COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Hamm’s, first brewed in 1865, an America’s classic premium beer, "Born in the Land of Sky Blue Waters." Miller acquired the brand in 1999. Hamm’s is brewed in true family tradition using the purest water and the choicest barley malt, grain and hops. Hamm’s has a low to moderate body and bitterness and a low to moderate hoppy aroma. Hamm’s is available in select states.

Haven’t seen this in the store for years. Thought it was long gone. Reading the commercial description made me laugh out loud. "Another classic beer produced by Pabst Brewing." Thats hard to say with a straight face. My dad used to drink this in the 60’s. I drank it in High School some in the early 80’s. Cheap American beer.

Not unpalatable like Coors Light, but just another typical cheap beer. This one does have some maltiness in there which presents some flavors not present in other beers of this category, still mostly corn though, but like sweet corn. Virtually non-existant hop profile. I would rather drink Pabst then this, and Pabst is quite a bit cheeper even (at least in my area).

Certainly better than Busch, but nothing special, even for cheap beers. But I will drink it if I’m not buying, and in desperate situations, I’ll buy a case for ten bucks.

Surprisingly malty aroma with light grain and grassy hops. Malty start (for style, it ain’t doppelbock). Mouthfeel gets a bit of a slick corn oil feel, which really is tough to swallow and could be offset with some hop bitterness, should they choose to add some. Notably lacking in hop character, just pale malts and corn grits. And lots of sky blue water.

Had in the can but I can guess at the appearance. Taste was a "full-bodied" lager. Pretty decent, although I must temper that statement by saying I was working outside and it was really hot. Perfect for that situation though.

My Dad gave this beer to me so thanks for the Hamms Dad! Light color. Smell of nails, malt and honey. Tastes light, sweet and a harsh aftertaste.
