This beer is actually called Dux lager and the bottle that i have just purchased recently states that its ABV is actually 5.0% not 4.0% but im pretty sure we are talking about the same lager anyways it pours a honey looking colour with average carbonation that leaves a head which resembles one of a macro beer head it doesnt look appealing at all really,it has a floral honeyish kinda smell to it almost like there has been some NZ sauvin hops used in this beer,and on taste i reckon im right it doesnt have much of a mouthfeel to it but it does finish sweet like sav hops do,this beer is definately not something i think i will be buying again and like someone below me stated i think its just a beer they produce to keep the macro fans happy.

A - A 500ml bottle poured into a 500ml pint glass a fairly clear medium golden colour with an inch or so of fluffy white head. The head slowly falls to a thin whisp and leaves some rings of lace down the glass.
S - Some very vauge sweet maltiness along with a grassy and slight cooked vegie aroma. The slightest floral hint.
T - A bit more malt sweetness in the taste along with a grassy hop character.
M - Light to medium bodied, very high carbonation.
D - This beer really isn't that bad. But certainly nothing to get excited about.
I guess it's the beer to appease macro/swill drinkers that happen to venture into one of their venues.

Appearance- A light clear yellow body, small bubbly carbonated head, light bubbled body.
Smell- A slight bit of caramel malt with the carbonation and cold serving temp obscuring anything else.
Taste-Mouthfeel: A mouthfeel driven lager, the malt is there and only the slightest hops. The full body combined slickness don't impress but hey its not tasteless or boring. Its better to be average then below average.
Drinkability- Its doesn't have complexity but, hey it goes down easy.
