12oz bottle. Poured a light and slightly hazy straw color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas were almost no-existent; grains. Tastes of grains with some malty sweetness. Thin and watery.

Bottle. Pale clear yellow. Tastes and smells as close to water as I think I’ve ever found in a beer. A few drops of Bud were added to a bottle of carbonated water... I drank this while watching beerfest... ugh.

Faint smells of corn syrup and mercury emanate from this absurdly pale yellow brew that sports a tiny bubbled film in lieu of a head. The taste is sweet and metallic, the finish being a zinc-like flavor left on the tongue. On the plus side, no boils erupted on my skin.

Found some old note and actually still have a full can of this, but I'm quite sure this in not made any more. From the records no real loss. Straw color with a smallish white fizzy head. Light malt and grain aroma. Light grian flavors and watery feel. Just jumping on the light bandwagon.

Pours pale gold, with some aroma and taste notes of grainy pale malt and citrus. Fairly crisp, but not terribly interesting.

This is a recent arrival at John’s in Iowa City. Apparently, they are making it again. The body is pale gold with a small white head. The aroma has bologna and some notes of potatoes. The taste has a meaty note of summer sauage with some earthy squash. I dont’ mind Point’s regular lager, but this is too strange for me.

Picked up single 12-oz bottle from Pick & Save in Marshfield, WI. Pours a very light pale golden yellow brew with a thin white head that dissolves too quickly. Serve at 35 degree and you won’t have not head. Aroma of multi-grain (mostly corn) malt with some citrus and flowery hops. Taste is fairly crisp, clean cut, very carbonated and not much hops bitterness. Nothing spectacular but a decent lawn mower beer.

12 oz bottle. Poured a clear pale golden color. Head was white and dissipated quickly to a thin film. Aroma was of corn, whole milk, and a whiff of cereal grain. Watery and dry on the tongue. There was a distinct cardboardy flavor up front that gave way to a little honey and cereal grain. Blah.
