In my opinion, the worst tasting member of the Beast family. But as a collegian it presented a conundrum due to it’s markedly higher alcohol content vis a vis its friends, Beast and Beast Light. Only for nights when you wanted to get really messed, needed to black out, and were unafraid of pissing your bed.

(sample, can) Clear golden. Huge white head. Light sweet, light grainy, corn. Light-medium body. Quite neutral.

It’s fine for what it is. It’s just not good.

Pours golden with a thick white head and heavy carbonation. Aroma of grassy and acerbic rice malt. Taste has sweet molasses notes. Palate has malt nose. Eh.

24 oz. can pour into a tumbler (perhaps slightly better than the swig straight from the can) in memory of Zet. Appearance is clear, pale yellow with tons of sparkle, finger-plus width foamy white head with fair retention and decent soapy lacing. Aroma is biscuit, pilsner malt, cardboard, vague fruit. Taste is as aroma. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with slightly sticky texture, lively carbonation (lightly stinging) and finish as taste with mildly bitter ending. Overall, above average appearance but everything else is one dimensional and not very interesting. But, not offensive. Dear Zet, we will miss you and your lovable, quirky habits, tastes and nature.

24 ounce can into lager glass, best before 9/17/2018. Pours crystal clear golden amber color with a 1 finger fairly dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of cracker, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of honey, nuttiness, corn, and mild herbal/grassy earthiness. Bit of fruity aromas, but not too overwhelming. Okay aromas with pale malt/corn and mild earthy hop notes; with decent strength. Taste of cracker, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of honey, nuttiness, corn, and mild herbal/grassy earthiness. Very mild herbal, grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light honey/nutty.corn, and mild herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice robustness of pale malt/corn and mild earthy hop flavors; with a solid malt/bitterness balance; and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with minimal fruity notes present. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium-high carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and slightly sticky mouthfeel that is nice. Slightly increasing lingering warmth of 5.9% after the finish. Overall this is pretty good iced pale adjunct lager. All around good robustness of pale malt/corn and mild earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish. Very clean and nicely rich barley/grain flavors, with mild earthy hop balance. Not overdone on the corn adjuncts at all; which was not the case with the other MB versions. A nicely enjoyable offering. Very tasty and well made considering the style.

Can purchased in downtown Colon, Panama. Yes, I had to go all the way to Panama to find a 12 oz single. Pours a clear gold color with a white head and good retention. Lots of carbonation. Spots of lacing. Light corn nose. Very little flavor overall. Tastes like a corn lager with a slight booze finish. Crisp mouthfeel. Very malt liquor like. Better than a bitter IPA.

This "best" poured a light yellow colour with almost no head unless shaken. Smells of a metallic corn aroma mostly dominate. First swig was very thin and watery. Flavours of corn and water.... Finish tasted like the air in a strip joint. Not so much....

Can, 24oz. A clear, golden beer topped by a dense, finger-thick off-white head. A malty, sweetish and fruity beer with a touch of corn. Canned pears too. It’s soft and semi-dry on the palate, yet it feels quite sweetish, at least in the flavor. Pale malts, corn, canned pears and perhaps, just perhaps a touch of bitterness. Medium body. Long, corn and pear finish. Not horrific, far, far from good. Should probably be served at freezing temp. 150610
