Coors Original

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear, pale golden with a tiny, white head. Very discreet aroma - perhaps a whiff of corn. Thin body with these typical, lightly sweet notes of chicken fodder that seem to be the standard of American macro swill. No bitterness. This doesn’t taste foul or anything, it just hardly has any taste at all. 230307

This is a really sweet, bland brew. Yellow colour and low carbonation like all good budget swill. Drinks quick and painlessly with a good dose of corn in the finish. Yikes.

Once upon a time, i thought coors was good beer. this of course was when i was quite young and had watched ’smokey and the bandit.’ imagine my surprise when i got around to actually trying the beer -- i couldn’t understand what any of the fuss was about. coors is different from budweiser in that it’s rocky mountain pisswater, not midwestern pisswater.

Golden color, light weak aroma, watery taste, light body, light very watery finish.

Bottle. Pours a yellow colour with a small rather short lasting white bubbly head. Sweetish, grainy and bit malty aroma. The flavour is rather thin, sweet, grainy, bit malty and bit hoppy. Short finish. Boring.

On tap at the Coors Brewery Tour. I asked for their Original and was promptly corrected that I should order thier Banquet beer (they also bragged that this would be the freshest beer I would ever try). Poured a medium yellow color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas and tastes of grain and corn. Lively and fizzy body that made me want to hurl.

Hey, it’s beer. The best of the American pale lagers. That’s not really saying much, but Coors DID inspire Burt Reynolds and Jerry Reed to drive really fast from Georgia to Colorado and then back to Georgia again. Also, I can knock back about twelve of them without my mouth going sour like it does with AB and Miller products.

Below average American beer. Light yellow, fizzy beer with small head. Only drinkable if icy cold.
