Bottle; poured a dull gold color with a short lasting white head. Aroma of grain and bread, with perhaps some honey residue. Flavor was mellow and ok. Slightly sweet and bready. No hop presence at all. Like a bowl of cereal.

Bottled. Yellow with no head. Aroma is sour malty with notes of light corn and other grain. Boring light sweet and sour beginning ending lightly bitter. Poor brew. If it was cheap I MIGHT buy it again.

Pours a pale golden yellow color with a white head. Aroma is honey, vanilla, fruity, and some herbal hop notes. Flavor is honey, vanilla, fruity, and a spicy herbal finish.

Easy to drink and not entirely flavourless. Little head when poured, and a hidden hoppy flavour which you won’t find in most American macro lagers. More enjoyable and less offensive than most beers in its category.

Well, i bought this in a Calexico,CA gas station just to savor it, it was a good price for that much brew 2 dlls i think, however, i didnt expected it would taste so good. It actaully has a hop touch unlike most macro Lagers,very refreshing bitter and floral palate, kind of salty, carbonated body, with a good,lasting white head and a yellow body. ProbABLY will taste this again.

Bottle. Clear pale gold pour, white head. Aroma and taste of corn and grass. Ordinary, kind of a funky flavor
