Pours light golden with a huge white head. Aroma of dry malt. Taste is quite unpleasant, has a lot of iron notes. Palate has some of the same, odd notes. Not goof at all.

From old tasting notes. Pale straw gold color. Creamy white head. Faint sweet, grainy malt aroma. Effervescent light malt flavor with high carbonation. Sour, light hop finish. No aftertaste. Very little body or character.

Pours a clear pale yellow color with a thin white head that burns away quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing. Aroma of corn, malt and slight hops. Light-bodied with a mildly vegetal character and notes of pale malts and grassy hops. The finish is sweet with a malt and corn aftertaste. Below average overall.

Can from Kelly. Drunk from the can, so I can’t speak to the appearance. The nose is corn, caramel, and maybe some earthy hops. Sweet, with a minimum bitterness. Light body, watery, and a little malty. Overall, this is one of the better light beers, but hardly "good".

Pours deep caramel into a shaker. White head disappears to nothing. Caramel and corn syrup aromas. Flat with sweet caramel and toasted nuts.

The only thing that’s good about this is that it looks like it’s going to be a pale ale. It’s not. Tap at DC Beer festival.

In the can. Via trade. Pours a clear, dark yellow appearance with a fluffy white head. Nice appearance. Metal, lemon juice, and candy in the nose. Twangy, a touch tart, sweet corn, candy flavor. Carbonation is pretty high. Metallic notes are kind of heavy. Decent American Light Lager but I’d take a Miller Lite over this.
