16 ounce can into lager glass, best before 5/28/2018. Pours crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of cracker, corn, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of honey, nuttiness, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. A touch of fruity aromas, but not overwhelming. Nice and pleasant aromas with pale malt/corn and light earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of cracker, corn, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of honey, nuttiness, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light herbal, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, corn, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light honey/nuttiness, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness of pale malt/corn and light earthy hop flavors; with great malt/bitterness balance; and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with minimal fruity notes present. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is a very good pale adjunct lager! All around nice robustness of pale malt/corn and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish. Very flavorful and never watery for the ABV. Very clean and nicely rich malts/grains and solid earthy hop presence for the style. Not overdone on adjuncts, plenty of barley presence. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. One of the absolute best AAL I've ever had for sure.

From old tasting notes. Labeled as "Strohs Signature". Clear golden color with small bubble carbonation. Small white head. Crisp, sweet malt aroma has a slight hop background. Decent balance. Dry hop finish. Highly carbonated.

Terrible stuff. But not more terrible than wierque. Drank this to keep myself awake during a boring dive safety video in Utila, Honduras. The local Honduran lager is better than this by a long shot, and that’s not saying a lot. Can.

12oz can poured into a shaker. Pours a clear gold with minimal head. Aroma is sweet with corn and grains. Taste is similar. Some wet cardboard in the finish. Light bodied with a thin, watery texture. Fizzy carbonation and not much of a finish. Meh, not the worst I’ve had.

How is it possible for one brewer to make so many bad beer-like beverages? Who drinks this stuff anyway?

What my dad and grandpa grew up on.
Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pilsener glass.
The appearance was a light yellow color with a quarter finger of white foamy head that died within seconds. Carbonation was rising at a pace that just seemed like it wanted to scream right on out of the glass.
The smell, well, that left a lot to be desired. Sweetened cereal?
The taste was the same as the smell.
On the palate, this sat extremely light and came across extremely smooth and simple.
Overall, its hard to bust on a beer that my relatives drank back in the day but for me, I can’t really see myself having this again. I know better pale lagers out there if I want one.

GABF 2013. Pours a clear yellow appearance with a small white head. Corny, vanilla, a touch spicy hoppy, grassy aroma. Not all the offensive though a bit watery, corn, lightly toasted cracker flavor. I had to push through all the fuckwads begging for PBR @ GABF to get this rate and probably ended up looking like a fuckwad myself sipping and smelling this masterpiece.

Can. Faint sweet malt aroma. Yellow with small white head. Watered down malt flavor... almost no flavor. Light watery body, average carbonation.
