Bottle. Pours pale gold with fizzy white head. Smells hoppy and kinda citrusy. Tastes a little skunked, bitter, and finishes sweet.

This pours gols clear with a little head but looks crisp. The beer is almost skunky but not bad as the taste goes away fast after swallowed.

Drake (4803) - Charlottesville, Virginia, USA - SEP 22, 2008
12 oz. bottle. Dark golden wih a small, fizzy head. Aroma is major skunk with some grass and grain. Very grassy and corny taste. Notice the description says hop ESSENCES are added... not actual hops. Medium bodied.

(Bottle) Compared to other similar macro pale lagers, I think this one was sweeter, having a richer grain character and a creamy quality. On the other hand, it had less hops than even what is typical for a pale lager, and had less overall bite and was less refreshing. It tasted too heavy, and I found the sweetness offensive. Not my choice, but I’d take it over bud, and it was worth trying to know what it was like.

Crisp and light, yellow, skunk and a hint of lemon going down, still a fairly weak beer.

douglas88 (3483) - Salt Lake City, Utah, USA - SEP 4, 2008
Bottle from Utah State Store. Pours a clear gold with a medium white frothy head that quickly dissipates. The aroma is sweet corn and malt. The flavor is fairly sweet, and actually kinda boozy, some grains and malts, and a touch of citrus and a slight bitter metallic hop finish. OK, but not a good pale lager.
