This is not good. It’s very grainy. Bland. Minimal hops. Minimal flavor. It’s not completely repulsive, but why bother?

Heheh, got this from trader joes in cary. 80 cents! Clear pale, very little if any head. Some initial co2 on the uptake, could use more. On the nose there is a little bit of skunk grass, just a little. Decent unique lager taste, not sure if I like it or not but it does qualify as a cheap pale lager, fer sher my ratebeerin friends. YEs, for the price, its a decent lawn mower beer. I wish I had a trader joes near my hometown.

12 oz. clear bottle from Trader Joe's. Pours a crystal clear gold color with an off white head and great retention. Good lacing. Virtually no aroma. Pretty standard pale malt flavor. Slightly sweet. Clean, crisp, and smooth. Not grainy. Nothing notable, but better than the majority of macro lagers. And the low price is a bonus.

Bottle from Trader Joe's Bedford. Lightly hazy piss yellow in color with a bubbly white head that shows moderate retention. Green apple and skunk with hints of malt and hops. Brings me back to canoe trips on the Merrimack with Jason, just add lime.

As Trader Jose Premium Beer. I have to assume it’s the same as the Premium Lager. $1.09. Pours clear golden with a large white head. Aroma is corn, cheap lager. Wow, surprisingly, the flavor is not half-bad. Somewhat sweet malts and that’s about it. Very straightforward and surprisingly drinkable.

Weak corn nose. Clear golden, thin head with no retention. Very corny and artificial. No hops, but not flavorless. Macro knock-off.
