24oz. can from convenience store for $1.59, amazing taste considering the cans of crap next to it were more expensive. Seems to be a regional thing here in Southern Illinois. Tasted decent, the aroma seemed a bit dirty or something, and given the price, its worth a try.

Stag has a thick, white head and a very clear yellow to golden appearance. Carbonation is high. Aroma is faint, but typical for an American-style lager. The taste is nice, with a tad bit more hop character than other beers in this style segment. Mouth-feel is light and watery, and Stag finishes crisp and refreshing. Overall, this is a good, solid beer, and I’d recommend giving it a try. It is not sold in Louisiana.

Pours a slightly darker yellow w/thick malty head that lasts a long time and leaves nice lacing on the glass. A very "beery" aroma. Smooth and easy drinking with some malt and bitter hop finish. I paid $5.49 for a 12 pack in St. Louis on July 4th, 2010. This is a very good beer at any price, but I’m naming it THE BEST CHEAP BEER IN AMERICA, beating out the old champion Schlitz, since Schlitz is no longer cheap. I’ve never seen Stag in Wisconsin, but I’m going to call a few distributors and try to find it.

If you’re looking for an easy-drinkin’, everyman’s beer, give this one a try. I love what I call "yard beers" and this one fits right in. Pours a pale yellow with an impressive thick white head and nice carbonation. Aroma is grassy with a slight mildew undertone. Nothing very distinctive about the taste, but it does go down easy. Definitely in my Olympia, Shiltz, Hamms garage beer rotation.

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?
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
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.
