Narnad (1136) - Wonder Lake, Illinois, USA - MAY 6, 2009
Pours from the can a very light yellow, almost clear, with high carbonation, a decent white head that quickly fades. Aroma is very corny and sweet with no hops. Flavor is so sweet with corn and rice and makes the beer actually tastes like apple juice. No density to it at all. Overall the 20 cents I spent on the can makes me happy to not have more to drink.

widemouth 12oz can. Cinco de Mayo, 2009. Pours clear yellow, long lasting thin white head. Standard. Aroma of rice and canned corn. Flavor is very watery. Sweet like corn juice. Get this beer icy cold and it taste pretty good on them hot Mexican days. My 120th Pale Lager.

troopie (1557) - Munchen an der Willamette, Oregon, USA - MAY 3, 2009
Glass. Die vrou said I’m too fat and should drink this. Thin watery gold pour. No head. Almost no aroma. Thin watery flavour. I’m put in mind of that German song cycle, I think it’s The Happy Miller, where He’s singing "Das Wasser, Das Wasser." This tasted llike water. No finish. Next time dear, you drink this, and I’ll have the Pilsener Urquell.

Crushed with Jakebra. This beer is like if someone took a shit in a chlorinated pool, bottled it and added a drop of yellow food coloring.

Like the original...not very good. Bitter taste and finish, smells of corn notes.

SamGamgee (2451) - down the whirlpool, California, USA - NOV 20, 2008
12oz can. Super pale, clear straw, with no head. Light grain, straw, co2, and a hint of veggie in the aroma. Flavor: none. Seriously though, there is the lightest sweetness, but pretty empty overall. Clean enough, and better than many light american macros, ever has a light grainy element. In the end, this is damn near seltzer water, especially in the texture. easy to put down though. This would be a prime water replacement in a tropical climate. Some girl friends of mine swear by this, and I can see why.

UPDATED: SEP 20, 2008 (Canned 340 ml in Monterrey, Mexico on September 14 2005)
On restaurant "Monastrero"
Managed to have it before they mixed it with the lime juice, no idea what that would be good for?
Clear pale straw yellow color, white head. Not much goping on, a bit sweet and vegetable scent and taste. Thin mouthfeel, low bitterness. Mainly very boring.
Perhaps it did get better with the lime? Nah, mostly went strange...
