(12oz can, courtesy of Fratto) Pours a clear pale yellow body with a medium white head. Aroma of corn, mustiness, and light soap. Flavor of corn, grass, and grain with a clean finish. Honestly, one of the less offensive lagers that Fratto has shared.

Oh baby. What a masterpiece of corn and ethanol.

Can (sampled: Merida, Mexico 24.2.2004)
Color yellow, nice foamy white head. Aroma yeasty, crispy and lightly alcoholic. Taste watery. Copy of basic Old Milwaukee - just water added.

Can from Party Source, KY. Pale color with a minimal white head that diminished quickly with virtually no lacing. Light sweet grainy aroma. Light body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Light sweet flavor with a short sweet finish. Cold wet alcohol with little character.

Bottle at the Hagerstown Suns Beer Tasting. Lots of leftover tickets. Had to give it a go... Clear, light yellow with a mid-sized, frothy, white head. The aroma and flavor are mostly nondescript other than very tiny notes of grains, lemon and peppery hops. Light-bodied and fizzy. Crisp, clean finish.

Fratto party favor. Pours with a clear, pale, yellow hued body with a fading white head. Aromas of corn, mild DMS, seltzer water. Dry. Not very characterful. Flavors are watery and dry, mild grainy. Lively bubbles, watery dry. Pretty inoffensive light beer.

I wanted to just type in "worse than piss" but that isn’t enough characters...so I had to type other stuff too!

Cheap, smooth, refreshing - all the beauty of a normal Old Mil minus a few carbs and calories.

I like this one slightly more than the regular Old Mill. Still, I wouldn’t consider it great, or even very good.
