Can at some new metal bar in Nashville. Many people on this site has said that this is one of the better pale lagers. I had not had this in ages so I thought "why the fuck not?" Pours pale golden with a white head. Sweet lagery and corny aroma. Light bodied with the typical macro carbonation. Flavor is basically sweet cereal grains and corn. I really struggled hard to pick up any detectable hops. This stuff is really not any better that the other mass produced pale lagers. I did not finish this. Terrible.

Poured pale golden, thin, yellow, grainy, malty, corn, little sweet, dry finish.

While not absolutely repugnant, this beer certainly isn’t worthy of much, excepting college parties and very cheap nights. If you accidentally bought a twelve pack, you can serve it along as a joke with the implicit suggestion that your drinking comrades have no taste. Palate is dreadful, too much carbonation; prickly, I’d say. Not much aroma, though when detectable it’s rather inoffensive. I could definitely taste some corn.

why am I even bothering to rate this beer? I must be drunk. Color: piss. Aroma: sweet piss. Flavor: old piss. Basically, drink a gallon of Milwaukee municipal tap water, then piss in to some cans and call it a beer. Voila! PBR! That being said, I drank my fare share in college and continue to frequent it’s ranks at BBQ’s and house parties. What the hell, pick up a twelve pack for old times sake!

Serving: 12 oz. can. Appearance: Clear, pale gold color with a foamy, white head. The head is gone in seconds and it leaves behind no lacing. Aroma: Grainy with notes of corn sugar and a touch of alcohol. Flavor: Green apple, corn, dry grain, and alcohol. Very watery. This is absolute swill. Palate: Watery with sparse carbonation and a light mouthfeel. Short, alcohol laden finish. Overall: This is complete crap.

I had this beer on tap in a pint glass. This beer had no noticeable aroma and tasted like a odd cross between un-popped popcorn kernels and rice cakes.
