Pour from a 12 oz bottle. Typical pale lager look (nothing wrong with that.) Aroma of funky corn and wet news paper. Flavor is sweet corn, a little dry astringent / sour in the finish that may be hops. I like many American Pale Lagers, so I’m not dismissing htis out a bias against the style. It’s just a lack luster brew.

Bottle. Not great. Aroma is corn and wet dog. Flavor isnt awful but has an off aftertaste. I wouldnt recommend

Beer at the ballpark. Typical lager. Liked the light better. Not awful though and better than the macros

Golden with a lot of bubbles. No real flavor. Taste like a mass produced beer from AB. Nothing special ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Typical cheap lager. Golden and fizzy and not much taste at all. Another binge drinkin beer and that's about it ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On tap at PIT, ice cold yellow with white foam, aroma is sweet corn, flavor is sweet malty, slight bitter and sweet finish

Yellow with some uninspired head leaving some lacing on the glass. Smell is sickly sweet, and has some rotten cabbage notes to it.

Aroma: Grainy. Appearance: dog urine. Taste: Toilet water. Palate: raw sewage. Overall: I think my own pee would actually taste better.

Originally rated July 2005. Sampled from their aluminium bottle. Pours a rich golden colour with hardly no head, no lacing and very low carbonation. The smell is kind of sweet and malty with hints of grass. There is no sweet malt in the taste though, just grain malt at the beginning, and some corn at the finish. Pretty watery mouthfeel. Nothing special here... except the cool bottle.

473 ml can. Typical swill. A bit more muted than the average BMC, more watered down.

It’s better than similar offerings from Miller, Budweiser and Coors. Great for Steelers games.
