Pored from a can into a pint glass
Appearance - Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. The head fades fast leaving just a touch of lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell- The aroma is grainy, and mixed with some corn and bread. Along with these smells comes a bit of hay and some harvest fruit.
Taste - The taste begins with a bready and caramel heavy taste mixed with a touch of corn and wheat. These tastes go to the end leaving one with a malty lager taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel - The body is heavy for a 5.5% brew with a moderate carbonation level. Good for the style overall.
Overall - A little malty, but Ok.

Very Malty and grainy taste. This beer is not my type of beer but is still good nonetheless.

From Beer Drop, no dating on the can.
It pours a pale gold, mostly clear, good long lasting head of foam, good lacing.
The smell is grainy, malty, some sweetness, I get a bit of corn, light bitterness.
The taste is quite good. Grain, hints of corn, bready malt, mild sweetness, enough hop bitterness to even things out.
Good mouthfeel. This is a rather good American Lager.

355 ml can served cold into a pint glass. Thanks Dan for this one.
Appearance - Lightly hazy dark golden colored brew with a half finger of white head that fizzles out pretty quick.
Smell - Clean and bready, with a fair amount of sweetness.
Taste - Plenty of grain, a lighter bready taste with lower bitterness level. There is something cucumber-esque going on here.
Mouthfeel - Medium light bodied with light carbonation. Quite easy to drink very quickly. Higher than average ABV well disguised.
Overall - Good lager, easy to drink and pretty tasty.

Taster at brewery. Clear, pale golden pour, fluffy white head. Light fruity aroma, melon. Taste is bready, more melon notes, a bit of cucumber. Fast finish.
