Bottle. Clear, light amber. Very little head.
Smells malty and grainy. Some caramel present.
Quite sweet from the toffee like malt yet ends with some bitterness.
Feels thin as expected. Fizzy.
Not as poor as I assumed. The extra malt tastes a bit strange for this style of LA lager.

330ml bottle from Tesco (£1.12):
Light, translucent caramel with a bubbly white head about 3cm tall. Malty with caramel & a light sweetness on the nose. The taste is particularly strong with the malts, more caramel sweetness to with a lingering malt bitterness at the end. It's light without being thin but the malt bitterness is an odd one that's a little overdone for me.
