Genesee NA

Brewed by High Falls Brewing Company
Style: Low Alcohol
Rochester, New York USA

Can & Cock & Bull. Clear straw color with hardly any head. Aroma is water with a twist of beer. Very clear. Tastes like water with a little grain flavor. Actually tastes completely inoffensive. A little gassy but besides that tastes better than most low-grade macro lagers and fulfills "the lighter the better" in that department.

Very pale. The tap water here (Sarasota) stinks of chlorine; this has no aroma at all, period. It’s like I’m selling a black hole. Fizzy, a bit worty, hugely watery. This barely looks like beer, much less tastes of it. I would, however, drink this over a Pepsi, as there’s not enough in here to offend.

My 1st rating of a NA - it was sitting all alone in Albertson's - I felt sorry for it! No aroma whatsoever - which beats skunky! Not much head, almost see through appearance. More similar to a club soda than a beer - has a bit of a carbonated feel to it. Overall - no beer flavor to this at all - which is better than some nasty beers I have had!

Gold and fizzy beer with some appley hints, earthy, some creamy caramelly hints. Weird beer.

12 oz. can. Not so much a bad beer as it is tasteless. Pours a pale yellow with a heavily carbonated white fizzy head. More like tainted seltzer water than beer. As with most "NA" beers, grab a seltzer and lemon instead.

One bottle just cause I haven’t tried this yet. (BOTW price) I did not expect much as was disapointed. Almost clear in color, no head, slight aroma of hops. Light thin sweet flavor of malt with a bad aftertaste.

Who can expect much out of this? But it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Mild hops aroma, some sweetness in the body but 0 hops in the body and finish. Virtually no head and rather water. But absolutely no offensive qualities other than the lack of taste.
