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.

Wet cardboard aroma, foam is gone in a flash. Overall a lightly hop sweet corn/malt beer. I brought a twelve pack back from Rockford, IL and swilled numerous cans with Chinese food. Back in college we would buy a case (of 12) 40 ounce Hamm’s for twelve bucks. Three fortys of Hamm’s could get me by on a Thursday night on campus when I was low on ca$h.

Pours a pale golden yellow with little to no head. Aroma of corn, grains and some hops with a bland flavor.

It is amazing how bad this stuff is. Pale yellow,no head, no nose, no flavor, no nothing. I am embarrassed to admit I drank this stuff when I was younger. Ugh.

Pale yellow, macro frothy white head that dissipates. Same corny light hop aroma. Turns a bit papery as it warms. It has a slight edge at first, and then turns into a weird cheap watery sweet pale ale type of thing. I swear I need to do a side-by-side with some Hamms and MGD or High Life because this is the same shit. I almost swear I prefer Hamms products, maybe my tastes are becoming more accepting.

UPDATED: JUL 8, 2007 i was sort of raised on this beer. not that i drank a lot when i was a kid, but my mothers side was pretty much dedicated to it in the 80’s. i try it sometimes for sentimental reasons, and it does no justice. just gross. sorry aunt gayle.

My friend Scott bought this beer because it was the cheapest the store had. Too bad it wasn’t drinkable. It was like piss drained through adult diapers. Miller must take the backwash from used Miller Genuine Draft bottles and then brew up this crap. I honestly cannot believe this beer has a 4 percentile rating and Miller Lite has a 1. You all are taste-dead imbeciles!

the best of the worst beers. definately an aquired taste. my "of age" friends and i drank this my senior year in high school, it was nasty at first, but once youve drank enough, it starts to taste really good. hamms is the only cheap crappy beer that i will drink.
