Poured from the tap. Clear gold with white head. Corn and grassy hops. Actually decent.

Soft aroma of nothing, soft white foam and yellow body with some cloud. Flavour is soft floral notes. Finish is both crisp and smooth. Not bad drinking, interesting at least.

At the source: pours pale gold with a white head. Aroma is light malts and corn. Taste is super smooth and easy. A paragon of the style. Low hops. Not too sweet. Swillable.

I had No Brainer multiple times in the last couple of years, on tap and cans, and it has been quite consistently good; it's a nice crispy option.

Hazy pale blond color, small head. Upfront the corn is not bad, it's crisp, but it suffers later, some lack of body and maltiness; it's a bit grassy too, and there is some rubber aroma.
Not a beer I would go for, but not totally bad.

Straw colour with no head. Light, malt/accented with some corn/grain notes. Balanced bitterness and other than the grains it’s pretty clean. I rated it 3.2 originally but the spring 2020 batch gets a bit of a bump because i really do like the malt character better.

Draft - Some pale malt. Fizzy clear yellow. Typical lager with a bit of skunky bitterness. Meh. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On tap at Brassneck Brewery, pours a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out corn notes above anything, with a very subtle intensity. Flavour brings out crisp grassy hops, corn, and crisp bready malts. Surprisingly flavourful for a corn lager and not at all bland or lifeless. Solid stuff.
