Looked and poured a very lager like yellow. Very little head to speak of. Smell of slight skunk probably due to the green bottle syndrome. Slight hint of malt followed by sharp bite from the hops. Finishes quite clean and would make a nice summer time lager served cold if you could find a fresh pack.

Had this a few times in Canada but decided to pick up a 750mL since it was cheap. From notes.

A - Poured very light golden straw with good carbonation, a two finger white head that was gone fast, and bright. Weak lace was left with a film of retention.

S - Grain, corn, sugar.

T - Sugar, grain, plain and inoffensive, yet not overly tasty.

M - Good carbonation, light to medium body, sweet then slightly dry in the finish.

O/D - Pretty clean and strandard for a macro lager. Lacks the corny grossness that alot carry with them. Cheap and inoffensive.

A small white head quickly dies leaving barely a lacing at all above a clear golden colored beer.

This beer has a big sour lemony citrus aroma.

Sour citrus taste mostly lemons with a touch of graininess.

A very light aftertaste with some lemony tones.

This beer seems to remind me of a lesser quality Budweiser.

Steinlager Classic has a thin, white head and a clear, bubbly, golden appearance. Lacing is almost nonexistent. The aroma has an initial skunk whiff upon pouring the beer, but this goes right away. What one encounters is a sweet, lightly-toasted barley malt, a nice hop bitterness, and some cracker. Mouthfeel is light to medium, and Steinlager finishes crisp and refreshing. Drinkability is astronomical. Overall, this is quite nice.
