So you are saying, he has tasted this before…..correct. I just didn’t want to rate from memory. Not a ticker, drink as I rate. Let’s find out why this is referred to as nasty light at times by my daughter. Silver 12 oz pop top can with blue and red letters. No plastic slug inside, after all it is brewed for a naturally smooth taste. Color is regular old pale yellow as with any typical pale yellow american beer. Very little white head that fades rapidly and it has some carbonation rising here and there in the form of single bubbles. No aroma to speak of can be detected. Beer flavor of course and there is little there as far as personality goes. This is a non offensive brew that can be easy to consume. After each sip there are a few streams of bubbles that arise in the glass. Typical lager beer impressions but may have an interesting industrial background hint that sets it apart. It is definitely in the finish, too. No offensiveness in the finish but that refined odd hint hangs for about a minute. If you chug this you are missing out on what typical pale yellow american beer is all about!

UPDATED: DEC 7, 2008 [12 oz. can] In a word... college. Pale yellow, faint aroma, not a horrid taste, not much aftertaste. Good session beer for consuming immense quantities of at parties or lawn mowings.

can - Remember if and when you drink one of these that A-B charged actual money for this swill. That should be ample evidence that they hate you. They want you to buy and drink horrible beer. They also don’t want you to have any friends. They figure that when you’re unable to choke down the rest of the case yourself, you’ll try to pawn it off on your friends, thus losing said friends. Have some carbonated water instead. It tastes about the same. Soak a sweaty sock in your water for awhile first to make the taste even more similar. Better yet, save your taste buds. Keep some friends. Avoid this beer.

Just when you think you are getting a buzz, you have to go to the bathroom and then start all over again, it just goes right through you.

A little embarrasing to have gotten this from a fellow volleyballer, but when you are given one... you just take it and say thanks. Color was pale to clear. The aroma was light grains and sweet corn. The flavor followed, barely, pretty close to water and light corn grains. The mouthfeel was obviously light. Wow, refreshing is all I can say... if water isn’t available instead.

I feel dirty even admitting I have ever drank this. People who like this have no business rating beers on this site, as they know nothing about beer.

UPDATED: APR 25, 2004 Well as much as I detest these beers, I was given one today, and as I try always to be polite, I accepted it, as it’s been like 4 years since I sampled one, so what’s the harm. The beer as it pours from the 12 ounce aluminum can, it forms a transparent gold color with a bright white head and the lace a very thin sheet to cover the glass. Nose is all malt, sweet, fresh and crisp to the senses, start is lightly sweet, some malt noticed, the top is cadaverous. Finish has a benign acidity, the hops negligible, very dry, guess its better than dying of thirst, but only barely.

Beer for college binge drinking and hopefully nothing else. You get what you pay for with this one.
