Draft. Pale macro yellow witha decent white head. Aroma is pretty light, as is the flavour profile. It’s actually a fairly clean lager albeit a fairly bland one as a result. Some pleasant hop bitterness is quick in its departure. Accomplishes what it sets out to do, and it’s not aiming for those of us set on a nice abbey ale. Not bad, just very mainstream and watery. Their Red Leaf has a bit more flavour to it.

Clear yellow colour with a slight greenish hue. Almost no aroma or flavour. If you’re looking for that "crisp & clean with no aftertaste" type of beer that is often promised by the macros, look no further! After drinking half a glass, I added some lemon soda, and it was much better that way.

Clear straw body eith a thin white head. Looks to have minimal carbonation. Aroma is slightly sweet corn with some chemically notes. Taste is sweet corn and some metallic flavours as well. Light bodies, watery mouthfeel. Aftertaste is also sweet corn. overall, although light , the taste is off and I wouldn’t drink it unless it was the only thing available. The thooroughbred of beers? More like the pony of beers.

Frothy white head that dissipates quickly. Golgen hue. The aroma is a small amount of grain and not much else. Highly carbonated sweet late. Not too bad for an American Standard.

Straw color with a initally tall white head that dissipates to only a few small bubbles. Light sweet simple sugar smell, slightly grassy. Dry light malt start and that's where the pleasantries end. Bitter, near sour corn flavor with a husky, bad alcohol finish. Egad!

Tasted at TFOB. Light yellow colour, clear with slight white head. Grassy scent, with slightly grassy hoppy taste.
