I bought a six pack bottles for $2.99 in Southern Ohio. Poured the first cold one into a pislner glass. The aroma was faint hops scent. Little to no aftertaste. Flavor was very watery w/nothing special to remember. However, it served fine for quenching my thirst (ala gatorade) on a hot spring day. It was worth the 50 cents a bottle that I paid for it.

Really really bad. I can only stand to drink it out of the can, if you pour into glass it has strong stale vegetable aroma that makes flavor even worse. If you need a cheap beer go with Strohs over this stuff.

NOt bad while cold, but watch out when this one warms. Turned into a truly gross flavor. Typical corn rice chem taste but easy to slam. Not a bad cheapie.

I remembered this much worse than today. I had it in the can years ago, bottle today. A slight caramel taste, easy to drink, not the worst out there.

Light but overwhelmingly "something." Some hops, corn, chemicals. Doesn’t finish or taste clean. Hard to get down. But it’s local and its legend. And it has a mystique. I’ve visited Pittsburgh many times and most tavern-goers are very loyal to it. If you are drinking it in that great city it tastes like mother’s milk.

Clear golden pour with a touch of red, large lasting head. Hops and slight sweetness in the scent. More taste then expected but still grainy and watery. An average generic ’beer’
