jzzbassman (838), New Albany, Mississippi, USA May 1, 2008 Underwhelming bottle. Aroma has a bit of hay, like from a mile away. Flavor is vegetal and tastes of corn. Finishes watery. obxdude10 (1547), Pottstown, Pennsylvania, USA May 1, 2008 Just another outstanding offering from AB, clear & straw colored apperance, little bit of corn in the aroma, very bland & watery body, it was served Corona-style with a lime but I didn’t bother with it, maybe it would have been better with it, but probably not much better, grainy aftertaste, nothing special at all about this "new" beer Optigon (561), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Apr 30, 2008 Pours clear, yellow, with a minor, fine head. Aroma is very lightly grassy. Flavor is thing and grassy with a nutty aftertaste. Pretty lame. BBB63 (4199), La Porte, Indiana, USA Apr 30, 2008 Bottle and served in pint glass: Yep another pale straw hued beer with a fizzy head but at least this one had some lace. The aroma is god awful vapours of adjuncts and DMS with a hint of wet husky grains and dishwater. The taste is not any better with a veggie overtone and no hint of hops to be found. Did they just wave a hop over the fermenter and call it a day? At least the finish is so short you quickly forget how bad the beer is. The mouth feel is watery and fizzy. What pisses me off more about this beer is whom it is associated with and people who think this is actually "brewed" by a micro. Maybe if my hair was spiked into something like a shark fin then I would have enjoyed it more. ndfreak77 (76), USA Apr 30, 2008 Pours yellow and is very similar in flavor to Corona. Quite refreshing with a nice smooth flavor. Not to shabby. tarc (47), New Jersey, USA Apr 29, 2008 Great hot summer day beer, refreshing, great with a lime, smoother that that popular mexican beer, Clean yellow color, great logo on the bottle. dm9831 (1167), Monee, Illinois, USA Apr 29, 2008 pours clear pale yellow, white head that disipates to scum floating on top. corn syrupy aroma. corn syrupy flavor with a weak water flavor taste. palate of watery water. overall a flat and lifeless beer, but at least it is only a 12 oz. bottle. AdamSkillin (376), High Bridge, New Jersey, USA Apr 29, 2008 It’s a slightly better Corona than Corona, which A.B. owns about half of anyway. A search of google maps reveals that Jacksonville, FL is not actually located on an island, so the commercial description makes as much sense as Anheuser World Select did when it came out.
