Tastes better than it smells. Golden color. Average taste, not bad but not great either. I’m more of a dark beer fan. Goes down rather smoothly. I’d be interested to taste it from a draft rather than a bottle.

not my taste. Pours a yellow orange color with a small head. Smells sour and like vinegar. Tastes like rotten cream soda. Not so nice.

Bottle-Not terrible, but not close to good. Middle of the road for a cheap beer. Yellow color, grassy smell and taste.

Bottle. An American classic. That doesn’t always mean good. This beer isn’t all that bad, not a go to kind of beer, but not bad. Although light, this beer has a bit going on. There is a light hop aroma and flavor with a hint of maltiness. The color of this beer is a little more golden that I had expected.

hate to admit it, but not totally revolting. has at least some body to it, it’s even a little smooth. malt flavor is a litlle more pronounced than other swill. somewhat sweet, even starchy. good carbonation. it’s been years, i didn’t even know they came in bottles. only had ’em in green cans. the next morn, that greenish tinge showed in other places

12oz can from Joka’s in Waterville. Pours pale yellow with virtually no lasting head. Smells sweet more than anything else with hints of graininess and floral hops. Tastes sweet too, with something tasting like lactose dominating, with hints of adjunct and malt flavor, as well slight amounts of floral hops and grain bitterness on the finish. Thin to medium in body. Very drinkable. One sip definitely invites another. By no means the best beer in the world, nor the most complex, but a simple tasty beer. One of the best macro beers around, and a great value - 6.25$ per 12-pack!
