One of my favorite lagers to date. Nice straw color with transparency. Very corny tasting beer. Quite a different taste from other American lagers but that is most definitely not a bad thing in this case.

Oh man I remember these from when I was in the military. Its just adjunct lager with less advertising than the major brands. Pours light and super clear, feint yellow with 1/4" white head. Flimsy. Aroma of corn and grain. Its there.
Taste is just basically super fizzy corn syrup lite and a mild presence of barley and corn. Hops are just those super alpha acid in low quantity type. Maybe some 6 row going for it. Lots of carbonation to go around. This is basically an adjunct lager for those who think Budweiser is too strong, but don't wanna go all the way down to Bud Light. Its that middle ground.

It pours a translucent yellow color with a white head and lots of carbonation. The smell is bread but faintly. The taste is a sweet taste with a light hop flavor. Overall not bad, not good just average at best.

12 ounce bottle into lager glass, no bottle dating. Pours slightly hazy pale golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of lemon, cracker, corn, white bread, light toast/biscuit, and mild herbal/grassy earthiness. A bit too fruity on aromas. Poor aromas with pale malt/corn and mild earthy hop notes; with decent strength. Taste of lemon, cracker, corn, white bread, light toast/biscuit, and mild herbal/grassy earthiness. Mild herbal, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, cracker, corn, white bread, light toast/biscuit, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice robustness of pale malt/corn and mild earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Very clean on lager flavors, with minimal yeast notes present. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is good. A bit thin, but not watery. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is a decent pale adjunct lager. Other than the poor aromas, it had nice robustness of pale malt/corn and mild earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Very flavorful for the low ABV, and not too heavy on adjuncts. Clean pale malt/grain flavors and mild earthy hop balance. An enjoyable offering.

from the tab at New Orleans' Louis Amstrong airport
L nice fine foam but fledgling with some lacing
A Pilsner malt, hint of European hops like Saaz or Hallertau
T Pilsner malt, spicy hops present in the taste but not much bitterness
F Thin, refreshing and prickly
O very clean lager with a subtle hop presence. This will do its job on a hot Lousiana day especially given its low abv. However, not overly exciting.

I tried this a some bar on Bourbon Street. It poured a clear yellow with white head that is leaving a spotty lace. The scent was common to most American lagers....grain. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink. The mouthfeel is lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it's decent.

I don't see a bottle date. On a side-note the bottle is a twist-off.
Appearance: The body is a light gold to straw color with a slight amount of haze. There is no head but there is a small thin ring of foam around the rim.
Aroma: There is no real aroma with the exception of a very slim hint of corn.
Taste: There is a very light bit of hop bitterness in the beer with just a touch of alcohol and a bit of corn flavor way in the back. It is not a bad tasting beer but it just doesn't have a lot of flavor.
Mouthfeel: It feels about average in carbonation and it has a light body. It feels very light on the palate and just a touch watered down but it is not to the point where it impends the drinking experience.
Overall: It is a fairly average tasting AAL that isn't going to knock anyone's socks off but at the same time it isn't bad. It's not a beer I would particularly drink again or recommend but I wouldn't turn it down either.

Poured from 12-ounce bottle into lager flute. Attractive light golden color, with a two-finger fluffy white head that actually stuck around for a while and left quite a bit of pretty lacing. Aromas and flavors typical for the style, only with a little more depth and with a little more body. Although palatable when cold, a whole lot of unpleasant sweetness dominates on the palate as it warms. Above average.
