Look: Hazy golden-straw color. No head - bubbles more like a soft drink. Looks like a ginger ale.
Smell: Slight yeast and resin. Swirling the glass didn't kick up anything more.
Taste: Wet cardboard - not offensive, but not expected. Slightly sour that lasts into the aftertaste. Mild grapefruit that shows up more in the aftertaste. Very mild bitters that build in a long aftertaste. General impression is of a new experimental soft drink - wood pulp ale?
Feel: Carbonation level is much more like a soft drink - aggressive bubbles that quickly collapse. The bitters are somewhat astringent long after swallowing.
Overall: There is nothing exceptional either pro or con. Rather boring, although the wet cardboard flavor is unique. The low alcohol content means you could drink these for hours, but there is no reason to do so.
