On draft. Little aroma. Pale lager yellow color. American lager with a simple light malt flavor. This is not complex, but there is a slight overtone of wood, which I find pleasant. A clean and easy finish. Nothing to offend, but not a full flavor or body. Better than some mass market lagers.

Sampled during Swig-a-Swill Guzzler in St Paul, MN. Pours a clear golden pale brew with a thin white head that slowly dissipates to a white ring. Aroma of golden grain malt, some citrus zest, grassy hops, and a touch of dark pitted fruit. Taste is light to medium bodied, some carbonation with flavors of golden grain malt, grassy hops a touch of dried fruit. Finish is crisp, clean cut with a light bitterness that slowly disappears. Actually, this is one of AB InBev’s better mass produced beers since they brought the all-malt recipe of the 1960s back.

Poured a pretty typical clear golden color, tasted pretty complex for what I was expecting, but still nothing special, pretty drinkable though.

Pours faint golden, with short-living bubbly head. Quite a fragrant aroma, of hops predominantly. And quite hoppy of the palate too, but a well-blended mixture, and decent fairly low-carbonated mouthfeel.

Bottle. Poured a clear yellow with a small white head. Aroma of malt. Flavor was corn, malt and a little bitter bite on the end.

Pours light yellow with a small head and is a better Pale lager. You get malt and hopps with a lot of corn and of course water.
