap, decent retention and dirty lacing. Mass commercial beer smell of chemical malt and corn. Crisp and light-bodied mouthfeel. Hints of grass are found in the taste, which makes this one at least refreshing, but pretty boring overall like most mass lagers.

The beer poured a translucent reddish-gold with no cap. The aroma was sour malt, nuts, and metal. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with very little carbonation. The flavour was gross. Musky malt, sour, and acidic.

Can sampled cold and sipped as it warmed to 50DegF Poured a clear gold liquid in the glass, must give a hard pour to get a 1 finger rocky cap, even that vanishes quickly and laces weakly. Aroma is faint but as it warms you get cane sugar sweetness, some hop grassiness..overall smells like sweet wet cardboard...totally over processed sterile extract brew smell. Weak thin body, virtually no lager character. Sweetish with weak husk-graininess and a whack of rough phenolic-sulfury-acidic green beer tastes, watery weak finish some hop after taste from POringwood hops (extract?). Overall a cheap, over processed adjunct laden beverage that approximates beer flavor. I’m told ’VB’ stand for ’vomiting bogans’ in Oz vernacular...seems like the demographic this weak green piss would appeal to.

bought the canned version of this. was surprised it was not skunky even though it was brewed six months ago. aroma was a little sweet like fosters. golden color with a bubbly head with a good amount of lacing. it goes down smoothly. tasted creamy with a good balance of sweetness and bitterness. a pleasant and drinkable beer.

Not a bad beer, but pretty weak when it came to overall flavor. It is a good beer to drink when you plan to have more than 6 and are strapped for cash. Also good to drink with Australians in pubs across Australia. Very fun

I was a little disappointed; I found it at every pub down under and it seemed like the Coors Light (ugh...) of Australia. It was a decent beer and I thoroughly enjoyed, just not as good a flavor as I had expected. Nice and smooth and as long as its cold, I'll drink it.
