Pale yellow appearance with a small amount of bubbly white head that quickly disappears leaving no lacing. Smell consists of grain, cereal, sweetness and heavy corn.

Taste is similar to the smell, picked up grain, corn, some sweetness and cereal. Slightly earthy and grassy, but that's stretching it. Very generic adjunct lager taste so far. Medium bodied with low carbonation. Aftertaste is dry with a lingering grain taste.

Label describes it all, very bland and generic beer. While nothing offensive; there are no distinguishable features besides chug ability. But how can you turn down something called "Beer Beer" in a plain white label? Bring to a party as a joke.

Poured in a 12 oz Pilsner Glass, it has a nice head of foam...

the appearance is golden light,

the smell is natural, the taste is surprisingly good and not bitter,

mouthfeel is that of a middle aged beer,

overall it is an alround good beer for the cost

Before I say anything about this beer, I feel I should mention that it's probably the cheapest beer I've ever seen. Something like $4.60 for a six-pack.
355ml can poured into a 16oz pint glass.

A - Highly carbonated head of white fizz. Gone in about 10-15 seconds. Transparent golden-yellow. Absolutely no head retention and no lacing whatsoever. Looks like apple-juice with a slight touch of fizz.

S - Sweet and grassy upfront, with light malt and adjunct grains prevalent as well. Some sweet corn and cereal.

T - Light grassy sweetness. Grains. A slight syrupy corn sweetness that isn't very nice. Incredibly bland, but not totally offensive...

M - Over-carbonated for sure. Medium-bodied, but drinks like fizzy water.

D - Easily one of the blandest beers I've ever tried. Still a clear step up from Keystone or Lucky, but that isn't saying much. Considering the name, can design, and price, this could have been A LOT worse.

Thanks to woodychandler for the trade. Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a light golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is mild, some sweetness. Taste is crisp, slightly sweet, not a whole lot of flavor but nothing offensive. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and has good drinkability. Overall this is your standard, run of the mill adjunct lager.

This can had me at "Beer", but they had to throw in the extra "Beer", and well, nothin' else. Huh. I suppose "Beer" can be an adjective...

This beer pours a crystal clear pale golden colour, with lots of foamy, soapy white head, which reduces to a thin meniscus quite quickly. It smells of sweet white grain - mostly glutinous rice, and some skunk - level, oh, say 2. The taste is basic white grain - the usual rice or corn sweetness is pretty subdued though, enough to let some very mild weedy, skunky hops briefly traipse through the scene - skunk level surprisingly low, keeping steady at a 2. The carbonation is quite low for this kind of beer, the body light, pretty clammy, but weirdly, or maybe just unexpectedly, smooth. It finishes off-dry, the innocuous grain riding things out, and the skunk really drops off from its already low standing.

Well, what can I say - this didn't blow my socks off - that was always going to be the case, but it sure isn't anywhere nearly as offensive as its typical brethren, with a respectably low skunk factor - maybe the minimally branded can is responsible in part for this.

I am unsure about the beer style, but I have called the brewery and left a message, so an update may be forthcoming.

Well, it CAN't get more generic than this! "Beer Beer" in red letters on an otherwise white CAN. Straight out of "Repo Man".

My pour created an explosive finger of bone-white head that burped and fizzled its way out of existence. Color was a faintly hazy lemon yellow. Nose had the now-familiar sweetness of lager made with cereal adjuncts. I am pretty sure that I have this right for style. Mouthfeel was medium with a lager-like sweetness accompanied by a grassy hoppy bite on the tongue. Now, I am beginning to wonder again. Things that make you go "Hmm." It had an odd finish, sort of sweetish, but then taking on an earthy characteristic. I am not sure this would be very good other than cold. The more I allowed it to warm, the less I liked it. I am glad that I could again be a Guinea Pig, since it came to me in a CANTrade, but it is not worth seeking out, nor putting into one's cooler.
