Very little scent on this one. Just a hint of malt as best as I can tell. Light golden color with very little head. Tastes rather good, albeit a bit watered down. Sweet and light bodied. Just a hint of hops. No off-flavors that I can tell. Very drinkable. I’d prefer craft beer when I can get it, but if I’m cash-strapped, I’d buy this long before any of the big things from BMC (I know Miller now contract-brews this, but still). Not a bad little beer. Inoffensive if nothing else.

Can, Gold Coast Casino, Vegas. Pours a very bright clear golden color. Acidic corn aroma, lots of sweet graininess. Sweet grainy malty flavor with a touch of pvc.

12 oz can. Still another PBR product that is just about the same no matter what label or can you put it in.It’s drinkable but nothing to write home about.

A light to medium body lager, little aroma or complexity, just grain dominates. Not much for hops, and hops taste low quality. A bit of unpleasant aftertaste, not in the way of the worst, but noticable. Tastes like a cheap lager.

Another no good beer. I have never seen it in a bottle which usually means one thing:Poopy.

Pee-yellow w/weak head. Really isn’t that bad for a lager. Beer than Bud, but comes off a little thick. Not amazing, but good for swill beer.

Typical macro pale lager, yellow-gold pour white head, aroma of grain, sweet malts as well as its flavor. Thin body, need i say more.

found this in my buddies parents house. thinkn it may be a bit old. havent seen it around for a long time. asked if i could pop it and try ...sure nobody else has in say 5+yrs. drank out of the can. probably pre miller, ooh! lala! nice straw color from what i can see, nose of really nothing. i think the top of the can smelled like the asparagus sitting next to it. sweet corn malt flavors and rusty nailesque undertone. tingly on the palate. what did you expect?
