Surprisingly, this is a medium amber with a good solid head and an active tilt. Although it delivers the expected corn starchiness, it’s also has much richer caramel malt basis than I expected, with an apple tinge. Better than I could have hoped for.

Dark golden color with a soft airy white candle looking head. Aromas of grape peels with perhaps a touch of herbal hops. Sweet start in the flavors with corn grits and raisins. A hint of malt in the finish, but the body still shudders from the first taste. Light with quite a bit of spritz of the palate. I should have passed on this.

Golden color, thick white head. Smells like corn. Watery, with a taste very similar to that of your average BMC product. I was given this beer, I hope the person that bought it didn’t pay much for it.

Pours a brilliant amber with a thin off-white head with good lacing. Nose is suprisingly good floral notes mixed with Cheerios. The taste is initially very sweet, trending toward crystalline hops and mild skunkiness, with an unpleasant astringent aftertaste. Not great but also not the worst pale lager I’ve had.

Suprised to see this beer rated so low, it looks and smells good. Ok, so it doesn’t taste that good, but better then Bud.

Pours a suprisingly coppery gold with a foamy head resting on top. Aroma is similar to Busch, lots of sweet corn. Flavor is very macro-like, adjuncts and a bit of skunk. Very fizzy to the point it burned my nose on one drink, like a burp that exits the nostrils. The legend obviously doesn’t live on. I think maybe I’ll stay at Lemp Mansion sometime soon just to complain to the ghosts that the beer bearing their names is not good at all.

I am in the minority here, but I liked it. A nice amber lager, with good taste and very smooth, no bad side backbite. Great looking bottle as well.

Pours a nice golden color with a big white foamy head. No real aroma here. Flavor is very sweet. You get some malts in there but the sweetness overpowers. Not bad for a lager but at the same time not all that good. Way overpriced at $8 a six. I bought it on sale for $5.99 and that is even to much.
