Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

UPDATED: NOV 18, 2007 Amber color with slight malty aroma. Decent head and usually always found on tap right next to BMC. An easy choice over macro brews. A good everyday lager that wont kill your wallet and is easely found in NJ. Cardboard like carbination taste sometimes can be a problem, especially if on tap
(Bottle) Pours a light amber color with a nice white head. Pretty good mouthfeel. Aroma is sweet and slightly malty. Light caramel and toffee in the aroma. A decent beer that I could drink a lot of.
A decent American lager. Uncomplicated yet, darker colored and richer tasting than most macrobrew lagers. Comparable in price to the Buds & Millers of the world, while being a lot smoother.
