Really cool bottle. Somehow managed to get lightly skunked even though there is no way light could get in... Maybe it was done on purpose at the brewery. Sweet malt, sour fruit, and light skunk combine. Looking past the skunk, there might be a beer similar in taste to Fat Tire or Dos Equis.

Keith-Well, for a heap lager I guess its ok. Metal "bottle" caught my eye. This beer is light on aroma and head. The taste is also weak with a hint of sweetness brought on by the malt. You get what you think you are going to get on this one.

Pours with a white head that fades quickly, leaving no lace. Light carbonation. Clear amber color, light bodied. Nose is a faint apple. Starts malty, hops are in the background, finishes with hints of apple/lemon. 95¢ for a 12 oz bottle from Vintage Cellar Blacksburg, VA.

Pours the expected golden yellow with a quickly fading white head. Grassy aroma. Taste is that of a typical macro lager: grainy with rice, corn. However, it does have a little more malty sweetness and body than BMC. Thin and fizzy on the palate but to it’s credit, there’s a hint of taste on the back end. Not good, but not offensive by any means either.

Slightly dark gold color. Thin white head. The the aroma is malty with grass and the sweetness of pears. The taste is light and inoffensive. It has some dirt and a little bit of bread. Not much else going on.

nice overall beer, faint scent of something, nice color with snow white head that dissapates quickly.tastes of malt and corn with something of a hop nip at the end, not strong enough to be called an actual bite. The fact that I am watching the steeler/eagle game probably helps this beer on a nostaglia stand point
