And to think, just a few years ago, I used to think this was a finer brew... wow, how this site has saved my life....lol... Pours dark straw into the glass. The nose is like most Miller macro offerings, almost null with the slightest hint of confectioner’s sugar. The taste is certainly not "bold and hoppy", as touted by the manufacturer; rather, it has a sweet-corn tendency, with little to no hops present at all. There is a medium mouthfeel, and that’s honestly the high point of the brew. Everything else just screams "MACRO TRYING TOO HARD!!!"

The usual miller type beer. Better than MGD. It’s hard to describe the taste because it tastes like 100 other beers. Nothing special.

We use to get this beer at the Dixie Chicken. They sell 50 cent chuggers there. Not the best tasting beer but I was Drinking this beer for the alcohol content. Other than a beer that will get you drunk very quick, not much else to offer.

Pours a golden color with a thin white head. Corny and metallic aroma. Watery flavor with a funky metallic finish. Disgusting.

I can’t say any more about this than what Immy and gputty have already said. Just pour it down the sink.

After forcing Immy to try one, I sampled it myself. From bottle. This stuff looks as bad as Bud. Smells and tastes of rotten corn. Pretty awful stuff, but I remember drinking a lot of it when I belonged to the unwashed.

Gputty brought this swill to the Daytona 500 party at my house for "the masses". Had not rated it, so I tried to stomach one. I may have some bias, as I never liked this when I tried it years ago, but here goes... Pours a light, light straw, almost devoid of color. Nose is rotten ass funk corn. As the song goes, "I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink..." UGH. More ass funky corn, some sort of chemically taste and a smack of alcohol. Finish is like a cat shat in my mouth. Move over Michelob Ultra, I have a new beer to despise...

My friends and I used to get kegs of this stuff back in the day. Its good for parties cuz of the 5.5 alcohol content.
