Very bland lager that still beats the pants off the macros. Nothing special here, some corn and toasty flavors, a lightly grassy hint of hops at the finish. Decent. Enjoyed mine at the Mars Cheese Castle with a hot ham & cheese!

This is a beer thats been around for over 150 years and can kick the shit out of miller and bud. It’s a step up from the macro lagers, with excellent flavor and drinkability. I drink this beer every time i go to second street pub in stevens point.

In the land of swills, this is King. I still don’t like it, but a few here and there are OK. Tastes and smells like a mix of cooked corn and cut alfalfa blasted with too much carbonation.

Grassy smell, more than you taste. Goes down very smooth with a bitter aftertaste.

Pours very pale. Nose grassy, a few adjuncts there. Flavor is OK upfront, some malts, hops largely nonexistent. Bit off and bitter at end.

Light yellow body with a white head. The aroma is some white bread with a little bit of carrots and potatoes. Very much a sweet vegetable smell. The taste is potato skins with some fresh green beans. There is also some light grass. However, this is not offensive.

Golden color with good head. A sweet taste that leaves quickly. There is nothing special about this beer by the same name

This wasn't too bad for an american lager. Pours a pale gold color, flat mouthfeel, although looks very bubbly. Flavor is quite a bit better than most. I would have it again.
