Clear yellow appearance with a small white head. Grassy, mild malt aroma, light on the hops, slightly vegatal. Clean, crisp taste, fairly dry, with a short lived finish. Just don’t let it warm up. Preferrable to a BMC.

OK ... remember what this is ... a Pittsburgh Bud, even a Pittsbrugh Coors. As such, it’s not bad, and even in the 1970s my friends always preferred this to Coors in a blind taste test. A little thin in the mouth, not much malt, maybe some Bud-ish cost cutting corn. But at least it has some bitterness. I can drink this if I have to ... although the last one was almost 30 years ago, and the next one may be 30 years from now.

Bottle/can not erally sure. Typical pale lager, golden color, faint aroma of some kind of malt. Watery, tasteless and otherwise lame. Just not very good. Packaging was cool, and maybe worth purchasing--but only once.

Clear yellow pour with a good foamy head that actually lasts a while. Corn and grain in the aroma and flavor, with a noticable touch of hops. Better than most macro’s.

Golden colour. White quick to go head. Musty adjunct ridden corn aroma and flavour. Sweet grossness. Dry palate. Not a very good beer in anyway.

Gold on colour with medium carbonation and a fast head. Some malty aromas to this one, along with a touch of corn. Fairly malty in flavor as well, with some faint notes of caramel and earthy hops. It’s basically a half-step up from your typical North American macro, but nothing worth celebrating. Cool aluminum bottle though. Thanks to radiomgb for the interesting extra.
