This beer is very smooth, but just screams BORING. Does not change flavor, not any distinct aroma. Still, it goes down nice, good for quaffing a few. Just not spectacular.

Had it on tap. Don't want to offend any JC lovers, but this doesn't do anything at all for me. Might as well drink Bud.

The perfect beer! Beer is for drinking and no other beer is more drinkable than old JC.

Very sugary, I found nothing wrong with this beer after its pale amber color and no head appearance....just wasnt too exciting.

LaChad (1375) - San Francisco, California, USA - MAR 6, 2003
Clear amber. Malty with a tad bit of sweetness. Boring, but with a drinkable and clean finish.

Uglyradio (791) - Greenville, South Carolina, USA - MAR 6, 2003
Pours a clear amber color with a small white head that does not linger. It has a slightly hoppy aroma. Light body with medium carbonation, the flavor is slightly malty with a little bit of hop bitterness in the finish. Drinkable, but average. Might make a decent session beer when you want to drink a lot and not think about what you are drinking.

argo0 (9034) - Washington DC, USA - FEB 27, 2003
Golden body with a medium off-white head. Aroma is grassy and slight apple. Taste is flowery/grassy hops and apple. Not a bad beer, but nothing much going for it either.

3fourths (6215) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - FEB 16, 2003
Clear medium amber, aromas of hops and sweet cider. Taste is moderatly strong, but bland. Tastes strongly of alcohol, and has an overall watery feel.
