My good friend and old neighbor from the 'Wego gave me a can of this beer. It poured a clear golden with white head that left a nice lace. The scent had grain and subtle white wine notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with crisp malt base and grain and Oakes white wine hints. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer .

Aroma is fruit bubblegum and a good hint of apple cider. The flavor is fruit, apple cider and a corn/malt/beery finish.

This is what the big brewers need to strive for, a tasty and clean everyday Lager. Looks like an aal on the pour, light straw color, but less carbonation and a nice sticky head that hung around for awhile. The flaked corn makes itself known in the aroma and taste. Really like the flavor of this. It's light with just enough bitterness to cut the sweetness of the corn. Well done.

Poured from a 16 oz. can into a glass. Nice head that dissipates into a short head with nice lacing. A little corn smell to the nose and then a drink produces a light lager taste that finishes with a slight barley bite. Overall a very satisfying lager that I will buy again.

poured from a 16oz can into a dimpled mug. pours a fairly clear straw gold with two fingers of fluffy white head. definitely get the corn on the nose and in the taste. missing a little of that clean lager yeast aroma and flavor to it but it’s still quite enjoyable. a little less carbonation than i’d prefer in a lager but it still has a full mouthfeel. pretty good adjunct lager.
