Light and and very bitter. As at least another has stated, this beer often tastes skunky. Unsure why this beer is popular.

Another beer that frequently tastes skunky. I usually end up with a headache after drinking a few of these for some reason.

The best thing that this beer has going for it is it can be found anywhere. When faced with a choice at 7-11 - id pick it over Bud,coors etc anyday. Wickedly over priced.
