This beer really isn’t that bad... no funky aftertaste and it doesn’t make me cringe after every drink (like most mass market American and Mexican beers). A ringing endorsement? Probably not, but it’s a nice plain beer with no funky crap in it.

Out of a Ice Cold bottle. Light gold in color, white head and some lace. Nose is malt, the start sweet, the finish is dry, lightly hopped. I enjoy this beer.

Six pack, clear bottles from local gas station... poured into a clear plastic cup, smells great right after pour then... nothing... tastes dry... like air, pretty flat stuff. The 6%ABV would be the only reason I would by again. Cheers!

Bottled Pale golden with a very brief, white head. Sourish and grainy maize; more like cardboard.
