I think this is an updated recipe since they first started being brewed at the old Heilemans plant here in La Crosse. A bit more body and a touch more hops I think. And pretty fresh as it's brewed six blocks south of where I'm at now. Still an adjunct ale lager.

Can at some dive bar while doing horrible shot so paired nicely with this terrible beer. Thin
Watery texture. Tastes of corn, grainy, sour, cardboard. Didn’t care for worse than standard macro

Draught, out of curiosity, at a small bar near Lincoln Park, Chicago. Pale yellow with a very small frothy white head, faint malt aroma, high carbonation, sweetish malt taste with very little grassy hops, thin body, abrupt finish. Unpretentious is the code word.

Refrigerated 16 oz can poured into a glass. Clear golden with medium white head. Aroma is malt, light body, lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is malt.

Subpar, even for an American macro lager. Large swipe of corn sweetness grows flat and ricelike, then gains an undertone of lemon and bread. Finishes with an unnameable bitterness and lingering a aspartame sweet streak. Much better cheap hipster beers are available.

Bottle at ORD. Corny, sweet nose, touch of lemon hops. Pale gold with a fine head. Sweet, grainy, corny, lemon, some grass. Thin, watery. Ass, but could be worse.

This one is a tick above the other old school regional favorite brews bought out and produced by a conglomerate but I could be influenced by the fact I’ve only tried it a few times.

Can, best by January 2nd 2017.

Typical straw yellow colour? Minimal head of foam, short lasting

Corny grainy smell

Same for the taste but hells, I appreciate it for its simplicity and quaffability. --- Beer merged from original tick of Heileman’s Old Style on 04 Nov 2016 at 12:43 - Score: 7. Original review text: Not sold here. The manager got it from a buddy and gave it to me.
