12 oz. bottle poured into a pint glass.

A - Two-finger head is white and creamy, fades pretty quickly but leaves some light lacing. Pour is a hazy gold with an orange tinge, nice effervescence rising through the center of the glass.

S - Metallic with some corn and a slight breadiness.

T - Pretty strange. A very metallic-tasting body with some belgian yeast and spicy hopsiness that is not exactly pleasant.

M - Moderate to heavy carbonation and a fairly light body make for a pretty fizzy experience.

D - Not too great unfortunately. I ended up pouring the last half out, the flavors don't really jive and the mouthfeel is uncomfortable.

Purchased from local grocer for $2

No bottling/BB date

Poured at fridge temp into a pokal glass

Pours an attractive clear golden with little to no head/lacing 3.25

Very faint malt on the nose and not much else, even as it warmed. 2.75

Fairly seltzer/soda like with not much flavor, perhaps a touch of hops, aaaand that's it. 1.75

Biting carbo, but not overwhelming, light and lightly dry finish. 3

Overall a pretty and good feeling beer that misses big on aroma and taste, but hey, they can't all be spectacular! 2.75

This is a refreshing beer. You can drink it anywhere and it blends in with spicy food. Overall, this Beer has the perfect malty taste and at the same time it gives a flavor of dried orange peels. This beer shall be marketed all over the world. Its richness in malt and flavor makes it so drinkable. Thank you.

Clear light golden appearance with sparse lazy film of surface head. Grass, arugula, herb, peat. Light to medium body, light carbonation. Some off flavors that I’m having a hard time identifying.

May 2003: (330 ml bottle, brewed by Shepherd Neame, England). I have probably used this beer to wash down some Indian food in England, had to buy it again in Norway to rate it without food (by special order, it's normally sold only in our Indian restarants). Besides being wet and thus fit to help you survive a hot curry, this beer has nothing "Indian" or any other quality that should put it on a beer geek's wish list. Light golden colour, low head, Heineken-like aroma, uninteresting flavour but at least a hint of bitterness. Typical mediocre lager, not good, but not as bad as I expected.
