Ah, that old familiar skunk. Pours gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention. Dry and crisp with cookie malt and skunk. Nostalgia knocks it up a few.

12oz at a friend’s party. Overall not horrid drinkable, relatively non offensive.

UPDATED: FEB 5, 2009 Nice light golden color, not much head though. Almost had a bit of a white wine smell (not good). Slightly sweet, slightly bitter, like they advertise, but not much flavor. Pretty bland overall.

Tasted very skunky on first impression. Certainly got better over time, but still didn’t impress.

Grainy wet cereal and cardboard with a fair amount of skunk. Corny finish. I don’t like this one.

(Bottle). Blah aroma. Pale golden, tiny head. Mild, corn-like in taste. Bland.

SamGamgee (2451) - down the whirlpool, California, USA - OCT 2, 2008
12oz bottle. Light straw with a pretty stable white head. Touch of noble hop and light grain aroma. Light grain, hint of corn, and very mild bitterness. Pretty clean and inoffensive, with a light and slippery body. Better than most macros but still pretty bland.

Pretty standard drinker. Pours a pale yellow with frothy white head. The nose is sweet, bready, cardboard, corn, grassy hops. Decent bitterness in the flavor, grassy, cardboard, sweet, not overly offensive.
