Well was given this at a party, found it to be a cheap version of macro lagers, Would rather drink coors or milller lites... some light corn and lite malts... maybe?

(Sample Date: 10/3/2009 Source:Other) Sweet almost fruity nose. Clear golden with small white head. Sweet graininess with touch of fruitiness. Hops are very light. Ho-hum.

Bottle. Poured clear pale color with a large frothy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Moderate sweet grainy aroma. Light to medium body with a thin texture and lively carbonation. Light to medium sweet flavor with soft sweet finish of short duration. Worth trying once

Bottle on 10/04/2009. Very clear golden yellow body with a medium frothy white head. Sweet honey and corn aroma, slightly sugary. Sweet honey, corn and lightly caramelized sugar flavor. Medium light body with moderately high carbonation.

From a bottle. Yellowish gold with quickly disappearing head. Syrupy aroma with hints of grain. Sweet, syrupy, light, flat with minimal flavor. Short finish.

Pours a very light yellow; with a white head that doesn’t last very long. Cereal grain nose, no hops evident. Very thin body, light cereal grain flavor, with only a little bit of hops flavor and taste. Though I’m well past those days, this beer seems as if it were made to be enjoyed at a frat party; essentially, a beer that is inoffensive, but will get you buzzed. I’d put this beer somewhere in the same league as Blatz or Milwaukee’s Best.

Bottle. Yellow with almost no head. Light malty aroma, with some grainy sweetness. The flavor has grain and a light malty sweetness. Really not that bad.

Bottle. Pours a clear pale gold with a small diminishing white head. Aroma is grainy, slightly vegetal, with some sugary sweetness, artificial honey, pale malt and just a hint of hops. Very watery flavour of grain, corn and pale malt -- that’s pretty much it. Clean but very dull. Average bodied. Drinkable if nothing else better is around but it’s just an O.K. lawnmower beer and strangely enough, I even preferred the Light version.

Pale yellow color with a small white head. Tastes watery, bland, uninteresting. But hey, it goes down smooth and isn’t offensive. If you’re drinking a ton of ’em, it’s not a bad choice.
