1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 DrnkMcDermott (2391) - Downers Grove, Illinois, USA - AUG 25, 2009
12 oz. bottle, "Born On 16APR09." Careening toward a Best Beer Month Ever!, I pick this up at the loose bottle rack at Jewel. Bright! clear yellow pour, spongy head. Skunky smell from 2 feet away as I pour. Clears up to give me a nose of fizzy corn, not much in the way of malt or hops. C’mon, at least a Schaefer Light can smell like a beer. Taste is just this side of lackluster. Adjunct still predominates, but it’s not sugary. Clean finish unlike other headache-inducing cheap beers. I can think of a few brews I’d turn down if this were available.

Clear, fizzy white head...Not much taste...No aroma...Light body with a good bit of carbonation...Not much of a beer for getting a buzz on...This stuff rocks...I could drink 20 and still be sober enough to get a stiffy and screw the lovely lady I pick up at the Twisted Spoke biker bar...It is what it is...It’s One dollar cans of Busch night baby...

Oh so very slightly more flavorful than the Light version, that’s pretty much where the difference lies, maybe just a hair better in body, but you’re looking at a beach beer here, something to refresh and rehydrate, I enjoy it on a different level, admittedly lower, level than I do good beer.

Oh boy. This is the reason when I started college I assumed I didn’t like beer - because of shit like this.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 wxman (889) - O’Fallon, Illinois, USA - AUG 8, 2009
Pours a pale golden with a decent white head at fist, which then fizzles away. It does leave a thin small bead head at the surface, though. Aroma is perfumy corn. Taste is thin, but smooth and sweet, pale malt mostly. This doesn’t taste bad, but it’s only purpose in life is college keggers and lawnmower refreshment.
1.4 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 egajdzis (4549) - Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 2, 2009
Poured a pale golden color with a small, white head that left trace amount of lacing on the glass. Aroma of corn sweetness, honey, citrus, and wet cardboard. Taste of more wet cardboard, grainy, toffee, and a bitter, metal finish. Better than I had expected, and probably the best outcome you can hope for during Group Therapy.
2.6 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 BusBoy (38) - , California, USA - JUL 28, 2009
Poured a light, bubbly, gold colour. A sweet smelling, honey and hops head that disappeared to lace in the glass. I have never had this beer and thought that the aroma was very European, just lacking in hops strength. Drinks smooth and sweet with a crisp, yet mellow finish. Very impressive for the Bud generic. The best AB has to offer in the Macro brews it makes. I am surprised. Open your narrow beer goggles and blind taste this brew. It will impress you.
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 yespr (20653) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - JUL 22, 2009
24 fl oz can. Pours clear and almost golden yellow with a small white head. Light cornish and vague metallic aroma. Flavour has the same in a dry blend with a light cornish and syrupy touch. Bitter and watery finish.
