Light gold colour. Fairly fresh grainy aroma with light fusel notes. Lots of fusel notes on the palate, though. Otherwise a little grainy, watery. Fairly plain, inoffensive, sweetish corn lager. Fun to try, if for no other reason than to say I did. Thaks, Slob!

Technically, it’s a beer.

Now that is really a nasty brew....beer....or "beer"...it really can not be called beer for sure as there is not enough malt in it for that! Dirt cheap though. Weak yellowish colour, metallic aroma, no head what so ever, flat cheap flavour with a hint of some metal and something uncomfortable. Best when really cooled! Nasty, nastier, nastiest.......Schaefer.

12oz can-pours a diminishing white head with yellow/pale yellow color. Aroma is grain, husky. Taste follows with a nice light/spicy hop backbone. Crisp. Good carbonation.

Chugged at a college reunion from the keg. Watery easy drinking the way college beer should be. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

Very poor beer. Tastes like a combination of dishwater and dilute lemonade. Not worth it at any price.

Can, at the Moan and Dove in Amherst MA. Though I didn’t drink this from a glass (it just didn’t seem appropriate in the context), I’ll give it a "2" for appearance based on that classic 50+ year old can design. Very little nose, just a touch of dank water...moderately sweet flavor, touch of metal but actually fairly drinkable...bit of garbage as it warms, thin and watery...not good, but better than I expected, I guess.
