look: 3.75 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

16oz tallboy can poured into a pint glass. Cryptic freshness code on the bottom of the can makes no sense to me.

A: Dull straw color. Hazy. Two fingers of rocky, bubbly white head retains surprisingly well, kept alive and crackling by a steady stream of carbonation. A thin foamy blanket of lacing coats the glass. Gotta dock it for the haze, but beyond that it looks good.

S: Bready barley malt impression, slight creaminess, Shy herbal/grassy hop character. Very light, vague fruitiness.

T: Sweet grain, bready, honeyed dough. Corny. Restrained grassy hops. Abrupt bready finish.

M: Light in body, very creamy, moderate scubbing carbonation.

O: Advertised as an 'Australian style premium lager, ' but if you're astute, you'll see that it's brewed in Memphis, TN. It is what it is though, and it isn't the worst I've ever had. It at least does have a good head.

Best before 7/2014.

Pours a hazy light orange with a foamy white head that settles to a film on top of the beer. Tiny patches of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, grain, slight herbal hops, and a mild sour aroma. Taste is much the same with sour, metallic, and grainy flavors on the finish. There is a very mild amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a low level of carbonation with a almost flat and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a poor beer that seems more like a poorly done Berliner Weissbier than any sort of even halfway decent lager.

This is from a 16 oz can
A- This beer is poured into a glass mug. Has a nice golden-amber color. One and a half fingers of head. It's clear with some bubbles streaming up. The head looks good. Not much lacing.

S- It has a bready malty smell with some noticeable hop presence.

T- Bready with malts and some hops to even it out. A dull hop taste at the end kind of ruins it a little, it's not the refreshing hop taste. More like an old dank hop taste.

M- Clean and pretty light. Seems to be lacking carbonation.

O- Overall, I think this is a good beer.

A sort of tangy stale sour aroma. Pillowy head lingers. Hops are very subtle, almost unnoticeable. The carbonation is decent. Taste is poor. Earthy and barnyard like, and very light, reminiscent of coors light. Overall to me this is very flavorless and boring. Hard to rate as nothing at all stands out.
