Hamms

Brewed by Miller Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: Pale Lager
Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA

Found this canned in Rockford, Illinois. I feel dumb for having to rate this, but I actually didn’t think it was terrible. Light yellow, bubbly pour with canned corn and mown hay in the nose, and very little taste of any kind. Meh.

introduced to this by a friend of mine. it is the official beer of their frat. i think only because it is cheap. it definatly does not taste good

Pint glass from a can. Yes, Hamm’s. Everyone’s dad’s favorite, and I finally tried it. It was exactly what I expected, described bt gws57 as "a lawnmower beer." Light, mild, and probably consumable in mass quantities. The reason for the high overall is because you know exactly what you’re getting, and it doesn’t try to be anything it’s not.

Pulled this out of the mini-fridge in my Dad’s barn and thought, "what the hell, let’s put pen to paper." Drank strait from the can, so no noticable head. The nose was of sweet corn and grassy hops. The tatste started light, watery and sweet with a bit of a dry, grassy hops flavor toward the end. A suprisingly well balanced lager, even though much of the grain was corn. Very inoffensive, but distinctly indistinct. I was surprised this wasn’t worse. As it stands, I wouldn’t seek a Hamm’s out, but if my Pop should happen to shove one into my hand. I wouldn’t dump it out. A solid, average macrobrew.

As far as cheap american lagers go this is a pretty good one. Hamms has a bit of a corney sweet taste and is very clear in color. Being from the land of sky blue waters I feel like I need to give it some respect! Much better on tape then in the can!

CAN at Old Chicago Very pale and watery, very similar to all other lightish American macros. Clearer than piss light corn aroma slightly metallic finish.

Hamm’s pours a clear light yellow color, exceptionally effervescent, and topped by half an inch of frothy white foam. Decent head retention for a macro, and surprisingly good webby lacing throughout the glass. A light malt presence in the nose. The flavor is crisp and clean (the prevalent carbonation helps in this regard) with a lightly sweet cereal grain malt flavor. In the finish, there is just a touch of a hop flavor. Very mild beer, but nothing offensive.

Definately not one of my favorite pale lagers, there are many many better one’s out there.
