Sadly this was my "gateway" beer. We drank this stuff in droves back in college because it ws the cheapest mass market brew we could get. Now if somebody gave me one for free I wouldn’t drink it. I don’t think I’ve had one in 5-10 years, but I can still taste them and it makes me cringe. Pours a nasty yellow with a foamy head, with a stale, rank aroma that is like old garbage. And a taste to match. But you can drink 18 of them in one sitting if you’re 21 and determined. Scary. College kids shouldn’t drink,not for health reasons, but because they make bad decisions, like this.

Corn sweetness aroma. Golden appearance. Flavor is grain sweetness and a little crisp, but I think due more so to the extreme carbonation than any hops to speak of. It does the job. It is made for college kids and should be used for drinking games such as beer pong and quarters.

Swill, piss, drain water. Wouldn’t drink it unless paid a lot to do so, then I’d throw up.

Cheap, bland, some flavor. Unremarkable and bad, but maybe not as bad as its reputation.

Can, from Duvel tulip, at cellar temp. Big fading white head, clear pale amber body. Slightly less pallid than some other American macro lagers; the can says no additives, so I guess it’s actually malt and not coloring. Smells horrendous, I don’t even know how to describe it. It’s like a mad scientist tried to create artificial boiled cabbage in a petri dish using household cleansers for ingredients. Mouthfeel is identical to that of its competition: light and thin, yet somehow sticky. Taste is a bit more interesting than most; it’s not a syrupy soft drink flavor like Corona for example. Finish shows an every-so-slight bitterness, but it’s more chemical than hops. It is what it is: inexpensive swill meant to be guzzled from the can, ice cold.

GASP! I can’t bring myself to finish the brew. The flavor makes me so sick, that i want to vomit, and I actually vomited in my mouth thinking of this beer. It really is gross. It’s more gross than finding moldy bread.

Pale, thin. Watery corn flakes. I used to drink this stuff at my brother’s studio during jam sessions. When you’re 16, and desperate, and it’s less than 6 bucks a case, it’s world class.

There’s not much to this beer. Bland aroma, not much color to the brew, and as for flavor, it’s lackluster. Great for beer games or instances where you don’t actually have a chance to enjoy what you’re drinking.
