First Impressions:

The nose is slightly sweet and fruity.  The pour creates a moderate head.  The initial taste is best described as middle-of-the-road.

Mid-Drink:

There is very little in the way of a definitive hops or malt taste.  I can’t resist saying that this is a beer that would never offend anybody.  It’s an easy drinker  to an extreme.

After Word:

I can’t say that this is my favorite beer.  However, it is so inoffensive that I would never refuse one if offered. Certainly, there is no hint of “malt beverage” taste.  It’s simply a beer that aims not to shock or assault your taste buds.

Who Should Try:

This beer might be a good introduction to lager for those who aren’t 100% sure that they like beer.  For the rest of us, it’s simply another choice for smooth, easy drinking.
