Clear yellow with a small head, little lacing to speak of. Subtle malt sweetness on the nose and palate, with a hint of hops if you really look for it. Very bland, but not quite offensive as some macros tend to be.

One more pale lager down the tubes. Enjoyed while watching my Raiders get dismantled by the Jets. Aroma is lightly sweetened with malt. Pretty pedestrian but it could have been worse. Body is a golden yellow color, frothy 2" head on the pour which melted very quickly. Flavor has some really subtle malt notes but that’s really about it. Very plain jane. It kinda works for it though, as it was easy to drink. Still, forgettable though.

12oz bottle into a lager glass. Pours yellow-brown like dehydrated urine with a tiny fizzy white head that goes away immediately. Aroma and flavor are quite light except for some hints of sweetness from malt and it’s really a stretch to find some hop in this. Finishes a bit dry and leaves you wishing for better.

bottle, pours light pale gold with a tin white head. Aroma is thin with hop and pale malt. Flavor is thin and watery with hints at hop bitterness, but overall dissapointing.

Bottle: Came in a Sample Pack from bev and More, good buy, you get a quick glimpse of several brewers. But most are avg beers at best. A clean straight forward Pale, refreshing thirst quenching. Unoffensive.

Pretty crappy, but could be worse. Why does this show up in Winn Dixie stores I wonder? Faint taste of watery amber malts. No hops, lightly sweet, watery finish. Not that drinkable, even as a light beer. I think I like budweiser better.

This sparkly yellow beer poured with a generous white head and a faint malt aroma. There is a watery pale malt flavor and very little else.
