I have never forgiven Miller for inflicting this beer upon me throughout college. Corny, metallic pee with some sugar mixed in to "ice" it. The only thing worse than drinking it is the hangover.

12oz bottle- Aroma of corn and grain. A light golden color with a head that quickly dissipated into nothing. Taste of alcohol on the front end followed by nothing. I’ve tasted worse but I don’t think it’s that bad but I’m a Miller fan of the big 3.

This was my first ice beer. I sat on a counter in a consescion stand next to this on tap and just kept refilling my plastic cup all night. It was just crap that got you drunk faster. I realized this the next morning.

From a 24 oz. can with a coded freshness date by UPC barcode, spilt with a workmate while watching the beginning of the White Sox/Royals game. Poured a clear typical macro lager golden with a foamy white head that settled into a thin lacing. Aromas of corn, a light grain husky and alcohol solvent. Good fizzy carbonation and a softly crisp, smoothish light bodied mouhtfeel. Bland tasting with a sweet corny aftertaste that kills the drinkability of this for me, corn based breakfast cereal and a light husky, a soft bitterness that is rolled up with a alcohol solvent-like flavor and a dry cereal finish with a cooked sweet corn lingering in the palate that I find to be unpleasant. There are some macro lagers that I don’t mind drinking, especially at restaurants and bars that don’t offer any good choices, but this is not one of them. Even though it is cheaply priced, I’m glad I didn’t pay for it.

Looks and smells almost like beer--watery beer that ran off of the main tank that is. The only things that this beer has going for it is that the spoiled milk flavor that is its only real flavor is not overly strong. Tastes primarily of old rain water that has been allowed to sit too long. A good beer for homeles alcoholics. All others should steer clear.

This is a great way to get drunk if you don’t enjoy beer. Its odorless, nearly tasteless, but can kill brain cells remarkably quickly. The Cask N Flagon in Fenway park had a $5 a pitcher years ago but I think they found too many students in the snowbanks who succumbed to the ’house

Pabst with a kick. a real sour taste, but not as bad as i thought for the price. this will definately be a slow drinking 12.

12 0z can.Pours a typical lager yellow with a white head. Not much aroma but a sweetish smooth watery taste.A little sweeter since they frooze some of the water out.This is not one I will drink again.
