Straw color with a bright soft peak egg white head. Sour cream with a touch of pale malt aromas. Flour water flavors with a touch of floral bitterness. Lightly fizzy feel. A light bitter linger. Boston raters seem to love it though.

Beer and caffeine...what a concept. I like the caffeine kick. It’s just too bad that the beer tastes like Bud rather than Arrogant Bastard. Oh well, you can’t have everything.

It’s a good beer I give it an 8 on my scale. For a beer with caffeine its pretty good I am drinking it now so I got a boost and I got wonderlust in the fridge. I like its flavor for what it is not the rest of the caffeine drinks it’s a beer and I like drinks but not a six pack of sour pill drinks!

Pale golden body with a soapy white head. Aroma has sweet honey and corn syrup tones and an odd fruitiness sort of like kiwi. More honey and sweet kiwi-lime in the flavor. Tastes like weak iced tea. Oily palate. Not a palate cleanser, but a pick-me-up between beers instead.

Pure genius! This beer (which i thought was a pilsener not a pale lager?) tastes good, is easy to drink AND gives you a great vibe!!! I tried it a few weeks ago at a promo here in Boston and now I make sure i have a couple each night when i’m out. Fun Times!

This beer tastes like every other beer in this category, after having a few others before it. They have this in the bottle at Summit’s. This beer is smooth, but with less caffeine than a cup of coffee and considering my tolerance for alchohol and caffeine this beer really did not do much for me. However it is quite refreshing and easy to drink.

My first new beer tatsed on my birthday! The night had already begun and I was feeling a little sluggish, but have one of these and you’re back in business with the caffeine. Light, refreshing, easy to drink and there’s a cute girl straddling a rocket on the label.
