On-tap at Back Street (Irvine)
A: The pour is a very pale yellow color with a few scattered bubbles on top.
S: Plenty of vegetables on the nose. Both fresh corn and corn husks, rotting vegetable matter, and skunk. Some very mild grain aroma, oh joy.
T: The taste of this is truly horrendous. Butter, creamed corn, more butter, drain cleaner, rotting food, garbage, and an indescribable funkiness. Quite the combination...
M: The body is light and watery with a moderate carbonation.
D: Wow, this is BAD. This is another one of those beers where there's really nothing good to say. Stay away from this beer.

Pours very, very pale yellow. Just not much to it.
This is an ale? Smells like almost nothing. It is pale, and the taste is basically nonexistent. I don't even know what to call it ... just water with vegetable skunk.
I've had a lot of epically bad lagers, but if this is truly an ale, it is easily one of the worst ales I've ever had. Watery, just awful. Why, Backstreet Brewery, why?

A-Clear, light golden yellow with a thin white head that left little lacing.
S-A bit of corn and a wafting of earthy hops. Fairly boring.
T-Inoffensive is the best term I can come up with. This is about as dull as dull can be without the beer actually being bad. It is not bad tasting it simply doesn't taste at all.
M-Light bodied and lifeless. I assume this is their BMC offering...the strike gold with this one!
D-Ho hum to the max. This is so boring I almost feel asleep into my pint glass drinking this one.

Consumed 04/14/08.
Extremely pale yellow with lots of active carbonation. Thin skin of foam for a head.
No aroma.
Flavor so thin as to be almost insubstantial. A slight malt sweetness up front and a barely perceptible bitterness at the end are the only components to the flavor. Slight parching on the tongue,
Imagine a macro lager without adjuncts.
