12oz bottle acquired in trade with ughsmash - thanks! Poured a lighter to medium and clear amber color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of grains and corn. Tastes of grains, lighter caramel, and lighter corn.

Terrible, awful stuff. Clear pallid amber colored body. Terrible cheap grain and artificial raspberry syrup nose, and basically the same thing tasted only it’s tastes more like air and water. No further comments needed.

Bronze color with a diminished white head. Hints of caramel and floral/herbal hops. I found that this seemed to have even less flavor than the Blond, which surprised me. Dry and watery, if that makes any sense.

Pours medium copper with minimal off-white head. Aroma is grainy malt, mild hops, some corny notes. Tastes a bit tart, with grainy, corny malt, some hopcitrus, and mild vegetal notes. Forgettable.

Sampled via 12-oz bottle at Cellars Wine & Spirits in St Paul, MN. Pours a clear light copper amber brew with a fast dissolving white head that dissipates nearly clean with a thin film top. Aroma of light multi-grain malt, some corn adjunct, and a light citrus zest. Taste is light bodied, with some carbonation, a thin multi-grain biscuit flavor with some kumquat zest and floral hop character. Finish has a light malty grain flavor, quite watery that changes to a clean cut aftertaste with no bitterness. The best way to describe this is not much different than regular Miller Lite (diet) beer with some amber color added.

Thanks to Bob for the bottle. Poured clear coppery amber with a short-lived cap of white head. The aroma picked up medium-skinned, candied fruits with way too much artificial sweetener employed.. caramel and corny sweetness not far behind.. warmth brought out the pale malts.. no hint of hoppage. The flavor was similar with corn, honey, and Splenda-ed up redder fruits at the core.. fell off mightily fast on the finish with wet grains and grass joining a fleeting glimpse of dried fruit. Light-bodied and watery at times on the palate.. dry with highter carbonation.. not too much going on.

Amber color with no head. Aroma of corn and very dry chocolate. It actually smelled pretty good, but... it tastes like a bucket of rainwater with a half pound of grain and corn left in it for a hot August weekend.
