Poured a mid gold with a decent head that faded to lace. Aroma was of sweet malts and grains. Taste was of malts, grain, and heavy alcohol. It seems very similar to LaCrosse lager which is produced at the same plant. Palate was decent. Overall, not too bad but nothing to write home about.

Tall boy canned @ home picked up at Argonaut for $1.39 poured into my Avery Sour Fest snifter. Pours a clear orange appearance with a small white head. Spicy apple cider with plenty of cinnamon sticks. Pear, apple, light garbage juice flavor. Pretty Fucken smooth.

It is a cheap beer but it is bearable and gets the job done. For the price it is one of the better bargain beers.

40oz , clear, screw-cap, bottle. Pours gold color. Aroma of apple, corn, and alcohol. Flavor is smooth. Very nice. I was prepared for the worst. And I’ve had bad! Sweet sugar, a good amount of corn. Oh, and its strong.

crossovert (4596) - Wisconsin, USA - SEP 27, 2011
40 oz bottle. Straight form the bottle (though I poured most of it for someone else). It pours a deep gold with a fluffy white head that dissipates moderately quickly. Smells like corny mead. Lots of honey and alcohol and caorn in the scent. The flavor is pretty shitty. On the front end it isn’t bad, mild grain and hops but on the back end it is adjuncty and sickly sweet. The mouthfeel is prickly at first then seems watery. This is just a malt liquor contract brewed by a nearly anonymous and small marketing agency. Who knows it might share recipes with other or just have a minor tweak, it is run of the mill.

Bottle on Zwanze Day WLV. Why? Pale gold with no head. Nose smells like bum wine and corn. Really gross and unpleasant. On tasting, sweet and boozy with a weird berry note. Vile stuff...
