Commercial Description:
First brewed in 1938.
It is a light alcohol drink with not too strong bitterness but rather soft taste; therefore, it's easy to drink it up.

i don’t know why the average rating is so low, it really isn’t that bad. it tastes like a generic lager, like budweiser, or miller, but it’s better

This smells like a cheap champagne and has the carbonation to follow it. Taste tho, is corn and rubbing alcohol. Very Chemic and uninspired.

Color looksbland and it pours to a small head. Taste is bitter and you have to force to swallow it. I recommend this to someone you dislike.

Pours gold. No real head so no lace. Aroma is hops and grain. Good carbonation, crisp body. easy to drink. Taste of nothing special. Just grains. A little bitterness but pretty flat all the way through. This is the beer that I drank all through high school during the warm seasons. I know it’s nothing special or anything good for that matter. But this beer holds sentimental value to me. So I may rate it a little higher than it is truly worth.

Should have stopped brewing in 1939. Pours yellow. Smells of sillage. Tastes of nothing particularly good. Meh.

2009 Bottle - Pours darker than expected, gold, with a small white head...aroma is fresh grains and bright, no lager skunkiness to speak of...flavour is similarly crisp, ceral grains, toasty malt and a nice bitterness that lasts throughout...finished malty tasting but with a bitter bite...had this many times, but this most recent was the most enjoyable...

Bottled, Clear golden color, medium but well-visible carbonation, average white head, no lacing. Grassy nose. Aroma is light and malty. Flavour is flat and malty. Some corn must have been added here. Grainy aftertaste. I have drunken worse to get a new beer-country.
