Notes

Real CD from Aus
Appearance; golden yellow. Darker than straw
Bright white thin cap of foam. Low carb
Aroma: Neutral. No hops (maybe 1% hint of spicy hop note). Something vaguely fruity (apple?)
Mouthfeel: medium, mid tongue tingle
Flavor: 50/50 low malt / low general hop. Hop spicyness lingers after the sip
Overall: Would be great on the beach on a hot day. Crushable

VB: very similar. Extremely similar. Maybe slightly crisper, slightly less malty/more bitter, slightly brighter lighter mouthfeel
