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.

What can you say? Looks and tastes like a run-of-the-mill lager. OK if there is nothing better to drink...

Pours pale golden with a white head. Faint malt taste but not much to speak of. Not much character at all.

I hate this beer. To me its bitter and taste like piss. It has no strong aroma and weak head.

Aroma and aftertaste are pretty good, taste not much of anything. So before and after you drink, it is a decent beer. For a pale lager, its got some flavor.

It’s not that bad , I bought a 24 oz. bottle... I tried this years ago and couldn’t remember it , so this is a refresher... It has a distinctive taste , but not sharp... It’s a good taste, no bad aftertaste... I’d compare it to Strohs back in 1979 - 80 it must be brewed in copper kettles?

A terrible lager indeed. Some lagers are just bad but this is plain awful. Avoid my friends.

During the Fall and Winter I tend to enjoy heavier and darker beers. I usually go with Red Stripe in late Winter to ease my taste buds into the spring, summer and Mexican beers.
