Simonds Farsons Cisk's XS Cisk Extra Lage

A Maltese beer? Had to buy it.

Pours a slightly amber yellow with a head that never really forms, despite pretty strong carbonation. Smells like white grape juice.

Huh. Decent body, which must be what the "extra" is about. And I didn't notice before, but it has 9% ABV, but bites like it's higher. Not very subtle. Sickly sweet malt and a cardboard bitterness that only comes out when the rest of the flavors thankfully fade away.

Not a good beer.
