2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 GodOfThunder (1201) - Orlando, Florida, USA - MAY 19, 2009
Mmmmm... can at Redlight. I might have shotgunned this one, as I have the tendency to do that to pale lagers. I’m sure this tasted just like the rest of them out there, but it went down so fast, and so cold, that I can’t really remember. I’m just writing this to get the tick and it was in my book.
1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20 Beardface (1480) - Eugene, Oregon, USA - MAY 14, 2009
Another nice, watery, underwhelming lager from the fine folks at Iron City. Love the brewery name, that’s about the best I can say for this one.
0.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20 Dizzy17 (11) - Jefferson City, Missouri, USA - MAR 12, 2009
THE WORST! I have tried this beer under several different aliases - as Olde Frothingslosh (loved the "bathing beauty" on the can [what a babe!]), as JR Ewing Beer (when "Dallas" was popular), and as a generic called BEER. All of them were equally bad. The aroma and the palate were hard to describe. So, I’ll just call them "nasty" and let it go at that.

Bottle. What a way to finish off a bad day of work. Pours a golden nectar with a soda like diminishing white head. Skunk, malt extract, some earth and corn galore. Taste is a little better than the aroma much like your classic macro lager.
1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 Heathen (1241) - Wilmington, Delaware, USA - MAR 3, 2009
THOUGHTS: Not very good. A little rough to drink, but not as bas as I thought it would be.
TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a light, clear yellow with nice carbonation and little white pieces like coconut shavings or confetti at the bottom of a clean glass. It also had a small, white head that fully diminished and left virtually no lacing. The aroma was light grassy hops, cooked corn and light vinegar. The initial flavor was sweet; while the finish was sour and slightly bitter with a short duration. There was malt, lemony honey, grassy hops and water. The light to medium body was watery and then slightly dry with tingly to fizzy carbonation and a light astringent finish.
1.2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20 unclemattie (3242) - Georgia, USA - MAR 3, 2009
12oz twist-off bottle. Side by side with IC light. Clear, golden pale. White foamy head. Appearance is typical of style. Aroma of of canned corn (salt added and very sweet niblets). Again typical. Roasted corn flavor, finishes with a hop stalk bite. I gotta vomit now.

Do I really need to bother with a detailed description of another yellow beer with stank corn and grain aromas and boring ass nasty grainy flavors? Ok good, then I wont.
