yemenmocha (344), Glendale, Arizona, USA May 1, 2009 Review is for the COLD ACTIVATED can, not the regular one, just in case there is a resulting difference on the palate.
Pours very pale golden color, transparent, with short lived white head.
Nose is light corn with a faint suggestion of Sprite soda-pop.
Palate is very light bodied, fizzy, faint grain and corn flavors (very, very light in flavor), and a subtle sweetness from the grain. Minimal hops.
Not as watery as Budweiser, but still very watery. Only mildly offensive as an adjunct lager.
savnac (394), Palmer, Alaska, USA Apr 29, 2009 Can of course. A great example of the Banquet Beer style. Wait a minute what the heck is Banquet Beer. Better than most in this class, but still pretty weak. Dredd (484), Ormond, Australia Apr 24, 2009 Nothing great to report on this one, just a regular Macro brew. Nothing to get too excited about here..... AndrewKitna (21), Fortuna, California, USA Apr 20, 2009 Damned decent, run-o-the-mill beer. Cheap and it fills you up. Cant beat Coors or many of its lesser parts. potbeercollege (254), Boulder, Colorado, USA Apr 16, 2009 Must be a cheap Banquet! This beer is alright at best. Satisfying for cheap afternoon baseball watching beers but nothing to think about or cherish. Colored like a straw hat with little to no head... none out of the bottle , a little if on tap. Much better on tap. Decent flavor that floats in water! beerchugger (285), Colorado, USA Apr 13, 2009 Updated: Apr 18, 2009Typical macro. Light yellow straw color with no head. Pretty ok grain flavor amidst the water. Just a very average/typical macro. Nothing great. Would only buy it if there was nothing else to buy. TheHulk (106), Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada Apr 10, 2009 You really have to try to find the aroma, it’s not too obvious. It’s so clear you could read a book through it, which is a selling feature when you want to drink the whole case, but if your just having one or two. The flavour is acutally kind of ok, I expect it to taste really cheap or grassy, but it is smooth and ... crisp? The flavour isn’t too strong in any dimention but it is also short-lived. There is virtually no palate, don’t wan’t a funny aftertase if you’re getting wasted in the sun! Too bad we can’t acutally buy this in Canada, my buddies parents brought us some from the states. It would make a great camping beer. Cole (266), , Alberta, Canada Apr 10, 2009 Looks like any pale commercial lager. Clear and yellow. Sweet skunky aroma, not much going on. . Flavour of corn and cardboard. mouth feel is Smooth and crisp. Not bad for what it is. I would drink it over most canadian pale lager.
