Pale yellow color with a mediocre head. Aromas of mild hops and a little malt with a slight skunky aroma. Taste is mildly hoppy as well.

(Sample from August 25, 2006 Beer Club Meeting; 12oz bottle from World Market on March 17, 2008) This is usually what I get at a bar when the selections are Bud, Stella, Heineken, and some other American lager. I think I just like screaming "STELLA!" at the top of my lungs in public. Yeah, I’m sure bartenders have never heard that one. Pours a very white frothy head. Lots of bubbles. Has a semi-sweet smell to it. Standard pale lager color. Extremely light body with something in the taste that makes the toungue water - at least mine. Has a pretty barnyard kinda fume to it. This is probably one of my favorite lagers suited for mass-consumption, thanks to the fact that it’s available at just about every bar around here.

Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in Plano, TX. Pours a light straw yellow with white head. Aroma of malt, hop aroma has slight skunk. Flavor is pretty basic, malt, hops, very faint hop bitter. Mouth feel is light body with high carbonation....Overall, pretty basic import lager.

Skunky with a little bit of grassy/hay sweetness. Hop flavor lacking. The beer is watery, but relatively smooth and dry. Very average brew.

11.2oz bottle courtesy of Double D. German skunky smell though some mild sweetness involved. Yellow with thin head, kind of bubbly. Semi-sweet and kind of watery. Intense bitter aftertaste which lingers on. My first Belgian (sort-of) left a lot to be desired.

Grassy nose. Clear yellow-gold with a decent head. Very herbal and grassy with some spicy hop bitterness. Well carbonated, with a crisp finish, and a bit of lingering hops. Good choice for an easy drinking beer.

Bottle. Pours a golden yellow with a decent white head that fades away. Aroma is of hops and grain. Taste is of hops, a little bitter, kind of sweet and the finish reminds me of cream corn. Not bad as it is fairly smooth, but I didn’t care for the way it finished. Overall, this is a decent beer, but not that great considering the price and the way the commercials portrayed it.
