Beerdedone (2188) - Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 30, 2006
Bottle. Pours pale golden with a white head. Aroma of grain, corn, slight grassy hops. Flavor is corn, grain, water, weak, slight bitter finish. nothing good, yet drinkable.

simple yeast aroma and very pale straw yellow color. Little flavor, starts a bit skunky, finishes sweet with no hop characteristics. Great for those who don’t like that ’beer’ taste.

Sparky (2128) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - DEC 15, 2008
Bottle. I’ve never seen this is a bottle before. I feel like I should put on a Franco Harris jersey and wave a Terrible Towel while drinking it. Pours a clear yellow with a 2 finger quickly dissipating snow white head and spotty lacing. Nose is grain and light hops. Taste is malt, some light hops and a slight metallic finish. Light mouth feel. Not good.

nimbleprop (2126) - SouthWest, Washington, Washington DC, USA - AUG 29, 2006
Golden yellow color with almost no white head. Malty aroma. Malty taste with a metallic finish. Tastes like a frat party.

Chill and Swill at HDG every Sunday. Pale lager with a hoppy malty aroma. Corny notes. Malty and hoppy flavor. Thin bodied. Ok. Good lawnmower beer.

scraff (2118) - Baltimore, Maryland, USA - OCT 3, 2005
Sparkling gold, thin fizzy white head. Leave in the bottle for best aroma. You don’t really want to smell this in a pint glass. Creamed corn, and butterscotch, with a light fruitiness. Tasted pretty much the same. Light bodied, light carbonation, malty, corny finish. I’m serious...drink it from the bottle...

mds (2115) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 7, 2005
bottle. cool aluminum bottle. golden straw body with a fizzy white head. lots of carbonation. corn aroma is prevalent and not entirely pleasing. flavour isn’t exactly offensive but one can’t really vouch for any distinguishing or interesting qualities. sweet malty flavour with bubbly carbonation. watery thin body. sub-par.
