BMan1113VR (6145) - Los Angeles, California, USA - DEC 8, 2008
Pours with a bit of head that fades quick and a light amber-yellow. Aroma of cardboard, grassy hops, and corn syrup. Taste is astringent with notes of wheat and metal. Not good. Fizzy and dry. Roomates were not to interested in me passing it on to them.

oldrtybastrd (3228) - Doha, Qatar/Great Falls, Montana, USA - OCT 30, 2008
Pours a golden yellow. Aromas of malts/hops and maybe a hint of some citrus. Nice sweet malt flavor with a good hop note at the end.

The best light beer I think I’ve ever had. Different than your average light. A little corn flavor with a nice balance of hops and malt... nothing overpowering or standing out here. 12 oz. bottle.

Shit, what to say about another pale lager. Light, sweet, not exciting but somewhat clean with corny notes.

Bockyhorsey (2590) - Mesa, Arizona, USA - JUN 28, 2008
12oz bottle. Standard corn aroma. Had to look twice at the bottle to make sure it wasn’t a Keystone Light in my glass. Light gold body with white head. Wet grainy flavor with some bittering to it. Decent light beer think this one is better than my swill Miller Lite.

cbkschubert (2685) - Cochise Co., Arizona, USA - JUN 25, 2008
12 oz. bottle courtesy of Bockyhorsey - Pours a crystal clear golden color with a thin white head. No lacing. Aroma is light grain and very light herbal hops. Flavor is very light grain with a touch of hops. Light to medium body. No unpleasant aftertaste. This beer is quite drinkable when compared to other Pale Lagers. Wish it was available around here. Thanks Bill.

Within the realm of light beers, this one rises well against the competition. Good full flavor with plenty of roasted malt representation, as well as some light hops in there. Not very attractive to the eye (very light yellow with much carbonation), it should be drunk from the bottle. Enjoyable.
