Bottle. Head is initially small, fizzy, white, fully diminishing. Body is clear medium yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (grain/husks), trace hops (herbs), with notes of DMS, dead fish, and soiled mattress. Flavor is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly to moderately bitter, slightly husky/unclean. Light to medium body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation. Ahem.

10/25/11. 12oz bottle. Clear golden pour with a small fluffy off-white head that fades but sticks a bit. Creamy creamed corn aroma that reeks of corn chips and sweet sugar. Slightly sweet flavor with corn chips, metal, and green apples. Bleeech.

Pours golden with thin, wispy head and some lacing. Traditional lager notes of hay and grass. Balanced, subdued taste.

12 oz. bottle from Plaza Liquors - Pours a crystal clear golden color with a 2/3 finger thick white head. Faint spotty lacing. Aroma is herbal hops and a bit of skunk. I kinda like it. Flavor is lightly sweetened malt and light herbal hops. Again, I kinda like it. No unpleasant lingering aftertaste. Medium body. This is a decent Pale Lager.

This is a basic lager, fresh tasting and clean with no offensive attributes. A killer package to boot. A decent fizzy lager to have in the ice chest for your friends.

Bottle pours yellow gold with a soapy white head, and leaves a slight amount of lacing. Aroma is skunky corn with an underlying honey sweetness. Flavor shows basically the same. Body is light and the carbonation is fair. This could have possibly been ok if it wasn’t for the clear bottle.

12 ounce bottle from Inari Wines in Bristol, VA. Pours a clear pale golden color... well, given the clear bottle you can see exactly the color in the picture. Medium frothy head, fair head retention and lacing. Aroma of skunk, corn and some grainy notes. Taste is grain, corn, green bananas and an acrid, chemical note. Thin bodied. Typical.

Smells skunky, looks cheap, not enough head, tasteless - pretty much the same as a whorehouse. Fortunately, you can still get a thrill from the alcohol - but you will need the power of lemon(s). Harness that power. Harness it.

Citrusy aroma, sparkling golden appearance, balanced taste, with a finish not too sweet and not too bitter. Profoundly better than Corona, better than Landshark, up there with Amstel Bright and Carib in this category

Bottle as shown. Pours a clear golden with a small frothy white head that diminishes quickly leaves sticky lacing along the glass.The aroma is a skunky corn malt. Thin mouthfeel with a sweet corn malt and skunk flavor. Not much going on with this one.

Yellow-gold with a modest head and some lacings. Slightly sweet fruity aroma. Tastes very similar to most American pale lagers. Has a certain crispness to it which I enjoyed. No skunkiness or bad flavors detected. Cool looking bottle.
