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

This is nicknamed the "Genny Screamer" for the laxative effects it has on one’s body. This is almost as powerful as the #4 platter from Taco Bell in that regard. There is nothing notable about this beer. It’s cheap swill for cheap people.

SHIG (2530) - Osan, SOUTH KOREA - MAY 2, 2006
Drank straight from the can as all Genesee products in my home town are. Smell was pretty skunky to sweet. Taste was a enrichened malt when it comes to US industry beers.

Can. Really not too much to say about this beer - rather bland, nothing bad, but nothing good. No redeeming qualities (other than price), but nothing offensive either. A value purchase.

This is definitely better than regular Genny and has a unique flavor that’s hard to describe, but to me it’s defintely not bad. The price makes it even better. It’s very cheap.

This has the sweet flavor of Grainbelt premium with an extra touch of spice and alcohol. It isn’t bad for a very light beer.

This is a wonderful budget brew. I buy it in refillable longnecks, and I think this format retains the flavor the best.

This is a great beer. It is smooth, has a nice head (when poured from a can) and does not smell "skunky" like others have said. It is creamy going down. This is not the typical "Ale" that I am used to trying (definitely not an India Pale Ale), but a great American Brew...like the other Genny’s. This used to be the #1 brand on the East Coast before the big 3 started their advertising campaigns. Guess alot of people rely on bikini clad women to make their taste choices.

Certainly the best of the cheapo swills I drank tonight. Really noto offensive of a taste, and slightly creamy. Can actually taste some hop characteristics.
