*** Notice*** The bottle design has changed to a bright Winnie-the-pooh yellow label.
A - Pours an unusual color. It's like white wine with a bit of iodine stirred in. Zero head. Zero lacing.
S - Yep, grape soda and honey. Not unpleasant and not beer-like at all.
T - Wow. Bitter past-date beer flavor with grape-seed oil. This one will go down the drain.
M - Stale club soda.
D - My first non-alcohol beer in years and I now remember why. It's bad. Real bad. A 'D' is generous.

This beer looks like gold-colored seltzer water, with a quick rising and falling big-bubbled head. Afterwards, it looks more like beer. The smell is grapey and refreshing.
The taste is extremely thin, and I'm not sure if this could really pass for beer. Watery, with a seltzer aftertaste. I have to be frank and admit I expected more hops from this beer called "hoppy". They're there--and somehwhat noticeable as the only taste besides water--but I wanted more.
This is beer soda, or beer soda water.

Great for a non-alcohol beer. Mediocre as a beverage. Bland as a beer. Hoppy! it lives up to its name. Bright yellow color, wait, what happened to the head? No malt flavor. Thin extremely carbonated mouthfeel. Not really encouraged to drink up. Then again, the average swill does not make me what to drink up too.
The word is that you are supposed to add Japanese vodka (shochu) to this to give it a punch.
