Pours a slightly hazy golden color into the glass with a white head. Aroma is kind of plain with a slight skunky aroma and maybe a little hops in there as well. Flavor is slightly hoppy, a bit skunky, and kind of plain overall. A very lagery lager. On tap.

copper/golden pour with decent head. Niced malty rounded aromasvas well as light piney notes. Quenching and tasty rounded body and refreshing quality. A nicely balanced offering with a nice hopped malty presence. Drinkable and not too bad

Aroma basically of a typical light beer...so nothing special there...Also pretty much looks like a light beer...so again, nothin special...but ill give credit for a nice bottle. Flavor isnt bad...better than most mainstream beers...but for a lighter every day beer id rather drink yuengling or blue moon. But the flavor is a pretty good mix of hops and malt...but not a lot of either. Very easy on the palate. Overall its not a bad beer...Id buy it again if it was between this and your regular mainsteam commercial beers...but it cant hold up against yuengling or blue moon.

Pours gold and has decent carbonation. Aroma of crisp malt and light hop. Taste is nice, with good malt and light bitterness. Not a bad lager.

Light golden pour with a fizzy fading head. Aroma and flavor are mostly light malt, with just a touch of hops. A decent, refreshing lager.

Highly drinkable. There is a very slight hop taste to go with a fair amount of malt. Lighter in color than I expected with an aroma that reminds me of a glass of iced tea. A very good "go to" beer.
