Bottle on Honeymoon in Jamaica: Poured a yellow color with not much head. The aroma was of a beer. The flavor was refreshing, crisp and clean. Overall, better than most domestic pale lagers. Better in a bottle than on tap in Jamaica.

12oz bottle: pours golden brown with quick fading white head, aroma of pale malt and some specialty malt. flavor is lake a pale lager but has like an almost caramel flavor in the malt. the beer isnt that great but they get some points for not being like every other pale lager.

No love for the cool runnings of beer? I guess I just got a particularly good one. To be sure, there is nothing spectacular about this macro, and really nothing distinguishes it from the coronas of the world. What can I say? It’s fairly crisp and clean, not too skunky, and good with food.

I used to drink this a lot but haven’t had it in a long time. Didn’t expect it to hold up, but it’s actually still quite drinkable. I clean, sweet finish. Nice for hot weather drinkin’.

12oz. Pours yellow. Not much of an aroma, but I can tell you why people like this so much... the sweetness. There is a a slight rose petal, strawberry thing going on here. Also, the fact that it is unoffensive is probably why people gravitate to this beer.

Pours a golden color with a fluffy white head. Aroma is heavy malt, with slight grass and hop notes as well. Taste is the same, with it pretty smooth throughout. Not spectacular by any means, but I didn’t hate this.

i dont know if i got a skunky bottle or what but this beer needs to be very very cold. i drank about 5 ounces out of a 22 and had to stick it in the freezer. i get back to it in a few minutes but so far this isnt very good. nice bottle design though.
