Pours with a big, fluffy head that dissolves rather rapidly. Aromas of sweet grain and yeast. Very sweet flavor. Tastes of sugary bread and grains. Not an unpleasant taste, but a little too sweet for my liking. Tastes pretty good for an adjunct lager, and is one of the cheapest cans in the tall boy cooler. Has very cool packaging too.

This is an average lager. $1 for 1 24oz can. Works for me.

Port Republic Lager Beer has a thick, white head, a clear, bubbly straw appearance, and some slight lacing left behind on the glass. The aroma is of sweet, grainy, stereotypical lager, and the flavor is the same, with a shade of hop bitterness to round it out. Mouthfeel is light and watery, with an unfortunate faint chalky under-taste. Port Republic Lager Beer finishes crisp and refreshing.

I drank it from a 24 oz. can so I can't comment on the appearance. This was one of cheapest,babe in the woods, I have found. For the everyday PBR or Bud drinker, this beer excelled both in price, drink-ability and refreshment. Thank you Mr. Middle-East convenience store clerk for a positive recommendation.

LOOK: Pale yellow, clear, small white topping disappears quickly.
SMELL: Stale, grainy smell. The aroma is a hodge podge of corn, rice, generic malt sweetness and a small hint of processed hop.
TASTE: Tastes ultra clean, mildly sweet and rice is the primary flavor.
FEEL: Light bodied, watery, well carbonated
OVERALL: pretty lame lager.

14.99 for a 30 pack here in Durham N.C.
This is a great,cheap american lager...great meaning slightly above average as a whole.
This beer is also known as Big Flats 1901,which you can buy at Walgreens...but this version tastes a better.Its not as offensive to the nose and has hardly any aftertaste...a great sessionable beer.Good on a hot day or when youre watching t.v.
Make sure you keep this beer cold....it does get a bit unwieldy as it warms up.
If youre not a fan of american lager then this is not for you.Elite beer enthusiasts,if you like cheap "bad" beers....you may be surprised by this beer.
This is my new beer that im going to keep the fridge stocked with,PBR was my regular but its popularity has made it alot more expensive...my new Sunday beer for when im broke

A - Pours an extremely clear gold with a massive frothy white head. Virtuall no carbonation bubbles. Left almost no lacing
S - Grain husks, corn adjunct, rice, white grapes, metal.
T - Seltzer water, corn husks, white grapes, metal, rice adjunct, rubbing alcohol finish if drank from the can.
M - medium bodied with almost no carbonation.
O - Overall, this was just slightly above your average mass produced swill. For the price tag ( $16.99 a 30 pack ) i'd say this is probably the second best beer in it's range. Pabst is first. This makes a good party beer however.
