22 oz bomber shared with Maniac. Couldn’t make him do this alone. Very light pale malt aroma with metallic notes and touch of corn. Clear light straw color with fizzy white head. Remarkably light body and mouthfeel, with fairly sweet corny flavor. Finish rather sweet and sticky but otherwise unremarkable. Barely a hint of bitterness and no hop flavor.

Have not had this since high school, and there is a good reason for that; it is just terrible. The only thing that it has going for it is it’s APV, obviously a good choice for a poor high school student on a Friday night...

12 oz can with NJDevilz69 hanging out by the grill with the spiders.....skunky flavors and cheap adjuncts apparent throughout this experience...pale straw color with no head...only thing this beer has going is the pretty blue shade of the can

The only time I ever had this was when I was a bit younger, and even though it was the only alcoholic beverage in the house, I still found it to be horrible. Horrible.

A dark golden lager that pours with a1 inch white, thin foam head, which settles to a thin film in less than 1 minute. Very little bubbling in the glass. Arom is a of strong malt and hops and maybe some resin. The flavor is full and tastes like malt, hops, and corn, and a little sweetener. The texture is medium and a little gummy. The mouth feel is carbonated with a bite and a slightly harsh. The finish is malty and a little sweet.

Pours a uriney yellow and smells strongly of alcohol. Basically was somewhere between a Bud Light and Budweiser with higher alcohol content.

When I was underage and looking to party there was somethign about the Ice that did it for me. It was probably the stuff the deli owner was trying to pawn off on little unsuspecting kids.

Out of a tallboy can, I now refuse to buy a bottle colored anything but dark brown. Pours darker than a usual American macro pale lager, no skunk smell (thank god) but not much else there either- a little on the pour and nothing afterwards. Not much of a taste here. A little more than Bud Light, a little less than Budweiser. Really nothing to it, but it is refreshing in the same way water is. Not as much carbonation as some other beers, even the Blue Moon I had last night I marked down more for excess carbonation. For what it is, it ain’t bad, but in the whole spectrum of things, it’s trash just like the rest of the American macro pales. I have a Smuttynose IPA to try after this, so this is really just a warm-up brew for me on a Friday night :-D
