Kochs Golden Anniversary Beer

Brewed by High Falls Brewing Company
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Rochester, New York USA

On tap. There is but a single reason that one should drink this beer (it happens to be the reason I do) - because one is broke and this beer costs either 25 cents for an 8oz draught or $2.50 for a 64oz pitcher. This stuff is an awful imitation American lager.. it looks like a lager, tastes vaguely remniscent of one, and smells like ass. The only thing it matches a standard (read: sub-sub-subpar) American lager in is palate, and that's just because American lagers suck. (you'll forgive me for being cruel, but Golden Anniversary makes me a rather mean drunk). rudolf and I decided to rate it this evening - we force it down whenever my band plays a certain open-mic night.

Draught. Smells like cigarettes with a tiny bit of malt. But maybe that is just because I'm standing next to qwak. No real taste at first other than sour. I guess some flavor is better than none, but not by much. Still, what can I expect for 25 cents?

Tastes almost exactly like Busch, not recommended. A slight metallic flavor. Drink up, if your broke.

Cheap beer in a somewhat similar packaging like Michelob. Tasted about the same for a heluval lot less. Not bad for the price but noth the best I've had.

Has a clear yellow color with some carbonation and a tinny, corn smell. Taste is also a bit tinny and finishes slightly bitter. Overall not the best of the cheap, but not that bad.

Watery, light, slightly skunky, very bland tasting. I have had worse beers...but this is the epitome of cheaper beers.

This stuff is garbage. The taste is very harsh and abrasive, wouldnt recommend buying it unless, you are looking for something very cheap.

Though this is a heavily trashed beer, I've had worse than this. Very cheap tasting, but what do you expect for the price? Somewhat corny and metallic.
