Another super yellow flimsy no head appearance from Evans brewing company. The aroma was moldy hay and copper and aluminum. Putrid stuff.

Holy crap the amount of fusel or rubbing alcohol with no malt/barley to soak it up is brutal. Fuck, Keystone Light smokes this beer. This is a serious avoid.

It's ok beer. Much better than the Lean or whatever it is called. Nice refreshing...creamy...searching for hops makes me think and try really hard. I might just be imagining them. I am not imagining the corn.

Minnesota is the number one state for corn production I think...well some fell in the beer...but I can drink this!

Clear yellow with almost no head, terrible aroma, wet hay and rusty metal.

Taste, wow, it got worse, horrible offtaste of oxidized bong water left at the bottom of a metal trash can. No hops, no malt, just rubbing alcohol fusel style. Some sweet to it.

Much worse than almost all BMC esque stuff. The plastic and metal mouthfeel is the worst part. Totally not recommended.

12 oz can into a pint glass

A: Yellow with slight golden tones. weak bubbly head forms and dissipates leaving no lace.

S: Actually a nice clean malt aroma with only slight hop balance. Decent.

T: Sweetish, light and clean. Not very memorable but the aftertaste is too sweet and a bit unpleasant, much like malt liquor.

M: Thin, unremarkable.

D: Wouldn't seek out again but might have one or two if it was the only thing around amongst friends.
