COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Banquet Beer was born in the Rockies and has been a proud part of the American experience for generations, stubbornly refusing to compromise, since 1873.

Coors Banquet from a 12 oz. can. Again, my ratings are based on quality to type, not comparing American Lagers to Porters and Stouts. Great American Lager-type beer! Goes down super smooth. Nice malty overtones, with little bitterness. Light mouthfeel, but not super watery either. Very nice aftertaste, very "beer-ey". Of the American macros, this has got to be among the best. None of the rice flavor that Budweiser has, nor the corn overtones that Miller beers have. Overall a great session beer, lawnmower or BBQ beer. Definitely recommend for non-snobs.

Leftover bottle from a 6-pack that was used to learn to taste for diacetyl. There was very little aroma to this beer, but it looks great poured into a pilsner glass. The beer isn’t horrible, but it’s just not my style.

Aroma - faint malt; Appearance - golden, fluffy head, decent lacing; Taste - slightly sweet malt front, hint of bitterness in the back, mild finish; Palate - somewhat crisp, good body; Overall - classic American lager, nothing great yet much better than the rest.

I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to have a Coors Original. Anyway, pours a straw-yellow, light foam. Aroma is light...bread-like scents. Flavor, as you would expect. Light, dry grain flavor...corn and yeast. Not much else. No hops. I Definitely don’t recommend, but it could be worse.

Light straw color; Light to medium body; Aroma and flavor of hops, grain, and some malt; Average macro lager - nothing special.

Coors is coors what can I say? It does have its distinct flkavor from bud and miller and any huge brewery that produces for the masses. This is a great beer if a case is on sale and u have a party to go to or something.

Much better than its light brother. Less carbonation, better flavor, just as cheap.

Coors is like the other big breweries flagship beers. Bland, plain, not much in the beer. Great advertising, but you can’t drink advertising. Pours a clear light gold, about 1 finger of foam which has some staying power. Smell, bland some corn some hops but only if I really try to find them. Taste - bland boring, nothing much here, always has an unpleasant aftertaste for me. Mouthfeel - thin Drinkability - if your going out to have a few, you can drink these without getting in too much trouble.
