| 1.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 1/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Oct 11, 2005 Clear straw colour with a thin head. Grassy aroma with rough estery character. Grainy-sour flavour profile with a quick finish. There is a light hop flavour but no real bitterness. Carbonation not too oppressive, actually. Still, this is pretty unimpressive. demondrinker69 (33), Belleville, Illinois, USA
| 1.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 5/20 | Oct 5, 2005 This was a decent beer, it has a very good color and not a bad taste. It’s not a very cheap beer. About the price of a bud product. RAYBOY01 (1873), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 1.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 4/20 | Sep 4, 2005 Sweet corn is not the flavor I drink beer for...but it’s principally what you will get from this typical Miller contract brew. Not the worst I’ve ever had. desurfer (1069), Pinellas Park, Florida, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Aug 11, 2005 Yellow with a big head. Aroma is stale and rather offensive. Flavor isn’t too up front, just some background maltiness and mild hops. I wasn’t expecting too much, and that’s just what I got. DrnkMcDermott (1872), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jun 27, 2005 Bottled. Found this at an American Legion Post in Springfield, IL. So howcum they retire Falstaff, but keep teeny-tiny old man brands like this going? Perhaps because even though the demand is very slight, it’s at least constant, so they can sell all they make. Anyway, the girl who sold it to me said "if you’re diabetic, it’s okay." But I am finding there is at least some character to this beer. Yes, a pale yellow pour with a stabilized head. There is at least a taste of malt, and if it’s usuing corn, it’s not apparent. Very light, but detectable bitterness. Some sugar taste comes up toward the end, but otherwise a clean finish. For a budget beer in a smoky bar on a hot day, it is okay. heemer77 (4312), Savannah, Missouri, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jun 21, 2005 Had to go to Granite City in Illinois to find this gem. From the can. Poured a light gold with no head. The aroma is grainy bread along with some sweat. The taste is light bell peppers. It is pretty hard to get much else out of this brew.

| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Jun 19, 2005 This beer is almost my name! Well anyways thanks Heemer for bringing this one. A pale yellow color without much flavor at all. Very watery and corny. It was ok though. 21iceman40 (1731), vienna, West Virginia, USA
