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.

Bottle into glass. Smells like spicy cereal. Pours golden amber with small white head. Mouthfeel is medium. Tastes like heaven in a bottle. This is my "go to" feel good grass cutting beer.

On tap at the local Red Lobster in Fort Pierce for Mother’s Day meal - and in Billy’s honor. Pours orangey-red. Aroma has malts, bread, some earthiness. Taste follows, sweet malts with a bit of fruit. Shrug? Not a good one, but one to have for Bill.

Paid $1 for a 16 oz can at Kroger. No aroma to speak of. Taste was yeast, cornflake, cardboard, with an unpleasant metallic aftertaste. Light thin body with average carbonation. Was curious to try this since it’s new to Ohio. Glad I only got one can.

Bottle/can. As a Philly boy I had to put in a review for "our beer." Better than the macros, but I wouldn't recommend it either.

A friend brought me two 24 can packs back from Ohio. After proper chilling, I poured one into a pint glass and saw the nice amber color with an impressive head that took a couple minutes to die to nothing. Very little carbonation. Aroma was a malty. Taste was disappointing. Really a macro type lager. It'll be a long time until I kill these cases. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Amber color out of the tap with a short lived white head. Light corny nose, but it is served cold in a frozen glass. Thin beerwith some caramel sweetness, raw grains and white sugar. Something metallic in the finish. I’m just not a fan of this beer.

Slight aroma of bread and honey. Pours clear yellow colour with minimal head. Slight bitterness without much flavour other than that of a typical big-brand style lager. Medium body with very subtle creamy texture. No sensation lasts long on the tongue. Overall, ok for a beer that requires no attention except for the energy needed to lift the bottle to one’s mouth

This is not bad. This is a good one to drink while mowing the lawn. Easy to drink. This would have been nice back in my drinking days.

Pours a copper color with a big white head. Not much aroma except for a little malt. Taste is sweet with caramel with a dry finish.
