Appearance - 2 | Aroma - 3 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 3.5

Location: 12 oz bottle from Colonial Wine and Spirits, 12/5/11, This one is such a tick, it is almost embarrassing, Prince definitely would NOT say that this is how you party like it's rating #1999. I'd like to apologize for that joke, but I couldn't help myself...

Aroma: At first it smells a bit like a skunk, but then it turns just a touch of grassy. Honestly, that grassy hop aroma saves this one, because originally I hated it. It still isn't good, but atleast it isn't all skunk and grain.
Appearance: Pours a completely clear piss yellow color that doesn't look appetizing, good lacing at least.
Flavor: The flavor is somehow a mix of grains, corn, vegetation, and metallic notes, not a good combo
Palate: The body is rather light and crisp, it is really watery, and it has a fairly unpleasant mouthfeel to it
Overall Impression: Man, this one leaves one of the worst first impressions of all time. I've never cracked a beer before and looked around to see what died! Terrible! Somehow though, I decided to give it another minute, and the aroma improved enough to make the beer palatable. I would definitely not recommend this one.

Refrigerated bottle poured into glass. Pours a pale yellow with almost no head, a little lacing, and very little carbonation. The aroma is light skunk and has a thin body. Taste is corn, metallic and straw. I prefer miller high life if you are going this cheap.

Something of light malt aroma, backed by a bit of hop. However, there is something a tad earthy lurking. Amber tinged golden color with a white head that disappeared quickly. Thin bodied, with lightly fizzy carbonation. There is a cooked aspect to go with the malt and hop. Not much bitter in the finish, and something like a touch of veg. Not to my taste.

Pour is a very pale yellow with a big white head. Aroma is slightly malt and no skunk. At least this first one out of the 6 isn’t. Flavor is rather bland and fizzy but there is some grassyness. Nothing exciting or great but drinkable on a warm summer night. Now I will never have to go back to aldi’s ever again.
