Very average typical lager, but at a decent price. Flavor has a little more going on than your usual macro swill. Get it ice cold.

Nice bright yellow, with a big white head, coonstant carbonation. fruity sweet aroma. Sweet corn flavor on a slightly viscous palate. Some tartness in the finish.

(bottle) Poured a lighter-than-yellow body with a fizzy white head that went away quickly. A light sourdough aroma threw me off. Light bodied with a metallic aftertaste that wouldn’t go away. Forgettable. One bottle gave me a headache.

Rather plain, but delightful alternative to Miller. Light in color. Almost dusty tasting. Good for the 2 for 1 nights. The brewery smells nice in the morning when you drive by.

This bottled brew poured a medium sized head of white colored frothy fine to medium sized mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a poor lacing and a transparent carbonated weak yellow orange body. The aroma was astringent with grassy mild hop and malty notes. THC mouth feel was tingly and thin on flavor with a lingering mild malt hop aftertaste. The flavor was astringent with grassy malty hoppy notes that was somewhat off the mark.

Bottle. Small white head that mostly diminished, sparse lacing, fine-small sized bubbles, carbonated, transparent, and a pale yellow hue. Malty and lightly hoppy aroma. The flavor was sweet, malty, bland, and thin. Tingly and thin mouthfeel. Light body. Nothing special.

bottle-purchased at Woodmans in Rockford, IL. pours a pale yellow hue with a small white head. grassy aroma with a subtle noble hop aroma. Pretty much smells like a pilsener. flavors of grainy malts, stale hops with a thin body. THis is a BMC with a little more flavor and body. Not to bad for a mass produced lager from WI. an easy drinking session lager.
