This beer sucked, in ways I can’t explain. It was a mix of cheap malt liquer and a cheap pilsner. skip it, please

Poured a crystal clear pale gold color with a scant, fizzy white head. The aroma was decent, sweet sugars and very light spice. The flavor was a disappointment as apparently they mixed some ass into the recipe. I didn’t care for the ass flavor. It didn’t mix well with the bready, sweet and lightly spicy brew. Thin mouthfeel. Meh to the extreme.

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!

(Can, courtesy of Mar) Pours a clear pale yellow with a small fizzy white head. Aroma of mustiness, grass, and light floral. Flavor of corn, grass, and metallic with a dry finish.

can courtesy of mar. pours clear yellow with thick white head. Aroma of sweet malts and syrup. Slight metallic flavor with muted malts, not much else. Watery and thin. Not much going on here but not offensive.

(USA) Courtesy of AFI96, Thanks Waylo. Pours a golden color witha dissipating white head. Aroma is skunky,and the taste is slightly bitter and very boring. To think some people like this stuff is offensive.
