Sep 7, 2004 A sweetish amber;enitrely drinkable and not too filling. Trader Joe’s brews are dependable fridge stockers.

Jul 5, 2004 Mild malt,hint of nuttyness with a dryish finsh. Not much to this but is was cheap,drinkable and still better than MGD(which isn’t saying much)

Jun 17, 2004 okay, this beer didn’t suck as much as i expected it to. smells malty and sour (which i take to be hops), and looks like an amber. taste is largely malt but finishes with some bitterness and leaves a sweet aftertaste. too thin...still drinkable.

Jan 20, 2004 A nice medium caramel color. Slight hoppy aroma. Not much flavor to be had here, slightly hoppy with some lingering sweetness.

Jan 4, 2004 Pleasant caramel and toffee malts. Palate was thin and very foamy - took away all of the good flavors.

Dec 12, 2003 Bottled. Better than most lagers. Nice hoppy nose, very thin head, lightly hoppy in the taste, aftertaste of soap, yet smooth. Drier than an amber ale.

Nov 21, 2003 Amber colored liquid w/ quickly diminishing white head. Heavy caramel malt (expected) aroma and a slightly grassy hop, and even a little toasty. Well balanced w/ toasty and caramel malt with some hop flavor in finish and aftertaste, otherwise pretty clean. Nope, I take that back, there is a diacetyl in the finish as it warms. Also finishes on the dry side. Lighter body and moderate carbonation. Very drinkable, but not terribly complex. Not something I'd seek out, but not bad to have if it's sitting in front of you.

Oct 31, 2003 Ok this is very "Macro-American" tasting which is not a compliment when it comes to beer styles. Yet it transends its style by having a good flavor and rich color. Very much like a Killians but a little more bitter. For 77 cents the best cheep beer I have had but would not hunt for it
