Bottle. Poured a dark gold with a bright white head. The aroma had notes of raw potatoes and some black pepper spice. The taste has notes of cheap bologna and some old bell peppers. Drinkable, but not really pleasurable.

Another Winn-Dixie beer. This is not as good as the Amber but this is a good beer as well.

Sampled from the bottle. Pours a golden color with only a small amount of head. Little lacing. Slightly grainy with touches of malt and corn. Pretty simple but refreshing and drinkable. Kind of a ho hum Lager.

Golden pour with a tight white head. A little more of a hop presence in the nose than expected for a pale lager. Flavor is mainly sweet malt with a light hop bitterness in the finish. Better than your average macro, but nothing to write home about.
