Bottle. Pours a great looking clear red with a light cream head. Slight sweetness with caramel malts. Finishes short and clean. A beer you can definately slam down quick!

This tastes like many darker lagers that are out there. Although I do prefer this over Budweiser I will still take my dark beer over this one.

Just tastes a lot like Amber Bock only with a cheerios like taste. No seriously from what taste this brew has, it is very ceral -like. Come to think of it, It has very little taste period, and thusly can be drank rather fast ’cause there is nothing worth swishing around to taste .(Only drink this stuff if there is nothing else better ! ) Actually this beer is the beer I first tried a lot ( this and Blue moon) when I was just becoming a beer snob some 6 years ago!

Pours a clear red amber with about a finger of head. Slight sweet malts to the odor. The taste does sort of betray the appearance of the beer. There isn’t much of a taste to it, but there is a sweet taste to it that fades into a non-offensive aftertaste. It’s a decent session beer- cheap, not obscene to taste and... well, I guess that’s it.

Bottle. Pours amber with a foamy white head. The look gets you excited. You think you may be in for a flavorful beer, then you take a sip and are reminded of the harsh reality that it is macro crap with no flavor. George Killian should be embarrassed to have his name attached to this junk.

This is another one of those beers that I drank a lot of in college because it didn’t taste like urine and was still relatively cheap. A good beer to use to get drunk, being relatively light and still not at all offensive flavor-wise.

Smells nice and malty and tastes very non-offensive Perfectly decent beer to drink at a bar that’s serving nothing else but the standard macro fare. Wouldn’t go out of my way, but wouldn’t turn my nose up at a bottle of this.

A great introduction into a darker beer. its very tastey, but the difference on tap is noticeably different. i enjoyed it more that way. Pours a reddish brown, very attractive, usually with a nice sized white head, tight retention well balanced with a citrus finish.
