Loses a point just for changing the label. No, it likely can not afford it. Light straw color with a wispy white head that disappears quickly and never to be seen again. Sweet aromas of white grape juice and just a hint of floral hops. Thin and fizzy feel. Quite sweet in flavor with more floral and perfume flavors than malt and hops. Actually tastes like a thin and weak malt liquor. Very late in the linger some malt is present and is quite pleasant, but I need that in the flavor. Loses some history with the label change, but marketing is marketing and pretty sells. Oh wait, maybe if it was good beer as well it would sell.

From a can. Very light yellow color. A large head that dissapates quickly. A slightly skunky aroma of grass and dirt. The taste is a light dirt and carrot. Not much else. Not too offensive.

Skunky aroma, head depends on how shaken up the can/bottle is, and palate is somewhat abrasive yet harmless. The swallow is refreshingly easy, and makes for a great session beer for the money (it got me through the first half of college). The fourth one tastes the best. Enjoyed in the returnable bottle. I might try this again. Not a connosieurs’ beer. (Note that this is only the fourth review in the past two years!!)

This poor excuse for a beer poured an extremely light goldeny yellow color. Once again, yellow dye number 4 would have added more color to this beer. This beer was headless in a hurry with a corny, stale hop aroma. I mean this stunk! Flavor-wise we are absolutely not missing much. Very watery and extremely light bodied with no carbonation at all hardly. It’s almost as if I was drinking grass....it tasted green man!!!! Thin and dry, never again worth my time!

Pours with a very pale yellow body with little head or lacing. The aroma and flavor are slightly sweet yet sour and a little bitter with a slight malt note. Light bodied, smooth and watery.

Not much to describe in this one. The aroma is outright foul and smells like a pig! This is Miller Lite in a different can with a tad more malt. Bah whatever
