Both aluminum bottle and glass bottle. Pours piss yellow with small white head. Smells like grain malt and a ltlle skunky. Tastes la little malty and grainy, with very little hops. Sweet and crispy. Not very good

Bottle. Poured pale yellow with fast dissipating head. Aroma of adjunct and malt. Thin malty flavour. Almost no finish. Cheap, but not good cheap.

16oz. Pours a clear straw body with a white head. Aroma is fairly muted... mostly sweet corn flakes. Body follows with similar flavors but a surprisingly malty presence. Has a very bad rap, mostly from Pennsylvanians... I didn’t think it was that bad.

I grew up on this stuff. Aroma of corn, light hopes. Urine pale yellow (the color its supposed to be, yes?) Has a slight flavor.

12oz aluminum bottle. Pretty much your standard pale lager, maybe a bit on the sweeter side.

thooper41 (465) - Oregon, USA - OCT 5, 2008
16oz bottle: pours golden brown with quick fading white head, aroma of stale malt, flavor not awful for a big pale lager but nothing great pale malt with some added leather taste. i think pit should stick to steel cause there beer just aint cutting it.

Sleeper (91) - Washington, USA - OCT 2, 2008
This was a tall grenade bottle. Pours a clear golden straw color. My sniffer cant pick up much with this and my taste isn’t getting much from it either. It’s very light on my tongue. Just a hint of roasted grains, and lots of water.
