UPDATED: NOV 30, 2004 Clear and deep yellow with a patchy head and some lace. Mouthfeel wasn’t too bad: smoothish malts below, with a nice carbonation level above -- not overly fizzy, either. Malts were sweet, complemented by some chewy hops, carrying with them a slight bitterness. Somewhat of a flowery/herbal bitterness ... some of it aroma. A little DMS surfaces in the aftertaste. RERATE: Aluminum bottle. Texture was light, but it had a richness to it. Sythetically sweet malt base. Notes of popcorn, and a little DMS. Extremely mild bitterness.

Still better than Budweiser and cheaper too.

I guess you could say that this is toward the upper end of the mass produced crap that's out there (Bud, Miller, etc.). It's drinkable, but by far nothing special. If you're going to drink this, you might as well go for the IC Light - it tastes about the same & has less calories and less carbs.

(Aluminum Bottle) Tastes very much like my dads beer 25 years ago. I like the bottle/can. Nothing great, but drinkable.

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.

Alumabottle. Pours a clear yellow with a small white head that disappears quickly. Strong taste of corn and sweeteners. I purchased this beer more for the container than for the beer itself!

Below average. Golden colour. No special taste. Will be forgotten pretty fast.

basic yellow color wisp of white foam that is gone quickly, nose is grainy, a little grassy hops but not much. very watery somewhat corn flavored odd finish. not a recomend
