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!

It’s this simple: if you ever enjoyed the Drew Carey Show, you thought to yourself what it’d be like to drink caffeinated beer. This is such a beer.

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!

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.

Notes of water and rice. Very little/almost no head. A little sweet kick in the after-taste. Surprisingly not too objectionable. With the caffeine this would be a great beirut beer. Wish I had known of it back then.

Had this one at a beer fest in Hull Mass. Has a clear light golden color. Aroma is of malts and hops. Taste is of sweeter malts, hops, and grain. Has a little bite in the end.

Had this beer on 4/16/2006. Aroma has an almost dusty smell to it, reminds me of old dusty glass. Color is a bright clear gold with good carbonation and a thin head. Taste is light, smooth and sweet. Starting with a light body it goes down easy with a smooth feel. Finish comes on with a light malt flavor that is mildly sweet then ends with a faint bitterness. Other then the aroma it is a nice well balanced Pilsner.

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.
