Ernest (4481), Boulder, Colorado, USA Apr 8, 2005 Can.
Head is initially small, frothy, white, mostly diminishing.
Body is clear light yellow.
Aroma is trace malt (cereal/grain), with a note of artificial cherry/berries, hint of DMS.
Flavor is heavily sweet, moderately acidic.
Finish is moderately sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter.
Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.
Barely a hint that this is beer...very soda pop like. Not repulsive so much as artificially sugary sweet (and sour). Kinda like those nasty Ace ciders. Glad this was free. brewblackhole (1367), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA Apr 8, 2005 Very clear,light yellow,has an odd fruit tea aroma, fruity but dry tasteNot as awful as I expected,but I wouldn’tet it again. I got this sample because a friend bought some opened a can took a sip or two and gave the rest to the fishes of Lake Michigan Kasteelfreak (341), Fallbrook, California, USA Apr 6, 2005 Well the really din’t ry to make it taste like beer. It tastes more like cider with Red Bull in it. I don’t think it tastes bad; it just doesn’t taste like beer. HarmonKill-a-Brew (316), Wilmar, Arkansas, USA Apr 4, 2005 I love beer and I love energy drinks, so I badly wanted this to be good, but... YUCK! What the hell were they thinking??? Tasted like a half and half made with regular bud and red bull energy drink. If it had tasted like an energy drink, fine... it might have been a decent beverage. If it had tasted like beer (yes even bud) great, even better... but instead it tastes like the two mixed together and is awful... maybe the worst beer I have ever had. dirtymike (2018), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Mar 29, 2005 Straw color with a small white head. Aroma is fruity with a sweet tart character-cherries. Flavor is of tart cherries,sweet like candy. Sham (1846), Seattle, Washington, USA Mar 28, 2005 Pale gold with no head or lace. Nose is slightly hoppy and malty, but mostly ginseng comes through. Sweet flavors of ginseng with a small malt back. Cloying palate with a sweet ginseng finish, but not as bad as I thought it would be. RAYBOY01 (1813), Chicago, Illinois, USA Mar 19, 2005 Yo! Dis am da hip-hop geezer what am be’s drinking this shite and it shonuff am some bad shite! No really, I mean it’s really, really bad. It smells like a chemistry experiment gone awry! It looks like electric Kool-aid! It tastes like Lick-m-Aid! But as Corny ahead of me points out: Thank god it’s only 10oz. I still gave it a 4 overall because I got all hopped-up and loopy on the guarana, probably! Cornfield (4892), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA Mar 18, 2005 What a noxious concoction! This is the latest joke from A-B, and I’m admiring their warped sense of humor. Poured from the can, it looks like Jever (a GREAT pils), pale yellow with a tall white head. But it smells like fruit gone bad. I give it two points on flavor although it’s horrendous, and that’s because it’s originally horrendous. Lreaves a sour taste in the mouth. Praise be, it comes in a ten ounce can.
