[841-20071121] 341mL (w/ jerc). Heather-like hops aroma has wheat, melted plastic and a strange perfume thrown in too. Clear, pale yellow body with a quick white head. Flavour has wheat characteristics, some sweet floral and almost silky chocolate notes. Smooth light body. Like heavily carbonated perfume water.

Bottle courtesy of tupalev. Pale yellow body with a small white head. Sweet grainy, grassy aroma with muted floral notes I assume to be hops. Sweet grainy flavour has mild vegetal notes at times, but mostly sweet muted grains, hints at cream corn. Overall flavour is on the sweet side. Average to thin palate. Pretty bland and watery. Mostly inoffensive, but why bother?

Bottle courtesy of tupalev. I can now complete my James Ready trifecta, thanks Jeff! Pours a clear pale yellow with a large diminishing white head. Aroma is sugary sweet along with grass, grain and very faint hops. Very mild but for the most part inoffensive. Flavour’s watery and practically flavourless, there’s really no point trying to discern what flavours are there as they are almost non-existant. Nothing foul or harsh at least, I guess that’s something. Really bland, there’s really no reason to drink this unless you really need to drink beer, you don’t really want to taste it and want to pay very little. I guess that’s what some people want?

This is now my Dad’s go to beer, so I get to rate it! Bottle. Light yellow, decent sized white head that clears quickly. Aroma of grain and grass, but no harsh - hardly really there to be honest. Taste is almost liek water - again not harsh, but so diluted it is hard to tell it is beer. I can see why he has converted from Coors light - it is cheaper, taste less harsh, and well, there isn’t anything else that’s it.

Had a couple of bottles of these after helping my bro move his new washer/dryer combo. Wasn’t expecting much and got just that. Little to no flavour but at least it was inoffensive. Not much else to say, really.
