12oz.Bottle. Golden color. Foamy white head. Strong aroma of a crisp German lager. Smooth and medium palate. Tastes of a standard English Ale. kinda refreshing. Decent lacing. A good American Summer Beer.
2.3 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 doubelknv3 (657) - Illinois, USA - FEB 12, 2007
Light Grainy / malty aroma with golden, watery appearance. Medium sweetness and light hops. Fairly carbonated front with dry finish.

Pale yellow. Palate was a bit creamy though I expected more from the name. Seemed to be a very average beer all-around.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20 MilkmanDan (1943) - Eagan, Minnesota, USA - FEB 10, 2007
Light gold, sickly grayish head. Nose of corn syrup. Then some corn. And then, possibly, some more corn. Flavor actually has a few hops in it much to my surprise. Is a bit vegetable/herbal, but inoffensively so, and the corn flavor is at least vaguely sweet corn and not rotting corn. Finishes decently thanks to the hops. Not slimy, has a decent palate. Surprisingly not complete and utter crap.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 sheatripper (863) - Brooklyn, New York, USA - JAN 28, 2007
Bottle. Scary Bud-like appearance--uriney yellow/gold and flat, though the head is a bit more sturdy and actually produced some striped lacing. Aroma not too exciting, basically straw or hay with some faint grassy hops, similar to a typical "import" lager. Light corny malt flavor with a slight sourness in the background. A bit fuller in body and mouthfeel than a pale lager, though it feels and tastes old and flat. Not really good.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 obxdude10 (1811) - Pottstown, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 15, 2007
Pretty average offering, not all that ’creamy’ but still pretty smooth & drinkable, pours a straw-like golden color, small bubbly head when first poured, but it quickly amounted to no head at all, only a little bit of lacing around the glass, nose of corn & rice with a little bit of hop character, nice mix of hops & malt in the flavors, but a little sour toward the finish, semi-sweet finish but mostly sour & an qusai-outdated flavor, but not a bad beer to just ignore & try to put a buzz on with a few friends
2.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 thefederalist (248) - Jonesboro, Arkansas, USA - JAN 15, 2007
UPDATED: FEB 6, 2007 Pours golden. Light malt aroma. Flavor is skunky and sour. Watery mouthfeel. Finishes with a funky corn aftertaste. Reminds me more of creamed corn flavored lager than ale of any sort.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 maltdog (587) - Pueblo, Colorado, USA - JAN 15, 2007
Rich gold of highly-polished brass with some floating dustmotes. Sudsy, lumpy merengue head. Nose of "lagery" (ie sulphur) malt and suggestions of fresh cornhusk, bublegum, and citric spice. Crisp and sweet flavor with honey and acetone notes. Some toastiness in both favor and aroma. Tart finish. Body is light without being watery; vigorous carbonation adds percieved mouthfeel. Nothing to get excited about, but a solid cream ale, true to style.
