BrewDad (2363), Olympia, Washington, USA May 20, 2008 12oz Bottle - Marco Island, Fl
Aroma – Very light overall beer aroma.
Appearance – Light golden color, clear as clear can get and very nice head.
Flavor – A light beer with very little flavor perfect for the event. (HOT Night outside)
Palate – Nice Mouthfeel, good texture with a dry finish.
Overall – A perfect hot night beer. This was a good beer for quenching the thirst. Just a good plain beer for the masses.
HighlanderOne (538), Somewherein, New Jersey, USA May 18, 2008 Poured from bottle 5/2008. Smell of gas and a bit of malt. Yellow gold color, just a bit of head remains, but no lacing. Corn, grass and malt in flavor, bubbly, somewhat oily feel . Not as astringent as Corona at least. Burnt corn lingers in aftertaste. Drinkable, but I’d much rather have a good IPA at the beach that this style. ditmier (1023), Boise, Idaho, USA May 17, 2008 2008 Bottle - Aroma of grass and funk, mild carbonation and bitterness, taste - slightly sweet, makes me yearn for Natty light...it’s that good... jgentgesdo (564), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA May 17, 2008 Pours clear yellow with fizzy white head that quickly diminishes. Slight sweet corn aroma. Flavor of corn, quite sweet, clean finish. Not much to say here really. Reminds me of Corona. beerguy101 (3861), Newark, California, USA May 16, 2008 This Pale Lager pours a fizzy yellow beer color from a 12oz clear glass bottle. Large sized white fizzy head. The aroma is a touch of malt, some corn and some grain. A light bodied Pale Lager.
The malts are grainy and sweet. The hops are floral. This beer is a sweet tasting pale lager. Its tough to find anything else to say that doesn’t fit in the American mass produce micro beer description. Its thin, too sweet and over carbonated. There is a cardboardy like aftertaste as well. Well at least this bottle isn’t skunky tasting. Mouthfeel is thin. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is sweet. Brewed from Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville Brewing, I guess its better than a Corona, but I would rather just find that lost jigger of salt and have a Margarita.
EithCubes (2140), Indiana, USA May 14, 2008 Updated: May 18, 2008My 750th American rating. Bottle, clear glass. Misty, slightly skunked aroma with firm, abundant carbonation and a grainy citrus combination. Somehow medicinal lemon cooler. Pale neon yellow body with a noisy bright white head. Dryish, grainy, slightly bready taste, dull and bland but not offensive. Watery, thin body, ever so slight chalky coating on the tongue, and mostly well-hidden alcohol. Touch of sweet corn, overall effect has just a touch of sweetness (As we’d expect by style), but not really all that cloying. Not terrible, as expected, but not unfairly maligned - this isn’t exactly beer as we know it. I don’t think I’d turn down another, if it were cold enough, and if it were free. gonzo46and2 (108), Tampa, Florida, USA May 13, 2008 This is a macro beer. Knowing that and expecting macro taste are the keys to enjoying this beer for what it is. Refreshing and more complex than Corona without the skunkiness. Not bad if the price is right. tompete (72), Burlington, Iowa, USA May 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours pale yellow with a thin white head. Meh. Decent try at including a little maltiness but not real hop aroma. A slightly sweet finish - a nice change compared to other light American lagers. Tiny hop flavor - balanced with the malt.
