Had these puppies straight from the 12oz can. Tastes like water, cruddy malt, and adjuncts. Could be worse... could be better.

Pours a golden color with a medium head and some lace. Aroma is grainy and corny and generally unappetizing, but somehow inoffensive. The flavor is classic pale lager corny and mildly sweet but straightforward and not wholly awful with some mild hops and not an over abundance of sweetness.

Can, 12 oz. Light yellow. Weak aroma, chemical like. Weak, non distinct taste. Drinking very cold improves taste. Seems like a strong alcohol content. An unimpressive poor. A typical cheap American beer.

12oz can purchased at Shaw’s in Derry. Pours a crystal-clear light hay-yellow body with a good inch of rim-hugging off-white head that slowly dissipates. Cereal grain dominates the aroma - malt and corn most notably, with just a hint of citrussy grassy hops. Tastes sweet, with cereal grains and cooked corn initially, and a bit more hops than I’m used to getting from the style, expressing themselves mostly as a grassy citrussy presence toward the finish. Finishes clean, as it should for the style. Nothing to complex or profound, but a simple easy drinking macro-style lager that’s better than most, and a good quaffable brew for hot summer days like today.

Can at the in-law family re-union. Whew. Sickenly sweet malt with a nose of wet grain and semi stinky socks. Looks like urine in a translucent plastic cup. Cuts thru the thirst but certainly does not satisfy it. Hucklebuck brews.

Can. Very clear pour, only slightly yellow in color. There isn’t much more than water with an off flavor.

Sampled from a 12 oz can this beer poured a bright yellow color with a huge soapy white head. The aroma was sweet, tangy, corny industrial lager. The flavor was tart, tangy and a little bitter with corn and faint hops underneath. The finish was long, tart, tangy and sweetish. By industrial lager standards this one was pretty good.

Cheap, basically tasteless beer. Goes down relatively smooth, but there is no characteristic that would make me want to drink this.
