Bottle from Half Time. Who touts their beer as having "corn sweetness"? Pours dishwater gold with a slight white head. Corn aroma. Med minus body. There’s a strange, but definite bitter, but there’s this not so great sweet aspect. Finish is sweetish with herbal hop. Very different.

Bottle. Pours straw yellow with fizzy white head. Not much aroma to speak of and flavor is that of an every day adjunct lager with very balanced hop. Wouldn’t be a bad beer to have by the pool. Not offensive in anyway, it is what it is.

Bottle - piss yellow in color, very little head and a slight corn aroma. Has a slight metallic taste to it and a water thin body.

Don’t look at me, I think these people are completely nuts .. . Pours a light yellow gold .. light foam .. very light lacing, if any .. . some slick corn and hay .. . clean stuff, nothing offensive at all but really has almost no defined flavour or bitterness .. . . He’s such a good baby, we gave him some french bread pizza- put him right out...

bottle, yellow in color with thin foam, aroma and flavor of a plain lager, not much else, corny finish

(draft at CO state fair Foamfest, 8/28/10). Clear gold color. Small white head. Light sweet malt aroma and flavor. Avg duration. Smooth finish. Thin/slick texture. Moderate carbonation. Spare lacing.

Sampler at Brewers Rendezvous. Pours a huge fluffy white head, over a clear yellow body.....nose is minimal cereal, light hint of hops....taste is minimal cereal and very light hops....mouth feel watery, carbonation high. This is very light, with minimal flavor, and little to recommend it. BJCP 5/3/8/4/4

Clear light yellow with a smallish white head. Almost no aroma, but what little I could pick up on was corn and earthy malt. Taste was bland sweet lager, as if it’s trying to fit a stereotype. Corn, and bland metallic-ish malt. Lame.

TPSA -- so new it wasn’t available yet in stores. Pours very, very pale with not much head. Nose is clean but faint, with some sweet notes. There’s a lot of bitterness on the front, but it turns lightly sweet with tropical fruit notes. Finish is a bit muddy.

Light golden color, medium sized head, big bubbles, fairly quickly diminishing, aroma of malts, taste of malts, acidic, slightly bitter, light, not much flavor.
