Surprised by the red color of this one. Caught my offguard as i didn't realize it was an amber. Nice look though. Clear walnut with 1 finger offwhite head. Not much retention, but decent lacing for the style.

Sweet notes to the smell, sugar, molasis, grain and pale lager malts.

Taste seems to follow nose with some added citrus and earthy hops. Husks of the grain. No astringency detected as can be the norm at times with the style.

Light body and fairly drinkable. Crisp and refreshing.

Nothing wrong with this beer as my expectations weren't all that high. An enjoyable lager that I woudln't mind having again.

Poured from a bottle into a mug. Ill try and keep my PA and bias out of this review. I used to drink this throughout college and growing up. Now as a real review, the beer is pretty average and good overall brew to have for a party. One finger head that quickly expires after a few minutes. Almost zero head retention. No real noticeable smell, a little malt, some floral notes I guess. Almost a chemical type nose and mouthfeel. I get large carbonation feel and aftertaste. Almost seems to transition to a watery taste. Maybe my tolerance is now sky high but it tastes more like 2%. I get a little bit of sweetness and some dryness. It's very drinkable, like I said, a good party beer. Decent and inexpensive, brings me back to my college years.
