Pours a clear clear body with no head. Aroma is slightly offensive, the taste is not great at all. This is one of the poorer pale lagers Ive had.

Blah. I’ll take a Coors Light over this if I had to choose. Aroma was weak. Could pick up some light malt and metal. Pour was a light gold with no bubbles or head. Taste was like lightly carbonated water with metal and corn in the aftertaste. Bland and bad.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a pale straw color with a small white head that faded quickly. The aroma was faintly dry. The flavor was dryish, grainy, lightly tangy and corny. The finish was very short. Inoffensive but nothing substantive to it.

Clear watery yellow in color, small white head. Nose of straw, grapes and pears. The pear flavor is up front, sort of boozy flavor, hot, sort of like sake. Very watery on the palate. I’ve had worse, but my expectations weren’t very high.
