Rainier beer brings together nature’s bounty from the great Northwest. Pure spring waters combine with golden barley and verdant hops to produce a beer rich in taste and texture. Fermented slowly with a pedigree yeast culture under tightly controlled conditions, Rainier comes forth with a satisfying malty flavor over a slightly fruity background, spiced with Chinook, Mt. Hood, and Willamette hop notes.

Draught at Bavarian Bistro & Bar, Leavenworth
Pale blond color. It may be crisp, but it has no notable flavor, and one of the lowest bitterness that I can remember.
I would rather drink water.

These ratings areal over the board. Understand that this is not a craft beer, its a mass market lager, it is what it is. Sweet grain dominates the taste, aroma is corn, decent pour with small airy head, very pale golden body with lazy carbonation. Not much of a finish, sort of evaporates. NW cheap lager, nuff said

Can from Brewforia. Pours light gold with a slight white head. Aroma is very lightly fruity hop. Maybe a hint of pale malt. Med minus body. Flavor is very mild fruity hop with some lightly bready malt. Truly it is not so horrible as most pale lagers.

Hmmm...I’m wondering where in Juneau, I can’t find this beer. Anyways, here goes.
I’ve had this various times in pint glasses and pilseners and this is reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a decent looking yellow color with a strong transparency all about it. Carbonation was seen rising and filling less than a half finger’s worth of head that fizzled into the beer less than thirty seconds.
The smell was grainy and corny.
The taste was really only corny sweet and had a dried corn sweet aftertaste. There was a watery finish.
On the palate, it sat exceptionally light and was mostly sessionable for the most part. The carbonation is there and is decent for the style.
Overall, uh...American Adjunct Lager, did I like it, hmmm...its one of those poundable beers on a hot summer’s day (which we don’t get too much of those in Juneau, but anways). Uh...yeah, I don’t really buy this stuff, but anyways, that’s what I’m sticking to and I’ll leave it at that.

Can, 71cl. It pours a big, white head over a clear, yellow body. Lacings. The aroma is weak, with some fruityness and pale malts. Pears and yellow apples mostly. There’s a little bitterness in the flavor, else it’s the same fruits and pale malts found in the nose. Medium bodied, and a pleasant carbonation level. Some bitterness in the end. A drinkable one, but there’s nothing interesting going on here, nothing at all. 131004

On tap at the Mountain Brewers Festival 2013. Pours a clear copper color with a large white head. A basic lager nose with some light earthiness and honey. The flavor is clean for the most part, light earthy grains, no hops detected. Drinkable.

16oz can from Total Wine in Spokane
Pours clear straw yellow with a small white head, some lacing. Aroma is sweet malts, corn and honey. Taste is sweet malts, grainy with a mild bitter citrus in the finish. First time I’ve had this in years (since it was brewed in WA), I remember it being much better than this.

12 oz can. Initial aroma is of skunk and corn gone bad. These bad smells go away once it settles for a bit, leaving an unremarkable macro aroma. Surprisingly it pours a thick head which lasts longer than any other macro I’ve reviewed so far. [sidenote] Speaking of which, it wasn’t too long ago this wasn’t a macro! It was brewed in the Pacific Northwest, not by fucking Miller. Must everything they touch turn to shit??
