2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20Aroma is a sweet amber. Taste is a little weak with just an average malt taste. Overall very drinkable, but nothing special.

I had this last night. I could barely finish the pint. The taste was sour and had a metallic taste to it. I almost got sick! I had no idea who the brewer was until I did some research today. Well, it was Coors! This beer is really just Coors Original; I know that because I felt the same way after I drank it; Coors has got to be the worst beer that I have ever had, besides Budweiser! It’s a real shame, because at 1.00 per pint at Kroger it looked to be a great deal.
What is up with Coors? Why is it such a nasty beer?
Be forewarned!

Bright clear amber red with no head; sweet malty aroma; Flava is sweet malty; feels light and fizzy; finishes malty with slight tanginess.

Had this in a bottle at a friend’s party. A little more guts than normal for MC beers. Some light malt taste, hops hiding in the background. Not a bad session beer but nothing to really capture your attention. Probably MC’s best beer at this point so I’m disappointed they disguise the origin.

Can. Pours clear amber with fizzy, off-white head. Aroma is cookie and caramel malts, floral hops, light dates, and some funk. Flavor is bready malts forward with supporting toffee, floral hops, and some dark fruit esters; dry finish. Light body and medium carbonation.

On tap in McFaddens NYC. Deep amber coloured beer with a head. Nothing much to smell. Some malty character, a bit of biscuit, and a rather forced and slightly metallicy bitterness (which I have found in a few American attempts at a Vienna). So nothing special but perfectly drinkable.

Pours a clear orange with a thin white head. It has a sweet, slightly piney (but very subtle) aroma. The taste is of bitter pine with some bitter malt near the end. Tasty!

Pours amber into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Nutty caramel aromas. Medium balanced with caramel and dry earth front to back.

Can @ Camden Yards. Pours clear amber with a medium, fizzy white head, short retention with light lacing. Aroma is Vienna malt and spicy hops. Flavor is malt dominant with light hops and bitterness with a dry finish. Light body and medium carbonation.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Very weak aroma; just a hint of malt. Flavor is vaguely caramelly with a slight bit of hops. Not bad at first, but it becomes quite metallic - palate is not particularly pleasant at the end. Drinkable, but not by any means a tasty example of the style even while fitting the basic parameters. BMC clearly tried to ride the fence with this one, tilting toward the side of the macro crowd. This will likely not lead many people to craft beer - Samuel Adams Boston Lager is already the benchmark of the style, after all. I think this beverage is for people who are a little bored with the usual BMC offerings but don’t want the craft stuff.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
It’s light, somewhat general tasting. It isn’t horrible. Definitely goes down easy but doesn’t have much character. A regular beer.
