2$ can from vintage estates. Pour is cloudy pale with a big white bubbly head. Nose something like green pine cones. First taste is bitter fresh mild fruit. Green grapefruit rinds and snubber clubber rubber. Somewhat intense and scintillating. Not viscous like many other heavy IPA. In the middle, turning out like many other rude ass IPA; tastefully vulgar, crude, gaudy, tacky, unrefined, inappropriate, indecorous and unseemly. Just how I feel about most terribly on style IPA. Finish is not as punishing as most IPA. There, you have it.

OK, thought I did the big W helles but it turns out that was the 'original 5.1' helles, not this 'new 4.8' helles. Oh well, I wonder how close it tastes to the original. Well, let's find out from this pounder can! BTW, its not actually a 16oz pounder can, its really a half liter - 0.9 oz more than a pounder, heheh. I've always had a special place in my beer tasting heart for the Weihenstephan brews, never had a bad experience with them across all the big W styles. And, the can says they are the world's oldest brewery to boot! This one pour crystal clear glowing pale with a big foaming head that fades quickly to a 1/4 inch berber carpet. Very nice clean lager nose with a hint of metallic sweetness. First taste is quite light for a helles, and it has a decent co2 level. From a glass, co2 level is lacking but big swigs from the can yield a fine cutting effect. The taste is very refined, never cloying as with so many domestic attempts at this style. I'm telling you, this is one of the better helles I've had in a long time; even better than Northern Row Hustler, St. Louis Summer Lager, Noble Creature Alex Fox and even Lowenbrau Original! I really did like that Lowenbrau! Yes, this stuff is tasty fun and easy with some hints of fresh cut hay in there, has some of the finer civilized qualities of Straub's original brew. As a macro pale lager lager lover myslelf, I think most cheap pale macro lager lover will find this quite attractive, its even quite cheap! Less than 3$ for a 500mL single can dude! I bet in a pack, you could get this for less than $2 each.
gave a cheers!

Pour from 3$ can at vintage estate. Cloudy pale, almost milkshake IPA in looks. Big white rocky head. Nose is IPA orange. Was expecting something much more bitter but the first taste is not bad, has a medium hop bitterness and a nice back up of orange and other mild citrus. Pleasantly good carbonation! Yes, as I approach the middle I'm thinking this is better than anticipated, rather laid back on the hoppiness. I could actually drink a few of these without complaint. Not as good as fin city white marlin nor brewkeepers deathwind, but sure is ranking near the the top of my APAs. Good mild bitter hoppy finish with a tad of that grapefruit rind character, yet never gets in yer face. Well balanced for what it is. I'd say its just about on par with bells third coast.

$1 can off the clearance rack at beaver county beverage. Pour is like lemonade. Nose is nothing special, typical pale lager; just like their outlaw light, but with, just maybe, some artificial lemon aroma. I think I'm imagining that lemon. Nice big foaming white head that does not fade, but it does go kraggy. First taste is just like a cheap pale lager but there certainly is some lemon in there. Quite easy drinken, not sure about the tea. Comes across a little unique; something like a shandy but very light on the lemon. In the middle, the lemon nose gets stronger along with the lemon flavor, it keeps building. Now in the end, just maybe i'm picking up some tea. An overall quite refreshing session, not bad. Could easily drink a few of these babies.
