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.

[bottle] Pale gold color with good white head. Mild malty aroma with a good initial malt taste. A bit watery but good and smooth to drink. Folks, people complain about it, but you cannot beat this beer. This was brewed for German steel workers. It may taste odd, but it is an acquired taste. Give it a chance.

bottle. cool aluminum bottle. golden straw body with a fizzy white head. lots of carbonation. corn aroma is prevalent and not entirely pleasing. flavour isn’t exactly offensive but one can’t really vouch for any distinguishing or interesting qualities. sweet malty flavour with bubbly carbonation. watery thin body. sub-par.

Chill and Swill at HDG every Sunday. Pale lager with a hoppy malty aroma. Corny notes. Malty and hoppy flavor. Thin bodied. Ok. Good lawnmower beer.

clear gold and watery looking. no head. sweet honeyish aroma. flavor is sweet with honey, butter and malt. maybe a hint of toffee and citrus. really not too bad for a pale lager.

Pretty bland, and light. Pale. More beerlike than most American Standard types, but not really better than most of them. I didn’t bother to finish it either - a couple of sips told me all I needed to know, and not being at all enjoyable, I just poured itout. Strange factoid: While in Philadelphia I never saw this beer, but it is available in several places in Wichita, KS. Weird.

Aluminum bottle from the <a href=http://www.lcbo.com target=blank>LCBO in Peterborough. Light gold in colour, dissipating white head, no lace, vigorous bubbles. The aroma was crisp, sharp, acidic, metallic with some grains. The flavour was very tinny and metallic, slightly sweet, corn. Malts/hops severely lacking. Bitter mouthfeel, very light watery body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes crisp, metallic and watery.
