Had bottles. 1 into a 7oz taster.
L: Pours fairly gold and clear w a thin white head, some big carbo bubbles, head recedes, a little lacing.
S: spicy hops, caramel malts, grains, lightly earthy & sweet.
T: Follows aroma with corn, sweet malts and hops well balanced. It is lightly metallic.
F: A gentle crisp hop snap then smooth & malty w some caramel sweetness in the medium bodied center. It has a med-fast finish that is lightly drying.
O: A very easy drinking Pale Lager that is nice straight from the bottle. They go quick. A nice year-round beer I've seen only a few times. It is lightly sweet and okay in its style.

I used to enjoy this beer---I drank it real cold and real fast (being a small bottle it works well for this.) Apparently it's not very good, based on other reviews. But I enjoyed it!

I recently got this beer. It pours golden, a little bit hazy with a very mild white foam head. Aroma is very sweet, malty and some adjuncts, no hops. Taste is very sweet, lots of residual sugars there, overwhelming and not very refreshing. It´s a very good looking bottle, with a poor content.

Poured from a 16oz can.
Bit of sweetness makes this actually not too bad.
