From can no. 0610-R-10:25. It pours straw yellow with busy carbonation and a quickly fizzling white head. The aroma is more like malt-flavored water. The mouthfeel is thin like water. The taste is vaguely grainy, thinly malted but otherwise generally flavorless. But it’s an NA so I did not expect much else.

Gold and fizzy beer with some appley hints, earthy, some creamy caramelly hints. Weird beer.

Very pale. The tap water here (Sarasota) stinks of chlorine; this has no aroma at all, period. It’s like I’m selling a black hole. Fizzy, a bit worty, hugely watery. This barely looks like beer, much less tastes of it. I would, however, drink this over a Pepsi, as there’s not enough in here to offend.

Can & Cock & Bull. Clear straw color with hardly any head. Aroma is water with a twist of beer. Very clear. Tastes like water with a little grain flavor. Actually tastes completely inoffensive. A little gassy but besides that tastes better than most low-grade macro lagers and fulfills "the lighter the better" in that department.

Appearance: Clear, yellow body with a thin, bubbly, white head. Smell: Light pale malt and corn with the scent of a filthy dog’s mouth equally filthy mouth. Bleh. Taste: Light pale malts with some corn husks stirred in. Very unclean. They scrubbed out the alcohol and replaced it with, well, I don’t know, but it’s all kinds of awful. Like a dog belched up something awful in the brew prior to canning. Mouthfeel: Thin-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Terrible! Some of these NA beers can be quite ghastly. And needlessly so!

From a 12oz can - Pours a clear light pale yellow. Not pretty at all. Smells exactly like an ashtray or cigar smoke. Worst smelling beer ever! Below average carbonation. First sip is almost flavorless with just a tad of hops and malts …almost water like. I can not imagine consuming this product.

12oz can. I bought this for $1 at a Indian run Liquor store that closed the next week. Clear, golden yellow. WTF is that smell. Bowling Alley ashtray that hasn’t been cleaned out since the 70s. I can’t even take a sip, it smells so bad. Gag reflex. So after the first sip, it tastes like yuck. Like a can left out in the sun for a year. Aluminum Poisining. You know that bottle at a party that people use as their butt can. It tatses like the little beer left in that bottle. Nicotine water, nicotine tea, nico-tea. Go to directly to jail for buying this! Do not collect $200.
