Pours a clear pale straw yellow with a foamy white head that dissipated extremely quickly. Malts come across most clearly on the nose with almost no hint of hops. There is an underlying aroma that I could only describe as "metallic". Taste of alcohol comes across most clearly with malts and very slight hops coming through almost as an aftertaste. Finishes with a metallic aftertaste. Overall, better than Bud Light or Miller Lite, but not by much.

POurs a weak staw yellow with a white head. Aroma is lots of corn and adjuncts, and some grass. Flavor is also lts of corn and a not soo good metallic finish.

I keep trying these bad beers and they pretty much all taste the same....sweetened water. I did notice the alcohol taste a little more than in the other macro brew pale lagers. It’s cheap..you get what you pay for.

UPDATED: JUL 12, 2009 My guilty pleasure. Is a cheap, not bad tasting beer if you just want something to consume in mass quantities. Will have this everyday of the week over a bud light or high life. Has a little bit of a strong alcohol taste but is nicely masked by the hop taste. Finishes fairly smooth.

Bottle: Poured a clear pale yellow color with a foamy white head. The aroma is very skunky with sweet grass. Taste is carbonated zing with grass, malt, and metallic hops.

Had this at a golf course where there were no good alternatives. Some wood and metallic tastes. Mom taught me that if you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything at all. I will take her advice.

Nothing to write home about. Although college was good for something, an appreciation for cheap beer. Only drank from cans, but it was cold so I drank it.

From the cheap beers available on the market, this is better than some but still a cheap beer. Weak/flat taste with hardly any aroma but with no unpleasant after taste.
