Beer actually pours quite nicelly into the glass..large foamy head that sinks somewhat but persists..good golden coloured beer..attractive looking carbonation. Smell is barelly tangible what is present is an aroma of sweet malt. Actually not too bad a taste either..nice malty taste at first then further on a goodish hop bite,,its semi-dry..quite nice Pretty good in the mouth feels good on the tongue good after taste.. All in all a very drinkable beer,,espesially in the hot days of summer

A disapppointing beer. Reminded me of a middle-of-the-line macro lager (see Michelob). Light maltiness and moderate, drying hop presence, but the aroma and flavor seemed a little cheap to me, as I thought I detected corn in both. The flavor that's there is decent, but unimpressive. Nice gold color, however.

This is a fine fine beer. It has a rich Hopps taste which beats the watered down lagers. Plus, my local beer store is having a special on them. ($12.99 a case with a $4 rebate.

Mediocre beer at best. Agree with the fact that there is very little head or lacing. Nothing exceptional about the body or appearance. Taste is subtly sweet. A nice aftertase also exists. Very little body.

Uninteresting lager, a tad sweet but watery. Deeper hue than most lagers, but that is not a hint of flavor. It's a light beer.

Thin, no lacing, head went to helles in a hurry. NO aroma. Ever so slight, (I had to strain my tastebuds) caramel malt flavor hinting of vanilla. Dull beer. Lacking any character whatsoever.

This brew poured a large head of creamy mostly lasting finely sized white bubbles that left behind a good lacing and a light orange amberish colored body. It had a mild malty aroma and a thin watery mouthfeel with a mild malt hop flavor.

Dark straw color and mild carbonation. The head flattened in a hurry. Weak aroma of caramel malt. Weak flavor, with little bitterness, little sweetness, little sourness, little anything. Is this a light beer? Nothing offensive but not much here.
