COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Flavor of a fine ale and the smoothness of a premium lager.

Definitely a macro, with all of the accompanying flavors (or lack thereof), but it’s a cut above the rest while still being insanely cheap. When you’re poor and thirsty, you could do worse.

Clean and refreshing - smooth - very drinkable and thirst quenching. 12.99 plus tax for a 30 (THIRTY) pack - unbeatable......

Gold color with a smallish white head. Excellent clarity. Aroma is earthy German hops and gentle malt. Initial taste is biscuty, caramelly malt followed by some earthy hops. The finish is crisp and refreshing. Easy to drink and probably agreeable for the BMC type who don’t mind an american wheat beer at the brewpub.

This pours deep golden with an initially stiff head that diminishes to trace lace. Unfortunately, the nose pegs sweet golden corn..... if I were eating vegetables, maybe that would be welcomed... Very much like American swill... corn, corn, corn to the tongue. The finish is more corn with some slight bitterness. (My mouth is actually in a grimace right now while I write this.) This is cloying, even worse than most of the macros out there. Terrible, just terrible.

Bottle. Poured a somewhat hazy golden yellow with a fairly decent foamy head that disappated quickly. Not much in way of aroma besides corn, some flour-y malt and a touch of honey. Fairly smooth mouthfeel, with a slight hoppy zing. Yeah, it’s creamy, just pretty average. I’d still take it over a good number of macros though.

Havn’t had this stuff since high school, today i remembered why. Almost clear color, fizzy corny sweetness on the tongue,very thin. thats pretty much it.

Can at Swill and Chill Sunday... Pale golden with a thick white head. Aroma is grassy and straw-like. Light berryish fruit and a touch of goldings earthy hop aroma. Flavour is fairly sweet with light fruitiness and a low bitterness. Sweetish finish... this tastes like Canada in that this could stand in for almost any of the macro pale ales north of the border... I wasn’t looking for a reminder, but thanks anyway Genesee.
