Commercial Description:
Modeled after the style of beer produced in Baltimore just after Prohibition. The beer is pale in color, is made with 100% malt, and has a very mild Hersbrucker hop character. A great example of the kind of beer our grandfathers consumed.

I had higher hopes for this but it turned out to be very average, not bad, but not good. Your standard lager with maybe the tiniest hint of hops toward the end

Yes, this beer screamed "No flavor" when i saw it being poured by the bartender and just like most other pale yellow, clear, watery looking beers it did not disappoint.

Bottle. Light orange/dark yellow color. Roasted aroma. Sweet flavor, and a nice finish. Pretty good standard beer.

Bottle-Pours a clear, sparkling golden color w/almost no head. Toasted/roasted sweet aroma. Sweetness up front w/a bitter, long refreshing finish. Not anything fancy, just a good refreshing lager. Definately one you can sit down, have a few, & enjoy.

As far as the lager segment goes this does fill the order. I never find lagers to be complex or have much distinction in flavors. This is a good basic version that I am suprised got such poor reviews. Most lagers I give ratings based on their drinkability and return value, and I would still return to this over a Bud, or a mass produced.

I thought this was pretty boring. Not much maltiness and some stale hops. Mostly just dry without much flavor.

$1.49 FOR A 12-OZ SINGLE (BOTTLE). Pours golden with a small white head. Not much of an aroma at all. Flavor is light and uncomplex. Finishes bitter. Bland as hell, but drinkable.
