ditmier (222), Boise, Idaho, USA Jun 21, 2008 2008 Bottle - Pours light brown, slight white head, aroma is bitter and slightly skunked like most macro brews, this should be treated as such, it is bitter and refreshing and consistently good...while it is large batch, it’s still enjoyably drinkable, just stay away from their cherry/stout/shit/etc other stuff...
v64 (60), Austin, Texas, USA Oct 7, 2008 Definitely a favorite of mine out of the typical beers you can get just about anywhere. Small head, nice floral aroma balanced with a touch of malt, light amber in appearance. Well balanced hop flavor, but a touch too watery, not as full bodied as it should be. I wouldn’t turn one down though, it’s a solid beer in my book. joekinty (217), rockledge, Florida, USA Oct 6, 2008 In my opinion which doesnt count for sh** I would have to say this is the best American lager on the market I can say nothing negative about it is just great shawn14505 (8), USA does not count Oct 3, 2008 If you ever go out to a chain resturant for dinner (think Applebees, Olive Garden, Chilis) then this is probably the best beer you will find on tap. This old reliable has saved me countelss times when the only other choices were coors light, bud light, etc. This is a decent beer, completely respectable in everyway, yet not god enough to compete with the craft brews such as Stone, Southern Tier, etc. Ole_R (1279), Oslo, Norway Oct 3, 2008 355 ml bottle, 4.8% abv. A firm, mostly lasting yellowish-white head. Brilliant, deep golden colored body. Beautiful malt aroma; suitable sweet, lightly toasted with pepper and caramel notes. Also a whiff of dark dried fruits and grassy hops. Taste has a nice sourish malt profile with a distinct bitterness. Notes of herbs and unripe fruits. Medium body. Dry malty, light bitter ending. Reliable. tilldeath (26), Arvada, Colorado, USA Oct 2, 2008 not bad a good easy to find semi popular beer, aroma of mild malts and grains, really not a ton of hops compared to some of the other hop giants out there, contrary to their commercials. All and all if I’m having a cheap steak not a bad beer to go with it.
