This beer pours golden in color, with a fizzy white head that rapidly dissolves. It is well carbonated. The aroma is bright, a bit of apple fruit, a bit of sweetness, a touch of grain. It drinks crisp, light without being overly watery, a bit of grain, some light apple and a slight touch of hop bitterness. I think this was about $2.99 a six pack from Trader Joe's, so for that price, it is a decent drinkable American adjunct lager, but it is not nearly as good as the comparably priced Big Flats 1901 from Walgreens.
I think the name and the look of the can are amusingly generic.
I was very surprised by this beer. I bought it because of the price, 2.99/6 pack, and the flavor is nothing like other beers. At first it tastes like beer of questionable quality, but the flavor changes in your mouth into something more cidery. Refreshing. I will definitely try the Walgreens Big Flats.

I like it just fine. A bit on the carbonated side, but pleasant taste and finish.
