Not bad, malty, sweet, smooth, went well with greek food as it was refreshing and uncomplicated. Midgrade German style lager, could do worse.

Oh man, this stuff is just major, major piss. Glad I only have 1 bottle. Like a bud dry or something but with 10x the vomit intensity.

a perfectly middle of the road lager, better than a lot of the macro brews out there. a bit of cooked corn and cereal graininess and just a bit of hoppy bitterness in the background. honestly id drink this over anything from AB or Miller.

Bottle from Central Market Fort Worth. Pale yellow pour with a small white head. Aroma is fruit and rubbing alcohol. Taste is stale grain and that’s really about it.

Bottle from Fratto. The beer that became a legend? Clear yellowish color with a white head. Aroma is grainy. Sweet Malts and grass. Flavor is grains and slight sweet with a lightly bitter finish. Standard.

[Bottle] Pours a clear golden color with about a half inch worth of white foam on top. Light aroma of cereal grains and mild grass. Straw, muted citrus, crackers and grains in the taste. Dry palate and moderate carbonation levels. Very nice body for the style. There is not a ton going on flavor-wise here, but the body certainly wins it some points.

Clear, light yellow, good head. Not much aroma - perhaps a slight fruit smell. Taste is Industrial. Lager. Drinkable but not outstanding in any way.

bottle, thin clear yellow with frothy white foam, aroma is grassy with a light fruit and hop flavor, finish is sweet
