Poured a golden color with a small white head and no lacing. Sweet, malty, corn, grain aroma. Grainy, malty, lightly sour, abbrasive mouthfeel. Extra appearance points for innovative aluminum bottle.

This stuff looks very carbonated. Nothing special otherwise, just another average looing lager. Aroma reminds me of hops mixed with detergent. Not pleasant tasting really, but not nearly as watery as I expected. Not that I it had my thinking malt or hops... Taste is strangely stale. No ingredient list on the can, but I'm guessing lots of corn and by now I'm smelling it too.

Just another beer that copies the regular old American swill. The new aluminum bottle really did it for me. Pale gold, lots of fizz in the short head. Lots of gas and club soda. Corn syrup and the faintest of hop. I’m so happy I get to try beers like this. Soley a number. Wow.

Average gold body with good carbonation and a thin white bubbly head. Fair malty/hoppy aroma with some flowery, herbal, and bready notes. Unexciting watery taste that carries some CO2 and metallic hints. Ends with an unpleasant metallic finish. The only cool thing with that beer is the bottle...

Way too sweet-dextrose? Makes plain lager drinkable though. Artificial candy aroma. Appropriately carbonated.Thin mouthfeel. Not worth finishing bottle

12oz alluminum bottle given to me by fatty (gee, thanks!). Poured a light and see through golden color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas and tastes of corn and grain. Light metallic finish. This one had Dan Marino on the back (I hope they paid him a lot to ’endorse’ this one).

Aluminium bottle. Nice fancy bottle, the beer must be good...right? When I poured it in a glass and saw the flat clear pale yellow I knew not to expect much. There was a large fizzy white head but it quickly dissipated. So there it sits with no carbonation and no head -- it’s not very mouth watering. The aroma of grain, corn and yeast was sour or off and unpleasant. Well after all that I am not dying to taste it but here goes: First thing I notice is how watery it is. There’s barely any taste at all, like a glass of water with a bit of crappy generic macro beer mixed in. A completely useless beer.
