| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Jun 2, 2008 12oz - Got this thinking it was the Classic Wheat, of which I had fond memories. What a letdown. Just sort of laid there after the pour, and no balance on the palate. Poor. MrBunn (1566), Western, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 21, 2008 Bottle. Pour is a pale and fizzy gold with doughy malt and grassy hop aromas. A touch of pepper in the aroma, too. Taste is a nice mix of pepper and grass hops presence hovering over a soft texture of light malt. (Wow... that’s really bad, but I’m going to leave it.) This is pretty good... rampmaster (322), Alden, New York, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | May 15, 2008 It pours with a big fizzy head that fades fast leaving nothing behind. The body is clear with a light golden color. It has a rather light aroma with hints of light sweet malts. The taste has a semi-sweet barley malt and corn flavor with very light hops in the background. Its body is light with a rather thin texture and an almost flat carbonation. Overall it is a rather boring beer to look at and drink. edden (927), cow- lumbus, Ohio, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | May 10, 2008 5/9/08: Bottle. Light lager nose with a touch of grass. Pale yellow body. Light flavor with a touch of corn and a bit of pepper. puboflyons (629), New Hampshire, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 9, 2008 From a 340 ml. brown bottle lot coded J12L71 0606. The pour is a lively carbonated straw-gold with bubbly off-white head. The aroma is on the malty side. The flavor is also malty and I like that. Hops are diminished and subtle. I think it has a solid taste and I like it better than Labatt’s more easily available Blue and Labatt 50 (and I generally like those bieres). Nice choice for a warmer day. I have only seen this in a mix case and not as a stand alone 6-pack. dp (512), uniontown, Ohio, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 15, 2008 not nearly as filling as blue, which is a good thing, cleaner taste, had two after fertilizing the lawn this evening, so my ratings may be biased due to my exertion. hotstuff (3183), Indiana, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Mar 13, 2008 Bottle. Small white head that mostly diminished with very little lacing, transparent, visible carbonation, and a yellow hue. The nose was light hops and malt and a tad skunky. Flavor was light hops and malt. Woo-hoo. Not! Fairly smooth mouthfeel and light-medium body. IMO absolutely nothing special about this beer whatsoever. It definitely did not wow me by any means and therefore I have no interest in having this one again. idbowman82 (62), Painesville, Ohio, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 14, 2008 As products from mega-breweries go, this one isn’t bad at all. The pour is not-quite-clear golden, with a large white head. Aroma is malt...and lots of it. Taste is as malty as the aroma with just a bit of sweet malt in the background. Finishes relatively clean. Biggest draw back is that the actual flavor is a bid subdued and lacks depth. Not amazing, but like I said...as offerings from major brewers go, this one’s pretty good.
