Brouwerij (414) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - JAN 6, 2013
Can. Pours a clear straw with a finger of rocky white head. Settles rapidly with no lacing. Aroma is very mild wheat, grass, hay. Aroma is mild bitter wheat. The slightest hint of malt. Moderate carbonation, light body, and watery texture. Drinkable. A generic, weak, mass produced brew.

For a yard/garage lager does a fine job. Look, smell, taste and mouth feel all simple at best. Price point best feature.

I wonder if this where the expression ’gettin hammed’ came from. Suits the beer pretty well in any case - pretty much all its good for. Smells funky and tastes like way too much of the can leaked into the beer. Liquid tin. Some other kind of gross aftertaste here I can quite place. Hell, I wouldnt even want to get hammed on this one. Can in David, Panama.

JoeAgain (66) - New Jersey, USA - DEC 16, 2012
Probably brewed by Miller. Very light, slightly sweet nose. The aroma is more grain - as in corn - than anything else. This is not meant to be a beer that competes with, say, Sam Adams. No, this beer is what it is, a lawn mower beer. To that end, it’s an OK beer.

thome50 (579) - Boringville aka Irvine, California, USA - DEC 2, 2012
Can, thanks to Atom.Pours a light golden with huge white head. 2 fingers. Aroma is malt and skunk. Taste, more malt, corn, slight skunk and some water. Overall, this is nothing special and definitely no PBR.

Beerman6686 (3125) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 19, 2012
This poured a pale yellow color with a white head. Aroma of corn, light grassy hops, and light graininess. Flavor was much the same, lots of corn, but somewhat smooth and not too watery. Not a terrible pale lager.

jmagnus87 (1390) - Rockford, Illinois, USA - NOV 6, 2012
12oz can poured into a shaker. Pours a clear pale gold with about a finger of white head. Aroma of grains, light herbal hops and a little skunk. Light bitter and light sweet. Corn, grains and very light herbal hops. Light bodied with a thin texture. Lively carbonation and not much of a finish. Overall, not bad. Nothing really special but very drinkable.

johnnyoski (359) - Macomb, Michigan, USA - OCT 14, 2012
Can. Faint yellow pour with a frothy white head. Corn and grass aroma. Taste is more of the same. Very light and watery but without that macro metallic bite. Serves its purpose for a night when the beer drinking is focused on quantity and not quality.

womencantsail (6920) - Garbage Grove, California, USA - OCT 14, 2012
Pale yellow pour, white head on top. Lots of metal, corn, and some minimal amounts of pale malt. A bi of yeast and some grass. Flavor is watery, there’s a lot of metal, and a bit of pale malt. Some corn, a bit of mild grass, and a hint of yeast.
