Commercial Description:
Another classic beer produced by Pabst Brewing Company. From the land of sky blue waters, Hamms is truly the beer refreshing. Hamms has a legacy of quality and tastyness that is unrivaled by any beer known to man. Back in the olden days, Hamms was traded by the Spanish for spices and fine silks from the orient, which were then transported across the seas and traded for more Hamms

pours clear yellow, big white head which died down quickly to scum. whiff of corn, probably syrup. taste flavored with corn, grain and water. palate is weak water. not very good, obviously not complex. taste flavored water with maybe some alcohol if you can drink it fast enough.

Great uncle used to distribute it so I have all kinds of glasses, tin posters, tin serving trays, all with Hamms on it. Too bad I like the glasses better than the beer. Very watery, not much smell. Typical cheap beer.

Can. Aroma is corn corn corn and corn dust. Flavor is almost nonexistent. Watered corn. Body is like water. There is virtually no flavor. It is water with carbonated vegetable broth. Total swill beer.

Can. Brewed from barley malt and grain. Wheat? Kind of a warm grainy aroma. No hop to my nose. Golden color with a fizzy white head that ran out quickly. Rather watery and grainy? Like wheat? Not corn. Virtually no hop. Finish is weakly sweet, with an illusion of bitter. Must have been better when it had a brewery of its own.

A Good, wheat tasting beer for the money. You can’t expect a lot of flavor, aroma, or think head on this one as it’s a bang for the buck, although it has a decent taste. Not bad if you’re in a pinch.

Easily the most obvious example of brand mismanagement existing. Hamm’s was, in the 50s, 60s, and 70s, one of the great regional lagers. It’s passed through so many hands, and its distribution so limited, that the brand owners simply don’t care any more. Now it’s another Keystone.

...well, not much here, mild brew used to quench thirst. I can’t think of any other reason to drink this, I have never bought it, and never will. Better than bud at least.
