May 10, 2008 16 oz. can. Pours clear light straw colored with a large head of billowy foam, which leaves surprisingly good lace. Aroma is light of barley/grains and grassy and some noble hops. Flavor is marginal; starts decent enough, but ends with a metallic astringency. Relatively thin mouthfeel, but otherwise smooth. Aside from the metallic taste, a pretty easy drinker with a bit more character than most other macro styles.

May 2, 2008 My brew of choice for many years when young. Pale yellow color and thin body. There are more hops in the aroma and taste than BMC brands however.

Apr 28, 2008 12oz bottle: Pours a crisp gold with a paper thin white head. It seems the green bottle has does its duty here. Lots of grassy, skunky hop notes in the nose. The body is moderately chewy, filled with honey malt. Finishes with a nice fresh cut grass hoppiness. Nothing spectacular, but drinks easy and has a nice malt middle. Lose the dreaded green bottle and this might improve.

Apr 10, 2008 When I read "America’s largest selling Ale" on the bottle I thought I was doomed. It’s not a bad beer though. It’s golden in color with what was initially a pretty thick white head. That tapers off a bit but a thin head does maintain throughout. A slightly floral aroma but not strong at all. Taste is slightly sweet malt with an okay (mild) hop balance. It’s very smooth and quite refreshing, distinguishing itself from a typical "swill" beer. Now it’s nothing outstanding, or even really that good, more average, but I wouldn’t have a problem drinking this again.

Mar 10, 2008 12 oz bottle. Clear, light gold with a thin white head. As soon as I popped the cap, a nasty, skunky, Heineken-like aroma stung my nose. This dissipated after allowing the beer to breathe awhile, and turned to a sweet, malty, grainy scent, corn and honeylike notes. Sweet malt and a bit of buttery biscuit flavors, some honey. Marginal.

Feb 3, 2008 Arghh, smells like Heineken. Aroma a bit skunky and sweet at the same time. Taste is sweet and a bit bitter with that skunk essence. Very light and more drinkable than I expected but still not my thang.
