Nice sweet tase with a crisp finish. My buddy brought some of this back from Wisconsin. I previously tried the honey lager and liked it and this one hit the spot.

Pours medium gold with 1-finger white head. Aroma of slight grainy malt, slight hops and caro syrup. The taste is pale malty, slightly citric with some subdued hops and honey. Fairly watery, but with some crispness.

Nice, semi-sweet aroma, but I wish it was more pronounced. Neither the malt or hops dominate the flavor, so I guess one would say it’s balanced. Quick, clean finish. Smooth, with carbonation fitting the style.

pours light gold with fizzy white head. Aroma is sweet malts, corn, and some saazy hops. Flavor is actually quite good for a typical american pale lager. Smooth, not overly watery, bit hoppy finish. Overall, went well with the jalepeno hotdog i was eating.

Pours light golden with a fully receding white head. Aroma of husky grain and bready lager yeast. Taste is lightly sweet and bready, with a clean fermentation, and adjuncts, if present, are below my detection. Mouthfeel is light/medium bodied with lively carbonation.

agree with every body that it is better than the average american macro, price is not bad also. pours a medium yellow, descent size head, and spotty lacing and a light body. aroma is standard macro with a little kick, same with the flavor.

Bottle from sampler pack. Pretty bland. Not much different than the typical big name American beer. Nothing "special" about this beer.

Looks, pours, and smells like an American Macro. Taste a little better. I saw it for $11 a case, plus a $2 rebate for a total of $9 even. Not a bad price for a just slightly above average brew.
