Can: Chemical smell, somewhat buttery. Hazy yellow, thin head. Flavor is weak and artificial. Wow, just not very appealing. Worst beer I’ve had in quite some time.

12 ounce can from Beer Run shared at Slutfest 3, Richmond, VA, 4/21/12. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a medium sized frothy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of grassy hops and pale malts. The taste is grainy, sweet malts with some grassy hops. Medium bodied.

Sampled at Slutfest 3. Clear light yellow pour with small ring of white head. Corny sweet buttery and grainy. All around. But honestly, not that bad. For the style, I’d say it’s not that far off actually.

Neat looking can, but when the beer calls itself a "craft beer", it might be in trouble. Gave a six pack a whirl. It was fine, drinkable. Slightly sweeter than your normal lager. Drinkable, lawn-mowing beer.

Can while at tennis. This is a nice light brew. A light lager with a bit of sour, tart bitterness at the end. Worth it for the art work and the stealth can aspect.

PorterPounder (4106) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - MAR 10, 2012
Savannah, Ga - Habersham Beverage Warehouse - 12 oz can. Medium golden pour, white bubbly head. Neutral aroma with some hints of vanilla. Flavor has a touch of the same vanilla notes with some butterscotch and a back end full of yeast. Odd flavor. Crisp mouthfeel.

This was a tough one pretty can had to try it. Perhaps its a bit old don;t think that would matter it does not taste skunky. Open it pour it decent head and lacing. First sip reminds me of something cheap like Big flats which was actually decent for what it was (similar to Pabst). Pale cloudy at first light yellow color. Wierd Bitter finish more like a Pale Ale finish which is not my fav style of beer. Another one for the beer list but not one I would want to down again. This makes me miss a Budweiser. Somewhere between a regular lager and a Pale ale here. Drinkable thats about it. A regular beer. Not one of the better ones.

Pours a clear golden straw color with a finger of soapy white head. A very sweet and grainy aroma to the beer. Almost sugary with very little hop or yeast aromas like you might expect from a half decent lager. Just a lot of sweetness. The flavor is a bit bland and watery, despite the sweet aroma. It still is sweet, but not cloyingly so, which I was somewhat anticipating. Not too much really going on, honestly. The body is light and the carbonation is moderate.

On tap at Int’l Great Beer Expo. The aroma is like a malt liquor, ot, fusels, grass, spicy. The flavor is the exact same. The appearncde is a clear, very pale gold color, white head. The finish is nobel hops, boozy. Sucks.
