| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 16, 2007 This beer had a malt nose with no discernible hops. The flavor was pretty much the same without being either bitter or sweet. In a world of polarized beers this one is the "moderate", and will definitely not appeal to the neo-beer-snob crowd who like ales and dark beers that hit you like a truncheon. Nevertheless, I found it to be refreshing and the kind of beer you can drink all day in the hot sun while inebriation quietly and pleasantly sneaks up on you. ndfreak77 (76), USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 9, 2007 Poured from a bottle into a frosted Lager glass. Poured a golden color with medium carbonation. Slight bitterness with what tasted like a hint of black licorice. Slightly hoppy with gentle sweetness. Pretty decent. DarkElf (2681), La Jolla, California, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Nov 7, 2007 05-Nov-07 (12 oz bottle: BevMo in La Jolla, CA) Pours golden-yellow and perfectly clear, so the few dozen streams of carbonation are plainly visible. Grainy aroma with some corn initially, the beer is also on the honey sweet side. After a few minutes, cardboard begins to emerge in both the flavor and nose, and now that seems to be what I’m noticing the most, especially in the finish. Light bodied, but not watery. Medium carbonation. Not refreshing except when immediately out of the fridge. Half-inch white head settles to a thin ring. Overall, honey-sweet adjuncts and cardboard -- not exactly a winning combination, but I’ve definitely had worse pale lagers. robforbes (1085), Bremerton, Washington, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Nov 3, 2007 pour is golden with small off-white head, lively carbonation.
smell - faint, grain, slightly fruity, wet leaves.
taste - bland, slightly sweet, a bit of grain, the commercial description is pretty spot on, "...light alcohol drink with not too strong bitterness but rather soft taste; therefore, it’s easy to drink it up.", therefore it is only for getting drunk. not much here but not disgusting, i was able to drink it (as if it was water). :O)

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Nov 2, 2007 Very drinkable summer beer. Keep it in the bottle though. Looses everything once poured. NPRugby11 (82), New York, USA
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Oct 30, 2007 Typical pale lager, though preferable over some of the cheap domestic stuff. Has a bit of a fruity taste to it which is a pleasant surprise. Hammster (187), Eagan, Minnesota, USA
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Oct 27, 2007 24 oz. bottle. Poured a very dull gold with a large and bright white head. Weak aroma—just a hint of graininess. Watery and weak flavor (tastes so dull it’s like my mouth is full of novocaine) . Very dry finish. Tastes like sparkling water. Very disappointing. zathrus13 (1296), Mount Laurel, New Jersey, USA
