1.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
"Beer" #9 RBSG 06. Thanks to Maniac for making sure I had the chance to try this. Pale fizzy yellow. No aroma. Literally none. Almost no flavor as well, just slight corn. Really better than it is given credit for. Or perhaps my palate was fatigued and I was unable to appreciate the subtle nature of the vileness. Had trouble getting people to try this one. Excellent for rinsing out the glass. Whaleman commented that there was still a drop of the Upstream Barleywine in his glass when he poured the Busch, and the single drop of Upstream came clear through in the aroma. Ultimately, I’ve had far worse, as this wasn’t aggressively bad. There was just literally nothing there.

Rating #1500 12 oz. can courtesy of Bockyhorsey - That’s right boys and girls. It’s time to rate Arizona’s favorite milestone beer and my 1st, probably last, low alcohol beer. Pours a crystal clear golden color with a one and a half finger thick white head. Light spotty lacing. Aroma is your typical grain and herbal hops. The flavor is.... Ah hell, this beer(?) just plain SUCKS. Which makes it perfect for #1500! If you didn’t have to drink it, it would be OK. Anyways, thanks (I think) to Bill for hooking me up.
0.6 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20
Can shared with tupalev - courtesy of biegaman. Actually looks OK at first - nice golden colour with a large white head - but the head quickly disappears to a thin, scummy layer. Aroma of rotting vegetables and chicken fat - ugh! Body is sticky and greasy. Flavour tastes like slightly rancid chicken stock mixed with the water that corn has been boiled in. Absolutely vile.
1.2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20
UPDATED: JUL 13, 2008 # 1900 Can at Bockyhorsey’s Bocky Bash on 7-5-08. Aroma of grain. Yellow body with white head. Just the standard grain flavor you would find in swill. Bought mainly for around the house when my dad visits but someone hadn’t rated a n/a beer so had to bust it out.
0.8 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 2/20
UPDATED: OCT 24, 2010 Can from Kegs & Barrels in Plano, TX. Pours light straw yellow, white fizzy head. Aroma of corn with signs of grain. Flavor is very much the same. Mouthfeel is light body, very watery and over carbonation.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear light gold with a tall frothy white head.
Sweet corn aroma.
Little flavor, some faint grainyness.
Cold wet.
As good as a good cold glass of water.
0.8 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20
I saw this in a cooler full of left overs at a party and pocketed a can to see if it was in fact as bad as its reputation. Very pale straw color with a white head so fizzy I can hear it. The nose really smells like a cat pissed on a roll of pennies. Oh this is really bad. Corny, metallic, thin, and something chemical. I don’t know why people chose to drink this. This is truely awful beer.
0.9 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
Can, from the bottom of NachlamSie’s refrigerator. Pours piss gold with fast-fading white head. The aroma is very, very offensive-- socks, rotting vegetables, trash in general, scummy pond water. It was all I could do to make myself drink it after the aroma. Flavor is paper, carbonic, some stale lemon. Leaves a really weird aftertaste. Not good. Down the drain.
