Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pilsener.
The appearance was a light yellow color with a bubbly white head. There wasn’t any lacing.
The smell left a lot to be desired. Lemon, maybe with some sweet corn but wasn’t combined right.
The taste was tart and sweet through previously mentioned flavors.
On the palate, this one sat exceptionally light. Sesionable? Uh...maybe...
Overall, not exactly a beer that I liked and it was probably at the higher end of the lower part of the bad pale lagers.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured bright golden color with a large yellow-white head that fades fairly quickly but produces decent lacing. The aroma was sweet, sour, tangy and corny industrial lager. The flavor is sweet, tangy and lemony. There is a light yeasty and peppery undertone and a long tart finish. Surprisingly tasty.

Decent taste and aroma. A little hop bittterness in there but mostly well mannered and fresh. Enjoyable good crisp feel. Finish is acceptable for the most part. Good session brew and it goes down fairly easy. Overall, enjoyable and refreshing.
