I got a 24pck of this beer from the Festival supermarket near UW LaCrosee in LaCrosse, Wisconsin. It poured a clear amber with thin white head that dissipated quickly and left zero lace. The scent had grain notes. The taste was sweeter leaning and easy to drink....with subtle grain backdrop. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is an ok beer.

I am slowly getting around to reviewing & rating beers for The CANQuest (tm) that caused my local, in-person some CANsternation since I was not getting to them quickly enough. Fair dinkum, but fear no longer, @tone77 , there is movement!
From the CAN: "Made with natural ingredients. Serve cold."
Made with natural ingredients?!? When has a beer, other than a Minhas product, been made with unnatural ingredients?!? This does NOT bode well!
I Crack!ed open the vent & beCAN a slow, gentle Glug since I was really unsure of just what I was dealing with. It foamed nicely to form just over a finger of dense, foamy, rocky, tawny head with good retention. Color was Deep-Amber/Light-Copper to Copper (SRM = > 13, < 17) with NE-quality clarity. Nose smelled really sugary-sweet. 8=p Mouthfeel was thin-to-medium, not watery, but not far beyond it, either. The taste had a caramel & raspberry-cherry flavor, almost like cough syrup, but rather pleasant. As @tone77mentioned, for those of us in S-Central PA, this is NOT going to supplant Yuengling Lager, but neither was it too, too bad. Finish remained awfully sweet, though, which for me was a non-starter. It was a pleasant diversion, but it was also a one & done. YMMV.

Pours to a generous buff head that falls to next to nothing. Dark amber color. Sweet grainy aroma with a hint of toasted bread. Flavor is sweet and slightly nutty and toasty. Feels a bit greasy, Somewhere between a Shiner Bock and Yeungling. Not bad for the price.

I'm snowbirding and currently in OK. A new variety of Lost Lake? Hell yeah! Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a copper/amber color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is mild, some toasted malts. Taste is light, malts, some grains, easy drinking. Feels medium/light bodied in the mouth and overall not bad at this price point, but as a native of PA, this beer won't help my craving for some Yuengling.
