"I'm guessing that my taste buds have matured a bit. I may have once thought this was pretty good, but it's "OK" at best. Thin, watery, grassy texture, aroma and flavor. I can't comment so much on the appearance as I was drinking it from the "oil can"."

"This is what it is. I wouldn't call this an ESB, more like an amber. A weak one too. Could use more malt. Been a while since I had a fosters lager oil can, so I bought both to sample and compare. Not premium by any means."

"MMMMM-yummm - ale with caramel color added, -- well it's ok, big hon-kin can, kind of a slightly sweet flavor with so, so bitter after tones. Best thing about it is that it's a lot of liquid and I get to check off yet another beer on Beer-Pal. "

"I felt like a real man when I put this can in my hand, but that's where the compliments stop for this beer. There's an uneasy poor. Smells sour. Looks watery. Virtually no head and even less taste. What a let down. I was really looking forward to this one. Oh yeah. Is this a bitter, a pale ale, a premium ale???? Make up your mind then make a beer. In a word, "Swill""

"A copper colored beer I decided to have with a wet steak sandwich. Huge frothy textured white head. Great hang time. As it settles big film presence is left behind. So far I am impressed with this Australian macrobrew. The metallic aroma in the nose starts the disappointment. Light, nearly watery, too much so for an ale. A sweet corny and grassy hops. I tried, I drank and won’t do it again. "
