Giant can from food lion, I’m sure. Murky chocolate ham tasting: me casa. Mostly clear gold with a soft white head that quickly dissipates. Inoffensive aroma of corn, water that’s sat in cooper pipes for decades, grasses. Could have been much worse. But good god it should be better. Flavor is envelope glue, corn, grasses, rubbing alcohol.

Can: Clear yellow-gold with a soapy white head. Grain, lemon, corn scent. "Taste" was tangy-spoiled fruit, Likka malt, aluminum, and a harsh, burning grain-alcohol-ness. My sample was gifted to me by Shrubber85....that scamp..... It was in a clear, repurposed ginger ale bottle, filled all the way to the top and capped. I drank about 3 oz of it...then an additional ounce to truly appreciate the magnitude of it’s horribleicity.....after a moment of eye twitches and minor, yet alarming anal leakage, I walked out to the street, poured a modicum of it out for my dead homies, smashed the bottle, brandished the jagged neck menacingly, and shouted "GANG WAAAAR!!!!!!!".......sadly, no one was around.....(crickets)......so I cleaned up my mess like a good citizen, added the shards to the recycle bin and went back inside to think about my life.......... Well played, Roger........well played.

Can (24 ounce - dammit, cheated out of 16 ounces). Sour corn/barley malt and grass aroma. Golden yellow with large but short lasting head. Mildly sweet lemon, corn/barley malt flavor followed by...oh my God, what is that? Bile?!? An intense bitter rotten lemon peel flavor to finish. I think this crap is giving me an instant hangover. Oh, City Brewery - I hate you so much. Patrickctenchi is gonna have to work hard to pay me back for this beauty.

24 oz. can. Pours pale gold with lots of bubbles and a big, fluffy, cream colored head. The aroma is corn syrup, wet hay, a bit of tin and stone, with some caramel and grain alcohol. Sweet, with a surprisingly well balanced bitterness. Medium body, sticky, and a little astringent. This isn’t as awful as I expected.

24oz can of love pours with a crystal clear pale gold body that supports a decent nearly bright white head that faded to loose assortment of bubbles in about a minute. The aroma offers up sweet smelling fruity esters like pears and apples that are drizzled with white sugar. Behind the fruitiness, this beer is just above freezing right now, are mild chemical booze notes and a sliver of corn flakes. The taste starts watery and neutral and then the sweet light skinned fruity onslaught starts with honey covered pears and apples. To midway it picks up a non sweet note that must just be straight up booze or maybe … I don’t know. It’s still friggin cold which is likely helping the flavor tremendously. Drink cold to slushy for that lack of flavor and 100% boost you’re looking for. I did.

Saved for rating 2600. Pours a clear pale yellow,with no head. Pretty standard cheap likka aroma. Corn, grains, green apple and cotton candy. Taste follows suit, super boozy in the finish. Maybe a little grape drink in there.
