look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Poured from a brown 12 oz. bottle. Has a golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of grains and malts. Taste is crisp, lots of grains, some malts, earthy, bitter at the finish. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a good session beer, probably better enjoyed during the summer.

look: 3 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3

A: pale golden yellow. a small head that didn't keep too long

S: Smells like a lager. A little adjunct corn flavor there but more of a yeast note with some buiscut thrown in.

T: Some pale malts. a grainy bread quality. a little citrus on the end.

M: Highly drinkable. Goes down smooth. A nice amount of carbonation. springy. Crisp.

O: Well this is refreshing. Nice and easy to drink. More flavors than your typical macro lager and the flavors that are there aren't bad at all. It goes down super easy. Reminds me of back in the day when i first started drinking. I could easily crush a ton of these. /78

look: 3.25 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.75

bottle into pint glass

appearance: very clear piss yellow, looks like an american macro, foamy white head

smell: corn, bready notes, rye

taste: typical corn macro lager taste but with some more complexities and spices that would not be found in a macro lager. Follows the nose with a lot of breadiness and some english malts. This is highly drinkable, very smooth and light.

mouthfeel: average carbonation, very light feel

overall: If you live in Michigan, and drink shitty lagers, you are an idiot. Why buy Bud or Coors when you can get this, for cheap... what a lager is supposed to taste like, just enough flavor to be enjoyable.

On-tap at Thirsty Monk, Asheville, NC

A: The beer is crystal clear light yellow in color and has a slight amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a thin white head that died down, leaving a thin collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Light aromas of corn and pale malts are present in the nose.
T: The taste is similar to the smell and has some faint hints of malty sweetness.
M: It feels light-bodied and clean on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This isn't a bad beer for the style considering that adjunct-like flavors do not prominently stand out.
