Can. Clear golden, moderate soapy white head. Clean pale malt aroma... at least it isnt stinky. Grainy palate with a tinny metallic note in the finish. Not awful but pretty lifeless.

Bottle. I’ve never seen this is a bottle before. I feel like I should put on a Franco Harris jersey and wave a Terrible Towel while drinking it. Pours a clear yellow with a 2 finger quickly dissipating snow white head and spotty lacing. Nose is grain and light hops. Taste is malt, some light hops and a slight metallic finish. Light mouth feel. Not good.

Draft at Horse Brass Pub, Portland, OR. Pours a clear pale yellow color with a small white head. Has a sweetish malty grainy corn aroma. Sweetish grainy corn flavor. Has a sweetish finish with some grainy hints.

Bottle. Poured pale yellow with fast dissipating head. Aroma of adjunct and malt. Thin malty flavour. Almost no finish. Cheap, but not good cheap.

16oz. Pours a clear straw body with a white head. Aroma is fairly muted... mostly sweet corn flakes. Body follows with similar flavors but a surprisingly malty presence. Has a very bad rap, mostly from Pennsylvanians... I didn’t think it was that bad.

I grew up on this stuff. Aroma of corn, light hopes. Urine pale yellow (the color its supposed to be, yes?) Has a slight flavor.
