2.15/5  rDev -18.6%
look: 2.5 | smell: 1.25 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 2.25

This was dirt-cheap, and it shows in the quality. It smells almost exclusively soapy. With that said, I found the taste/drinkability of this surprisingly mediocre considering the awful smell. It's bordering on sour, but with some well hidden malty sweetness.

This is not a good beer, but considering how taken aback I was by the smell it feels like the beer that had to work really hard to achieve a rating of 2.15. My emotional reaction to this beer is thus fairly positive, even though at the end of the day it is still a quite disastrous beer.
