Another beer that lacks ’good’. Completely forgetable. I drank this while I was drunk and the taste still managed to offend me a little bit. Useless. But hey, it is pretty cheap.

Can: Poured a lightly carbonated golden yellow color lager with a small foamy head with minimal retention. Aroma of corn adjunct is way too powerful and gross. Taste is also dominated by the adjunct with too much sugar. Another bland offering from this awful brewery.

Ack, what do you expect? I sometimes wonder if anyone becides college people can even drink this stuff, then I wonder why they can’t even have better sense then to drink this stuff. I’d take a pass over this stuff unless I was wasted already.

Can: Poured a light yellow color lager with a foamy head with better then average retention. Aroma of adjunct is quite powerful and dominated the aroma. Taste is also heavy on the adjunct with some corn and some light alcohol notes. Body is creamier then most macros. Overall, this is another bland macros with maybe a bit more of a creamy body and better head retention.

Golden amber with white bubbly foamy head. Smell was a grassy sweet smell. Suprising to me this actually had some flavor for a light beer, it tasted grainy and corny.

2006 cans consumed on 7/14 and 7/15/06.
Pale-maize-golden body is, of course, highly clear, but bubbles do not rise intensely here. White head is small, wispy and fades to partial cover and then nothing.
The nose has a light dose of corn sugar that initially sweetens things, while a hint of vanilla, almost enjoyable (though a flaw) sits softly in between this and the very light, slightly grainy (old barley, bits of honey) malt structure. And what’s that?? It’s hops! Like the barest tickle of saaz hops, almost as if smelling a grass stain on your pants. But it is undoubtedly there and actually quite pleasant for what it is. Aside from the minimal beer notes (and the lager yeast bi-products), a spring water lightness bubbles about in the nose.
Taking a few sips, I keep waiting and waiting for the heavy, syrupy or harsh corn syrup flavors to hit, but they don’t. Certainly not the most clean of pale lagers, but for a macro product it’s startlingly clean. Light barley grains, medium-high attenuation for the style and just a drizzle of light honey and corn syrup on the finish. Hops are not bitter, nor is the yeast particularly crisp and the water is quite soft. All of this leads to an easy drinking, spring water-concoction with gentle, very bare, grassy hops that are difficult to find, but there none-the-less. No alcohol really, and yet again, I don’t find much DMS, just a hint on the finish (I seem to have a difficult time detecting DMS). Aside from the corn syrup notes throughout, it’s really rather neutral and actually rather drinkable. Carbonation is low for the style, much lower than most macro products. Mouthfeel is pretty flimsy, but some malt did make it’s way through here, albeit in small quantities.

(Can 35,5 cl) Pours a pale pilsener golden with a neat and creamy head with good retention. Lightly sourish aroma of brewing cereals. Rather light body, sweetish malt and sourish brewing cereal - rice I suspect? Absolutely no bitterness. Pure swill. 220306

Urine yellow beer with a light white head. Looks like it would pass straight through your kidneys unprocessed. Very little flavor with a slight yeasty aroma that leaves a small but funny aftertaste. remind me I won’t need to rate it a second time.
