Session pounder. A beer to mow lawn by.

Clear light gold pour, white head that hangs around for a bit. Nose is vague grain.
Taste is mild light kilned malt, a nibble of sweet corn, some floral. Light mouthfeel. Finish is more of the same. Not great, but way better than I remember.

Never had this before but I liked the packaging. Got a six pack of pint cans at Meijer and I can't remember but it was less than High Life. The first thing was a strong sour front end which at first I didn't like but it grew in me over the six beers. This beer is better than High Life and Miller Lite. Less sweet. Good malt flavor. Very refreshing. I'll add it to the rotation.

I have to admit I judged this beer before trying it. I thought I would hate it but I don't, at all!
Smells like a pilsner and tastes a lot like one too. Good, clean easy drinking beer!

This is my go to summer beer.
It's fresh and light.
Great for those sweaty Summer days.
I drank quite a bit of it back in the 70's
So I guess that I'm "dating" myself.
They used the Blue "throwback", can last Summer and I really liked it.
I'm glad that it seems to be the design of choice now.
The best thing about it is the price.
When I rediscovered it about four years ago. The local grocery store was selling it for $13 for a 30 pack.
Now that it has become more popular the price has went up to $16 for a 30 pack.
Even with the price increase it's still a bargain for a really refreshing, smooth beer.

A: Poured into something like a pilsner glass to a bright and brilliantly clear yellow beer which is topped by a dense and slightly fluffy two and a half fingers of white head which fades slowly to a collar around the edge of the glass with decent lacing
S: Smells of slight spicy hops with some light grain aroma
T: Taste is slight hop pop on entry before some sweet grains and a hint of corn. On the finish there's lingering sweetness with a little more hop bitterness
M: This beer is fairly light in body with effervescent carbonation and a refreshing finish
O: Overall this beer isn't bad. It's pretty simple and straightforward. It drinks as you'd expect for a cleanly fermented adjunct lager would.

This is a classic American lager. It tastes like a classic American lager. I like the malty finish that is somewhat pronounced more than others like it. People crap on these beers, but if you want a good old standard, this meets the bill.

From a can, poured into a beer glass.
Light gold/straw colored.
A foamy, Somewhat effervescent head that has some retention, leaves some decent lacing.
A fairly smooth adjunct lager, flavor isn’t bad.
It isn’t great either, but we like to drink it.
Faint toasted malt flavors, hints of hops, nicely carbonated, clean finish.

16 oz. cans; drink by 1/26/26. Hamm’s has an appealing gold leaf color; very soft carbonation allows the foamy white head to settle into a sticky, patchy cap. The aroma has a simple, balanced graininess with a touch of apple skin. Flavor adds a little lemon to the aforementioned grains; there’s an apple skin note here that’s limited enough to be pleasant. The finish is off-dry, and the mouthfeel is light and smooth. Great lawnmower/boat beer, one that I’ll look to purchase again.

It’s a cool beer. Great price. A little sweet, not sure if that’s the corn syrup in it or not. Still very drinkable, nice summer beer. Cool history as a Minnesota person. Can art is classic and I dig it. Taste is clean but with a little too much sweetness. Could be more crisp or bitter. Still a rad beer I dig it.

Pale golden color and brilliantly clear. Pours a nice sized, tightly bubbled white head with decent retention. Fairly pretty. Non descript aroma, with a bit of a grainy sweetness. Flavor skews to the sweeter side as well - could be a lot crisper either with better attenuation or more bittering hops. Light-medium body and medium carbonation. No mouthfeel concerns. Very drinkable and unoffensive, but too sweet for my tastebuds.
