COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
An iconic American lager famous for its rich amber color and medium-bodied flavor - with a roasted caramel malt for a subtle sweetness and a combination of cluster and cascade hops, this true original delivers a well-balanced taste with very distinct character.

On tap. Clear amber brew with a small amount of head. Aromas of grass, caramel, and grains. Smooth with a faint bitterness. No off flavors at all - a very easy drinking lager.

Bottle. Cat piss scent. Really, that’s what the aroma made me think of. Fortunately, the appearance was better. A medium amber, translucent, with decent head that faded to nothing, and zero lacing. The taste was a very upfront bitter, bread and earthy, with a dull aftertaste, kind of a stale taste, like you ate a tortilla chip about fifteen minutes ago.

Ser bättre ut än den smakade. Bärnstensfärgad med vitt lätt skum. Doftar lite sött maltigt men saknar nästan helt bitterhet.

På fat. Bärnstensfärgad med litet skum. Doftar svagt av karamell, smakar ännu mindre av det samma samt aningen av lime. Jag vill tro att det var något fel på förvaringen av ölen, för så här blek kan inte en så här anrik öl få vara.

Draft. Pours clear copper with thin off-white head; short retention and decent lacing. Aroma is bread malt, light caramel, light spice, and some earthy notes. Flavor is heavy bread and straw malts, faint grassy hops, and minimal esters; crisp, dry finish. Medium body and carbonation with low warmth.

My favorite "cheap" bear, I have never poured it, straight from the bottle it has a skunky green bottle aroma, more taste than the big 3 and it has a great dry finish. It isn’t 7.99 a pint IPA and isn’t meant to be. There is no better mass market lager out there IMO. I cannot get it in my state, but I my Ohio family knows they cannot enter my house without a few 12 packs.

Tap at Bleecker Street Bar w Erica, Derek (and tons of bottles/drafts over the years). Pours dark amber with a creamy head - nice looking for the style. Aroma is skunky. Taste is well balanced (although hops and malts are in proportionately smaller quantities) and palate is smooth and drinkable. A little skunked but still not offensive. Easy to drink.
