Pours a pale pale pale pale pale pale yellow (you thought I was gonna say pale, didn't you?) with minimal head. Actually, I'm being a bit harsh- it's not that pale, it's more moderate yellow, and with a VERY vigorous pour, a medium white head pops up.

So how did I stumble on this beer? My sense of mystery and thriftiness caught up with me, and I bought a "mystery bag" from Trader Joes- 8 beers (actually 9) for $6. I got a couple of decent finds, so this is ok to try too.

Aroma is, well, I can't really find one. Maybe a slight, very slight grain profile. Slightly sweet- corn like?

Flavor. Drunk at cellar temps, this beer has harsh hop bitterness, and it is awful. Watery, no body, not good.

Ok saw this in Trader Joes today..was bored so gave it a try.
Actually not that bad for a Low carb beer, to look at..typical macro yellow bubbly head.
The smell is atrocious though..rotten potatoes and burnt grass..with some soap in the background.
Thankfully the taste( lessness) was not as bad as the aroma, this is seltzer water with a splash of beer.
Nasty on the palte..initially full of bubbles then a weird sticky nastiness in the back of the mouth.
Like all low carb beers this is awful..a crime against hops and malt everywere.
