12 oz bottle: Very little white head on a lighly hazy light golden body. Initial aroma is lightly grainy and clean. Boring otherwise. Well balanced, lightly grainy & sweet up front, clean again. Finish is grainy & a bit sweet. Aftertaste is clean and grainy. Medium carbonation, smooth, light body. Overall boring, but more exciting than macro swill.

12 oz bottle in a lager glass. Poured cloudy, light wheat, little head, little lace, aroma of wheat and malts, trace hops, some malt flavor, nothing overly exciting about this, but it’s not terrible either.

caramel like sweet start decent but not for a pale lager. If this beer isn’t ice cold - it tastes bitter and sour. Not a good showing by river horse

12 oz bottle pours golden with a fluffy white head that doesn’t stick around. Flavors of sweet corn, and caramel malts. A slight hop presence makes this finish o.k. On the palate this is light and a nice summer beer, but nothing too great that I’ll rememember

Pours gold and cloudy with a very small head. Taste is somewhat malty. No noticable scents to speak of except for a fleeting note of malt.

Pours golden yellow, large white head. Bought this in a 12 pack with some other beers. I found this better than most of the conventional pale lagers, nice body, very drinkable on a warm day.

Light pale yellow, with a very thin white head. A watered down taste, an unusual hint of apple cider, barely noticable. I am disappointed with this weak tasting beer. I bought this in a variety pack and is the first one I have tasted, I hope the others are more satisfying.
