| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Aug 27, 2008 Pretty solid for the style... and the price. Aroma is corny, grainy, and lightly fruity (apples, etc.) and the flavor is extremely light with not too many flaws apparent. Refreshing and drinkable. High carbonation and a color attributable to the style. Mklein818 (165), Etterbeek, Virginia, Belgium
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 17, 2008 The last of the old-school Minnesota lagers, but with a clean, fresh and none-too-bitter flavor that hearkens back to the days before fern bars and microbrews. To be fair, this stuff is better than a lot of ’pilsner’ types around the world, and as local lagers are an increasingly endangered species in the US, this stuff is worth drinking just to keep it around. zeke626 (303), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 31, 2008 Bottle, pours a clear, pale gold body with white foam head. Aroma of sweet malts and grains. Flavor is similar, albiet a bit stronger than the aroma. Medium-bodied with a smooth, slightly oily mouthfeel. Sweet grain finish with a slightly sweet and sticky aftertaste. A staple of mine during the summer. hero12 (61), USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 4/5 | 4/20 | Jul 13, 2008 Golden color like a typical american lager. Smells a little fruity but otherwise not much to the aroma. The taste is also quite fruity, which I didn’t really like. Overall not one of my favorites. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Jun 15, 2008 Poured a ridiculously clear golden colour with no head. Aroma was pretty bland, somewhat grassy and grain notes. Taste overall was pretty grainy with an overly malted charactertic. Finishes slightly bitter. inch4foam (4), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA does not count | 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 12, 2008 Updated: May 17, 2008My favorite pale lager! Very reliable,never been skunked with any of the clear bottles I’ve had.Great ice cold from the bottle....YUM! jayn (1), bradenton, Florida, USA does not count | 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | May 2, 2008 This is a simple beer that has tons of flavor. Especially when you pour it in a glass and get the head going. When going to Minnesota this is a must try. I do get the feeling the people there take it for granted though, but if you live in an area where you cant get it, (because Budcrap has the area held hostage and therfore will not allow other beers to be in the area or they will pull their contract) you will appreciate it all-the-more when you do taste it.

When its in cans it tends to loose the slight grainy after taste. This beer has a sweet taste to make it seem like a light beer but it is certainly not a light. If you get the chance to have this on tap drink up because it is a real treat.
