| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Feb 8, 2010 at the Tin Can Tavern in STL. Figured this is a local standby in the area, I’d give it a go. Pretty clean tasting yellow lager with a little funky hop skunk in the nose. Drinks pretty good, don’t it? ChainGangGuy (2703), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 16, 2010 Appearance: Pours out a clean, thin-looking, yellow body with a wispy, equally thin-looking, white head.
Smell: Faint aroma smelling only lightly of exceptionally pale malts and spicy hops. Again, it’s all quite mild, mind you.
Taste: Lightly sweet, lightly watery cereal grains with a bit of grainy astringency to it. Fairly light hop presence with no more than a hint of bitterness. Finishes dry with a little snap of crisp carbonation.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium-plus carbonation.
Drinkability: A simple, inoffensive lager, no more no less. Basic but sufficient, I suppose. kp (8600), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Sep 15, 2009 12oz can, gold colored retro label with a Stag head on it. I found a 12pk of this in a Missouri gas station next to a Jack in the Box for $5.99. A beer hunting offer i could not refuse! Yellow pour, white head. Aroma of straw and synthetic lemon zest. Medicinal flavor with some floral hops. Astringent bitterness, finishes like a paper napkin. Watery bodied. I could see how this was a beer to go to in the 1850s. As culture has changed, so has quality of beer. Or maybe at one time it truly was a good beer. I don’t know, I’ve got 11 more of these. blah. TKA300 (104), Carbondale, Illinois, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 15, 2009 Honestly, one of the least offensive cheap, pale lagers I’ve had. The taste, the can, and the atmosphere that is instantly created while enjoying a delicious, golden Stag is unbeatable.
