Aluminum bottle. Color and aroma typical of the rare American Pale Lager. Wispish white head, quickly fades to a ring. Mouthfeel is water, fizzy water. No flavor to speak of. How does one produce this effect?? To make something this damn bland requires effort.

Enjoyed during the AFC championshop game. Had a caramelly flavor that I thought was actually a nice change for pale lager. If you are swilling. Iron City will do in a pinch. Has sort of a cult following for the transplanted Pittsburgers here in KC. I’d choose it over some.

40oz. Another crap beer. A little better than BMC, but what does that say. Basically it was less offensive. You can drink it, and you can finish the 40, but it’ won’t be fun.

Well done aluminum bottle. Pours with an abundant head. Nice sparkling golden appearance. Aroma is not pleasant. Corn and hopless. While no flaws were apparent. It seems like a lot of work for something mediocre at best. If you have the brewing equipment and the malts available and it’s not going to cost any more and it may increase your potential market, why not cut out the corn and adjuncts and do something interesting like adding a touch of wheat, or Saison du Pont yeast?

haha the can says it all with this beer- bland, not very good, beer. if you could find a beer in a can that was white with black letters that said nothing but "beer" this would be that beer.

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.
