I must confess to not being Greene King's biggest fan. A number of their beers taste subtly off, and this is no exception. It has a slightly fruity air when one desires a crisp finish. It is almost as though they took a failed pale ale recipe and brewed it lager fashion, which, on second thought, may well be the case. That is not to say that it wasn't drinkable, It was, and my burger was sped down my throat by its presence. To add to its not terribly lagerish taste, it also lacks fizz for a traditional lager. For me, this is not a problem, rather, a point in its favor, but others will no doubt disagree. Were I served this instead of a mass produced canned lager, I would be ecstatic, but put up against the best the world can offer, it simply doesn't measure up. 6/10
