Part of sampler at brewpub. Pours clear golden with white head. Aromas of cereal grains. Flavor was sweet corn and cereal. Pretty drinkable brew and good substitute for a macro.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Pastor (776) - Skowhegan, Maine, USA - JUN 13, 2010
I poured it into a pills glass and it produced a good two finger white head that settled to a thick lace across the glass the body was a crystal clear pale yellow in color ( nice looking beer)
I got aromas of bready yeast with some light citric hops. While the mouthfeel is light and crisp with great carbonation.
The flavor of the brew is pale malts sweetness with a light hop dryness in the end . It is a easy drinking brew a step above BMC. It realy reminded me of a PBR or a Narragansett
Serving type: bottle

not so good, tastes like bitter seltzer. Actually, while we were drinking it my buddy and I thought it might just be miller lite with a different label to sell in columbus, OH where there is a budweiser plant...maybe?
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 ben4321 (2982) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - JAN 17, 2010
Location: 12 oz bottle shared by a friend, 1/15/10
Aroma: Corn, a drop of citrus, I could add other stuff but I’d be fibbing, there’s not much going on with the nose on this one, not that I was surprised, it was too be expected
Appearance: Fizzy yellow water, fizzy white head
Flavor: Taste is water, cereal, corn, and a lot more water
Palate: As watery as it was, I’ll give it a (small) bump becuase it’s clean
Overall Impression:
When we were drinking this, someone actually commented that it tasted like Miller Lite with a different label. That’s not a bad description in as much as Miller Lite tastes like water and looks like yellow water. Maybe it seemed worse to me because it was stuck between some really good beers, but this stuff was just not good. From my notes: "Worked as a nice palate cleanser, I wanted some water but was too lazy to stand up and walk to the kitchen, this beer was a perfect substitute." That was apparently the nicest thing I had to say about it. Let’s move along...

Bottle - Poured a pale yellow with small fading head. Fizzy, corn and weepy. Pale and watery, bit dry in the finish.
3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20 garrison (717) - Cin. city, Ohio, USA - SEP 17, 2009
From a twelve ounce bottle (out of a $10.49 twelve pack) purchased at "Keller’s IGA" in Cincinnati, Ohio - This one poured an orange-hued brew with a tall, rapidly-fading white foam head and a very grassy aroma. Tastewise, this is very much like an early ’fifties medium bodied all grain USA lager, with a very pleasant hops finish. I like it!
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 Capa (1905) - Manama, BAHRAIN - SEP 16, 2009
Way too soft and sweet sweet malts. Could use a bit more in the hop department to crisp it up a touch. It’s just too syrupy for me.

This beer offended my palate. The flavor was heavy on funk and dust and coppery water. Mouthfeel of syrup. ICK
3.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 fromred2green (187) - , Ohio, USA - FEB 11, 2009
Bottle. First impression: quite sweet, cereal flavor. Would be a great beer for relaxing in the shade during summertime. Excellent carbonation, excellent taste. Will definitely buy again, although it can be pricey.
2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 illinismitty (2270) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - DEC 31, 2008
Bottle from Shigadeyo. Maumee Bay? Hmmm. I used to date one of the owner’s daughters. Pours golden amber with a white head. Aroma of cream corn and sweet cereal grains. Light bodied with average carbonation. Flavor of pale malts, corny adjuncts, and cereal with lots of sweetness. Some detectable spicy hops. Clean finish. Typical Pale Lager here. Tastes like a sweeter heineken with a tad more body. Meh
