16 oz can. Pours a clear light liquid gold with a medium white head. Aroma of corn and straw, Taste of corn, grains and sugar. Not a bad everyday brew.

2009 Can - Pours pale clear yellow with a large white head...aroma is sweet corn and metal...flavour is similar, I am amazed at how sweet it tastes to me now, it never did before when macros were my staple in college...corn adjuncts and sugar is all I get, maybe some light grain, but not enough to lead me to believe this is anything other than adult koolaid...while this does seem like heaven after drinking Becks Light, the other half of my brain knows it’s pure shit...at least some BMC actually has passable flavour (i’m looking at you PBR)...this however does not...

Another macro-manufactured swill; at least it isn’t the worst stuff out there. What can I say, colour, head (short-lived), aroma and taste are all nondescript. I remember the aura of Coors when it was only available in a few states and was transported in refridgerated trucks. How could it not be great? Well, I was fooled big time. Such a disappointment. Okay to drink, if you’re going for a swill.

See a beer drinker like me has to have two sides. There is the side that loves the strong stouts and micros and then there is the side that is drinking with buddies at the beach or local beer tent. Yes Coors may not be a great beer, but it is a great beer among crap. I would take this over a Bud or a Miller any day of the week. Pours clear, little head, little aroma, and little flavor but is still the common man beer of choice.

12 oz can. Pours a clear dark yellow color with white foamy head. Nose is actually straw and decently malty. Palate is on the thin side of course. Flavor is a nice, hefty sweet malt note, kinda fake but better then anticipated. Actually not as bad as I thought goign in.

As far as cheap beer goes this one is not that bad, yeah it aroma isn’t great. its pretty heavily carbonated and its obvious they use cheap hops and barely when brewing, but it is what it is, a cheap brew that’s not to bad when nothing else is available or the wallets looking a little thin.

You can drink it and it will do the job just like any other beer. If I had a choice I would not drink it.

I actually don’t see this one a whole lot in the midwest, where A-B and Miller dominate the shelves. Light yellow pour, foamy white head, heavy carbonation. Bland. If I’m getting something this devoid of character, I’d probably save a few carbs and get a light beer.
