Bottle. Oh, so pale of a gold, yet it has a decent, fluffy head. Aromas are thick with Beck’s like skunky hops and a mild ammount of grass. Flavor is a nice blend from skunk to soap to corn-like malt for a nice adjunct aftertaste.

Just a refreshing simple beer. It does’t have any sugar or salts or preservatives and for how the simple the recipe is, it does give off a unique flavor.

A friend said this was his "college beer" which happened to be brewed right near his school. That is what it should be -- a cheap session beer. That said, it does have some malty taste and decent carbonation to make it palatable. But it is just a basic cheap beer.

Given this by a friend, he said this was his coming of age brew. I tried it fresh, as a matter of fact, fresh from that day. It was honestly surprising for a pale lager. It was super clean, super crisp, with a hint of perhaps corn or maybe even strawberry. I doubt it was strawberry, but it left a sort of fruit aftertaste. Aroma was sublte, but present, probaly because of it’s freshness. Appearance was run of the mill pale lager. Flavor was smooth and crisp, with tones of either corn or fruit. It was exceptionally smooth, very easy to drink.

I didn’t care for this brew. no character, no real flavor. Very bland and watery.
