Narragansett Lager is old reliable. It was the first beer brewed by “The Original Six” back in 1890, and the best selling beer in New England from the 1930’s to the 1970’s. It has crossed paths with Dr. Seuss, it was famously crushed by Captain Quint in Jaws, and it was the first alcoholic beverage to partner with a professional sports team – the Boston Red Sox from 1944-1975. Drinking a Lager is drinking to New England history. Hi Neighbor! Have a ‘Gansett!

I'd rather get eaten by a shark, than drink this again.

Looks like the first piss in the morning. Tastes like apples and corn. Served this at my wedding at my father’s request.

12 ounce bottle. Honey gold color. Large creamy white head. Grainy metallic nose. Upfront flavor mirrors the aroma with a touch of floral hops. This is the atypical independent American lager, much like Rolling Rock used to be. Light bodied and refreshing. Good for when your planning to throw back several on a warm afternoon or evening. Nothing fancy, just a decent value priced light lager.

Pale yellow. I finger head. Bubbly. Draft. Smells like every other pale lager. Lemon, a lot of carbonation. Malty, brown sugar.

Tap at Mission Dolores, Brooklyn. Normally I would not choose this kind of lager in a good beer bar but I noticed that this is a chance to get my first beer from Rhode Island.. at least kind of. Golden color, small white head. Grainy nose. Light to medium-bodied. Flavor is grainy with some sweetcorn and light citrus hoppyness and hints of fruityness. Decent for 16oz/4 usd.

Can (Tallboy - Patrickctenchi gets it right). Milky corn/barley malt aroma. Golden yellow with giant head. Mildly sweet creamy corn and barley malt flavor. Medium body. Pleasant.

Can from my sister’s trip to the USA deep gold with a soapy foamy head. Sweet sugary aroma the taste matches sweet malts, sugary with a crisp bitter green herbal finish. OK.

Reviewed from notes. Can’t believe I’ve never reviewed this - of all the times when I lived on the East Coast and would pound this on the New England beaches. Well, anyways, ok, here goes.
The appearance is a bright yellow close to a golden amber with a thin less than a half fingered soapy head that fell fast.
The aroma has a lot of corn and coming through in a super sweetness
The taste is lightly sweet through the corn with a thin sweet corn aftertaste and watery finish.
The palate is watery and comes across more than sessionable, whoah, yeah this stuff is just super sessionable. Carbonation is fairly subdued as there’s nothing really inadequate on the mouth or tongue.
Overall, well, its an American Adjunct Lager, what can one say or do. I say Beach beer/BBQ beer if anything. I’d take this over any wine any day.

Can @ Smoke & Barrel, Washington, D.C. Pours clear straw with airy white head. Clear aroma of yeast with notes of hops and a touch of grain. Mild, slightly bitter flavour with pronounced estery notes. Mildly bitter and rather skunky finish. Not a bad Pale Lager but, honestly, who likes this style?
