Tasted in toronto. Tasted in english pint glass. Appearance is very light yellow, clear with thin head. Weak aroma, slight corn smell, slightly sweet scent. Watery flavour, thin, weak and not very good.

Pale golden yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of skunk, cardboard, funky malt and old hops-nothing good in this one! Light-bodied; Subtleties of sauvignon blanc in taste with a mild grapeyness, some light malt and a bit of fake sugars. Aftertaste is pale and unsatisfying. Overall, a bad beer but one I’d rather be drinking than any BMC product. Sampled after the Steelers lost in the 2004-2005 season. I sampled this twelve ounce ALUMINUM bottle purchased from Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia on 02-February-2005.

Arn Schitty! I had this in the dorms: a roommate from Pittsburgh brought some back after spring break. I won't go out of my way to find it. It's pretty bland.

Growing up, I thought this beer was good. That's before I had any other beer. Now I know better. However, I do drink it when I return to the Burgh'. I want to do my part to help the local economy. A little more flavorful than the mass produced lagers.

Watery bland taste. Strange after taste. I gave away the 6 pack my nephew sent me.

Came in one of those bottle-cans. Very clear and yellow. Almost no head at all. Very uninteresting with very little hop character and some grain character, but not a malty flavor. This is one of those beers that fits very well into the "domestic american lager" category.

Both aluminum bottle and glass bottle. Pours piss yellow with small white head. Smells like grain malt and a ltlle skunky. Tastes la little malty and grainy, with very little hops. Sweet and crispy. Not very good
