Drank this while in Nassau.

Poured from bottle into a glass mug.

Color is an extremely light straw color. There is a thin head which quickly dissipates.

Aroma is "clean" with a slight almond nuttiness.

Taste is very light, but there is a bit of sweetness and a slight almond flavor. Virtually no hop character at all.

The beer is thin, but I hesitate to call it watery. While the flavor and aroma are quite light, this beer does have some worthwhile attributes. Being such a light beer, it is certainly an easy drinker. I couldn't see drinking this back in the states, but, given the warm Bahamian breeze and my broiled grouper, I found this cool, clean beer to be quite refreshing.

A: Pours a crystal clear light to medium yellow in color with some golden yellow highlights and moderate amounts of visible carbonation. The beer has a two finger tall fizzy white head that reduces to a patchy thin film covering about three quarters of the surface of the beer with a slightly thicker ring at the edges of the glass. Light to moderate amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate aromas of corn and grain adjunct malts with a light amount of sweetness.

T: Upfront this beer is all adjunct malt with moderate amounts of sweetness - I get quite a bit of corn with a slightly lesser amount of grain. Light hints of bitterness in the finish which fades fairly quickly.

M: Just shy of medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation.

O: This is one of the better American Adjunct Lagers that I have had from the Caribbean and would probably be really refreshing on a hot day by the beach (unfortunately it is cold and windy here today).
