The "bottle" is much nicer looking than the can in the picture. Mild creamed corn aroma with some light floral (hallertau?) hops. Clear golden body with thin ring of white head that leaves some light lacing. Creamed corn and cabbage with some floral lavender hop flavours and very subdued bitterness. Light body with moderate carbonation. Aluminum bottle sampled with MartinT, Olivier_MTL and Rastacouere.

Aluminium bottle. Nice fancy bottle, the beer must be good...right? When I poured it in a glass and saw the flat clear pale yellow I knew not to expect much. There was a large fizzy white head but it quickly dissipated. So there it sits with no carbonation and no head -- it’s not very mouth watering. The aroma of grain, corn and yeast was sour or off and unpleasant. Well after all that I am not dying to taste it but here goes: First thing I notice is how watery it is. There’s barely any taste at all, like a glass of water with a bit of crappy generic macro beer mixed in. A completely useless beer.

Can. Clear golden, moderate soapy white head. Clean pale malt aroma... at least it isnt stinky. Grainy palate with a tinny metallic note in the finish. Not awful but pretty lifeless.

Légère présence de fruité en arrière goût. (Rating #697)

This canned brew poured a small head of white colored finely sized bubbles that left behind a transparent softly carbonated light yellow colored body and a minimal lace. The aroma is very mild with malty and doughy notes while the mouthfeel is crisp clean and mildly tingly from start to a lingering tingle in the finish. The flavor is that of a mild malt hop with a bit more body that some American Standards.

Thanks to Fatty, I mean, thanks a lot man. Pours a very light yellow with no head. Smells like fresh cut grass thats a little wet and sticks to your sneakers. Flavor is bad, kind of like the wet grass it smelled like.

Bottle pours pale yellow, quite translucent, small milkish white head, spotty lacing, with subtle carbonation.   Aroma is very corny, VERY corny.   Flavor is fairly non-existant... light straw.   Finish is really lacking, same straw but perhaps with a bit of sweet grass.   I’m no real fan of Pale Lagers but this wasnt too bad... definitely a lawn mower beer, but not bad.   Nothing to get excited about, thats for sure.   The aroma just killed me tho...

Gold body with a small white head. Aroma is sort of corn syrupy with some bready notes. Taste is malted with more corn and lightly hopped. Crisp finish and mouthfeel due to the hops and carbonation. Not as bad as expected, but nothing worth going out of your way to find.
