Poured from the can into a tall Libbey style pilsner glass.

Quite a neat looking lager. Seems straw colored but gets a bit darker with a real bright lemon and hued green color. Looks slightly hazy, but has this real neat glow. Big rich froth filling bleach white head at three fingers, but with a little staying power, and settling to a good finger height puck and crown. Real nice looking beer. Some nice linear reams of carbonation make it look even better.

Aroma has a light touch of malts, faint hint of adjunct sweetness, slightly flour but also kind of papery like in quality. Clean, a hint of baked light bread just enough to make it more inviting. Solid.

Palate seems to provide no surprises. Light touching malt body, with a hint of popcorn like flavor. Hits slightly a bit wet in the palate but also stays away from sticky and slickly overly sweet flavors as well luckily. Minimal to no hop presence, but not real complaining for this style.

This is about as good as a mass market lager can be, hits the right spots and nothing fancy.

From the bottom of the can: "LAGER THAN LIFE ENJOY BY 8/1/19"

Appearance: The body is a pale straw color with a very light bit of haze. The head starts short and white then recedes leaving only a ring.

Aroma: There is a light aroma of corn and a very faint scent of sweet smelling grain. The dominant aroma is the corn.

Taste: There is a light bit of lemon that comes through at first. Then there is a touch of sweet corn and a hint of cereal grain in the background.

Mouthfeel: Carbonation is low, the body is light, and it finishes wet with a bit of slickness.

Overall: The beer has a decent taste but it doesn't feel very well made. It has poor clarity and it doesn't have the halmark crisp finish that competitors have. It's not a bad beer by any means but it will leave you wanting something else. I probably wouldn't pick it up again and I probably wouldn't recommend it but I would still drink it at a gathering.

Poured from 12 oz can into pint glass. A thin white head drops rapidly, almost no lacing. Color is slightly hazy pale straw. Moderate streaming carbonation. Mild aroma of lightly toasted malt, just a hint of hops. Mouthfeel is light with a fairly dry finish. Flavor of cracker, biscuit, some herbal and mild citrus hops. Overall: good, but I would just as soon drink an inexpensive macro.

Pours clear, pale gold. Smells slightly corny and tastes the same, too. A touch sweet but refreshing and light, it is a great beer for hanging outside and crushing a few. No frills, just easy drinking.

Poured into a Budweiser pilsner glass. Poured the pale color you'd expect from an aal.
A very smooth enjoyable taste and mouthfeel. Aftertaste is also smooth.
This would be a great choice for an easy drinking smooth beer on a hot summer day.
Ranks a For Sure on the would I like to sit down with a 12 pack of this brew scale

A very light crisp lager great for hot weather and thirst quenching. Drink very cold and you’ll be happy. Not world class but above average lawn mower beer. And with low alcohol you can have few or more.
