I bought a bottle off the single shelf at a grocery store outside of Milwaukee. It poured a clear amber with thin white head that is leaving a spotty lace. The scent had slight bitter hop zeal. the taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink. The mouthfeel is lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it's a decent beer.

This beer pours a nice deep amber color with an off white head. There is a little lacing left on the glass. This is slightly above average for the style.

Surprisingly a very good amber lager that actually came from a can:)lol It was smooth & malty, slightly sweet with very little to no hops. Would definitely recommend for Lager Lovers like me;)

I've noticed Sprecher makes better looking beers than any other aspect of the scores. This one is no different, vibrant amber color here with a 1.25" head formation. Aroma kicks that Vienna sweetness in the right range.

High carbonation and a minor hop kick, but its the sweet malt mouthfeel that comes in first. The body stays light, despite giving a caramel sweetness that usually comes with heft and stickiness. Great format, great price. They do a good job on this one, nice around this time of year.

A nice amber. Well-balanced, maltier as it warmed. A am enjoying lagers more with mild-ish lunch food.

Pours a deep orange with a on-finger, off-white head.
A nice sweet malt smell.
A very nice Carmel malted breadiness and lightly hopped.
A thinner mouthfeel helps make this a refreshing selection.

With a nice amber color, it has bready biscuit and dried apricots for the flavor, with the slightly bright hops rounding out the flavor, albeit it’s a little too hoppy. This tastes just like a hoppier version of the Oktoberbest from this brewery and Karl Strauss Brewing in San Diego.
