Oil can purchased at the Mobil up the road. Dark golden bordering on amber with a dense rocky white head that shows moderate retention. Sweet bready biscuity flavor and aroma with a hint of earthy hops. Light toffee and mineral water flavor round this out. Pretty plain not horiibly complex but straightforward and somewhat crushable.

25.4 oz bomb of a can. Typical grainy, corny aroma. Really light grassy flavor, but surprisingly drinkable. I could session on thus stuff. According to the can, I got some tabby topper to play. I’m sure I’ll drink this again someday. Enjoyed the experience.

Can. Pours clear amber colored with small creamy light beige head, doughy aroma, flat watery taste despite the high carbonation, little bit of malty taste, abrupt finish. If there is a light ale, this must be it!

Big can in a convenient store on my trip to Maine. Pours a clean amber colour with a foamy warm cap, decent stay and dirty lacing. Corn taste with amber beer adjunct and a light bitter finish. The smell is not very good, with a typical big macro adjunct aroma. Not bad tasting, but still a big macro that I would not have again.

25.4 oz. can, given by Mason. Pours a light brown, with a big, foamy, beige head. Big bready aroma, with some earth, caramel, and rye. Very sweet and malty, with just a hint of hop bitterness. Light to medium body, sticky, and a little thin. Overall, this is a reasonably tasty beer; similar to a vienna lager, or a light brown ale.

Rubbery garbage disposal smell. Clear dark amber, thick lacy head. Stale malt flavor, vanilla, tinny. Grassy cherries finish. Not great.

Last second nab at market. This was almost my 2k that would have been unremarkable. Pours clear amber with frothy head. Nose is grainy and metallic. Tastes caramel, metal, light florals, grainy, and some hop bitterring. Slight sticky palate come in nice big can.

Copper Color, Huge Foamy Had, Nice Lacing. Grainy Aroma. Sweet Malts, Caramel, Light Hop Finish. A little More depth than regular Foster’s, easier to Drink and Enjoy, thirst quencher. Nothing Too good nor too bad. OK for what it is...I never had it in a green can, so I guess nothing too bad is going to happen if someone is going to try it for themselves, either....
