A little veggie cabbage aroma when I popped the lid on this 12 bottle. Probably because it is a rather old bottle. Date code 131105, I think. Smell clears to a more lemon oil aroma in the glass. No bubbles or head on this stuff, looks completely flat. On the palate however, it does have some good clean tingly carbonation. Taste is rather well mannered. Controlled with very litlle bitterness. This makes it friendly and enjoyable IMHO. Taste buds welcome this amicable brew. Has a slight citrus flavor but it lacks the typical bitter bite. Easy to like and repeatable. Does not possess any pilsner bite. More like a well behaved american lager. Finish is short and sweet with some metallic industrial hints.

Aug 20, 2008 12 oz bottle...Pours clear golden yellow w/ a fizzy, white head. Settles to form nice laces all the way down the glass. Aroma of sweet malts, grains, sour funk. Flavor was a bit too sweet, somewhat cloying, definite e lack of hop bite....also did have some "cardboard" notes. Mouthfeel was light-bodied, somewhat watery w/ medium carbonation. Not bad...

Aug 19, 2008 Had in a 350 mL bottle from bottlescrew Bills, Calgary, AB. Pours a plain yellow hgold with a medium sized head which doesn’t dissapate. Aroma of malts, hops, and corn. Taste is boring, slightly skunky and of banana, citrus, and malts. Mouthfeel is boring and normal. Overall, a fairly good beer, but not something I will try to find again.

Aug 19, 2008 I’m impressed. Not bad for a pale lager. Not much color or mouthfeel but overall the aroma and taste aren’t bad.

Aug 9, 2008 $1.79 12 oz. bottle at Total Wine in Kennesaw, Georgia.
Appearance: Pours a clear, yellow body with a firm, fizzy, white head.
Smell: Sweetish pale malt nose with notes of spicy hops and ears of corn.
Taste: Sweet pale maltiness with a light taste of boiled corn. Sour graininess in the background. Spicy hops with a fair amount of sweetness-curbing bitterness. Drop of lemon. Finish crisp.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium carbonation. A tad watery.
Drinkability: Eh. Not quite a turkey from Turkey, it’s just a basic, simple lager.

Jul 28, 2008 Turkish thirst-quencher, probably does the job on a hot day. I’ve only tasted it on a cold Scottish day though and it wasn’t mega brill to be truthful. Bit too watery for me.
