| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | May 16, 2004 Yes! This gorgeous beverage poured a golden-yellow color reminiscent of the evening sun dabbling light on the rippled sands of Lake Michigan’s dune country. The whitish head, you ask? The frothing, biting advance of the whitecaps onto the sandy shore. The malty, corny and sweetish aroma and flavor? Why, haven’t I convinced you already? Just make sure you tread the dunes as softly and smoothly as this beer treads my palate. And may the dune grass kiss your feet as the hops embrace your tastebuds. ukntcme (20), Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/20 | May 13, 2004 I like stouts and ales. Lagers are cheap and thats how they taste thin and cheap. But I prefer Iron to Bud and the other lagers in the same price point. TheBeerGod (3147), Newport News, Virginia, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | May 8, 2004 Gold body with a small white head. Aroma is sort of corn syrupy with some bready notes. Taste is malted with more corn and lightly hopped. Crisp finish and mouthfeel due to the hops and carbonation. Not as bad as expected, but nothing worth going out of your way to find.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 3, 2004 This is a decent lager, kind of light and barleyish - kind of tastes crisp and refreshing, actually. It’s of course not great, but it *is* underrated. From Pennsylvania! My dad’s friend brought it down. MilkmanDan (1940), Eagan, Minnesota, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/20 | Apr 30, 2004 I just sort of naturally assumed it would completely and utterly suck, but really isn’t all that bad. Clear gold. Nose a bit grassy, some doughy malts. Flavor is reasonably smooth, not skunked, and chock full of corn, but not unpleasant or harsh in any way. Granted, I was tired and hot after shoveling dirt into a garden box, but all-in-all I could actually drink this on a hot day without too much trouble. jeffc666 (1889), Fairfax, Virginia, USA
| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Apr 18, 2004 Very clear straw with a white bubbly head. Minimal malt aroma. Flavor is adjuncty but not too bad (at least compared to my expectations).Light fizzy body. Thanks Dan! (I guess) argo0 (6890), Washington DC, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Apr 17, 2004 Slumming at Dan's bday party -- upon arriving Dan offers me this gem of a beer, in anticiaption of #2K. Clear straw body with small-medium white head. Aroma is light, bready, grassy. Taste is the same -- innocuous and non-offensive. Light body. Not as bad as I feared.
