Slightly distinct taste with medium body, mellow aroma and decent pallet. Standard lager that isn’t abrasive and is well rounded.

Bottle sampled with Beerded_one from his west coast connection. pours red\amber with a small white head. Aroma is bready and sweet malts. The flavor is slightly sweet, bread, and slight traces of hops. Ok brew.

Bottle. Pours a solid, clear red with a tall foamy head. The aroma is sweet and malty with suggestions of honey and biscuits. No off flavors here, just crisp clean malts and a hint of papery hops. I really expect very little from this style, and this meets my low criteria. Hell, this is way better than a Killian’s. I’m drinking it now with some grilled hot dogs and it works just fine with a meal.

(Tap) Pours reddish brown with very little head. Sweet malty notes abound, but without much in the way of hops. Pretty refreshing, but not the most complex beer I’ve ever had.

On tap at a baseball game. This looked like the best beer available at the time. Very average flavor. Color was nice but other than that all round average beer.

Pretty decent beer. I recently tried it on a plane from the can. Poured with a thick amber head. Nice flavor...I suppose it’s better than Killian’s but nothing extremely special.

Weak dark lager, similar to something like Rickard’s Red, only not as sweet. It is a little sweet, but the defining moment I think is when you realize at the end that there is very little bitterness to be found. Unspectacular.

amber brownish appearance. Aroma is doughy. Large head. Flavor is rather thin with some hints of metal and bitterness. Its crisp - not bad - a thirst quencher.
