3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours orange gold with a creamy white head. Bold bready aroma. Med body. Flavor is bready with some nobel hop flavor. More hop than most American macros, so our predecessors were good at using hop. But it’s not all that hoppy. Worth the try to allegedly connect with a bygone era.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle (odd shape). with a best before of May 27 2013. Pours with a clear, dark (very dark) golden hue, not quite orange or bronze, but a very burnt yellow, medium sized white head. Aromas are extremely clean. Only a malt presence, bready, biscuity, corn, toast. Nothing else. Nothing offensive at all, as much as ones searches, just a boring, malty medium dark lager. Very, very clean. Medium sweet biscuit, cheap malt, corn, biscuit, low butter. Very clean, but rounded. Honestly, boring, but technically very sound. A bit too sweet for my tastes. Mild bitterness, slightly supportive, but a malty balance. In no way undrinkable. Overall, very tea like and malty sweet, with no hops. Its really not a bad beer, just boring and bland. Its Coors, and it is better than most of their products, but nothing new. They can brew a good beer, and this might be it. It is what it is: a very clean, precise and mediocre lager.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a clear golden color with a short lived white head. Nose is fairly typical macro lager aroma of sweet grain/cereal, light esters, and minimal hops. A slight corn note is present. The flavor is sweet grain, minimal biscuit qualities, and no hops to speak of. A touch watery, some yeast and mild fruit esters. That’s pretty much it. Nothing wrong with it, just nothing all that great about it.
