(Bottle) Purchased at Spinnakers Wine Merchant for $2.95. Pours a large, quick dissipating, white head atop a pale gold body. Nose of watery grains. Flavour is thin, grassy with a mild lemon finish. Poor.

This beer poured golden with a somewhat unpleasent aroma, not sure if it was a bad bottle or not, but it reall turned me off. IT was wierd and overly skunked, not a whole lot of excitement going on, but i finished it off.

This beer was a surprise to me. Especially considering how it got ripped to shreds on this site. I generally don’t like pale lagers. This one actually wasn’t bad. It had the strange quality on being better when it wasn’t as cold. When cold, it’s not much different than a standard pale lager, like Bud. When a little warmer, the aroma has this strange malty and corn sweetness to it. The flavor also benefitted the same way. I believe the sweetness was the corn sugar. The beer become substantially cloudier when warmer as well. I’m not sure why this is true, but I have to say I liked the beer more than I expected.
