COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brightly filtered, highly carbonated, golden premium-style lager. It is lightly hopped with Polish Lublin hops. The beer will appeal to those who prefer the lighter American style beers.

SuIIy (1828) - Natick, Massachusetts, USA - NOV 27, 2009
Bottle. Pours a clear golden yellow color with a small bright white foamy head. Nose is straw and hay with some light corn notes. Palate is full and crisp with a light fizz. Flavor of corn and hay with some nice grassy hop notes, full bodied, rather pleasant and quite flavorful. I had low expectations going in and I was pleasantly suprised.

BigBeer45 (934) - Michigan, USA - AUG 31, 2009
Has a clear straw yellow gold pour with a small wispy white head that collapses to a ring and sparse cover, mild effervescence, aromas of faint malt and grassy hops, some corn? Flavor of light malt and hop bitterness on the palate with a faint field herb flavor (from the hops?), has a thin mouth feel, ok drink.

deyholla (3152) - Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA - AUG 17, 2009
Bottle. Poured a very pale gold with a green tint and minimal head. The Aroma was weak as well with some grainy notes. Flavor was non existent, seriously tasted a bit like carbonated water.

AllAboutStout (605) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - OCT 26, 2008
Part three of ’’Clean out the drawer of my beer fridge’’. Pours a very light gold in color. Very cloudy and no head. Smell is very vegetal and corn like. Very off. Taste is very much the same. It’s not very often that a craft beer makes me want a Bud, but this is severly lacking. Not good.

light straw color, with a dominant bready and "lager-like" aroma. this beer belongs in a can; not bad, but it certainly doesn’t distinguish itself from any other beer in its class.

Pours a clear golden, lightly carbonated, and thin. It smells pretty weak too--I can perhaps pick up some very light caramel malts. However, the taste is what keeps me from classifying this as a plain macro clone. The malt is much more discernible with the malt aftertaste also being more apparent compared with a macro lager. I tend to go for the heavier brews, but as far as "pale lagers" go, I’d much rather drink this guy. It’s got a much more satisfying flavor than the macros do.

jgb9348 (3367) - Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA - JAN 2, 2008
Crystal clear coloured body with a thinnish white head. Aroma of skunky pale malt and a bit of old hops. Light-bodied; Strong malty flavour with some mild fruity tastes, some skunky hops and a nice cardboard finish! Aftertaste, just as bad - this one is definitely not showing any complexity. Overall, a pretty bad beer - but if you are polish or in that area in Detroit, try this one out. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from a store off Jos. Campau in Hamtramck (Detroit), Michigan on 25-December-2007.
