330ml can from Beers of Europe (£3.29):
Very clear straw coloured, basically water with an golden tinge & a lot of bubbles through the body; the head is bubbly white, 1cm tall & holding well with a foamy surface at least. Skunky & slightly sweet on the nose, mainly corn & cheap cereal adjuncts, straw & not much else; basic without offending but still poor. It's a very basic taste too, corn, earthy hops & cereal - just a run of the mill macro pale but thankfully a little better than the nose. The body is light but crisp & well carbonated, it seems pretty sessionable too without being that exciting.

Crystal clear yellow body. Good two finger head. Aroma slightly metallic, cream crackers. Taste is quite a full malty character, a bit of corn syrup and grains then a slightly bitter follow through. Easy on the palate and finishes quite crisp. Overall a solid fullish lager. I quite liked it.

Very refreshing, solid but unexciting taste. If you're flying Qantas economy class, ask for a can of this - it will be the highlight of your meal.
