Glaring barleymalt dryness combines with soft hop bitterness for perfunctory Northwest lager. Zesty fruitiness and mint backdrop can't help watery, flat, bland, inorganic finish.

Cloudy moderate-bodied Czech-styled pale lager with barley-roasted malting accentuated by floral hops stays delicate, yet efficient. Brewery defunct: 1998.

Subtle wheat-grained cereal opening integrates sweet caramel corn, toasted barley and baguette illusions with muted fruiting of bohemian-styled lager. Lemony orange souring overrides tidy apple spicing, minor coarse astringency and backend acidity. Honeyed Scotch malting creates sinewy mouthfeel. Basic ingredients connect the dots well.

Moderate pale golden dry body imparts flashy hop-spiced citric-quince tang to crystal malted alacrity and nut bread toasting, finishing thin.

Unconvincing straw-hued, white-headed, musty-grained lager calmed by soft malt overlay, tinny salted butter scour, and terse peppery hop tingle. Muted fruitiness left behind at bland finish, severely limiting overall appeal.

Rugged skunked malt odor swamps green-bottled billowy pearl-headed faded gold Greek 'Hellenic.' Dissipating barleymalt flap, corn syrup scourge, and cereal grain stipend bungle indistinct sugar-hopped fizz water.

Mundane malt liquor swill with offensive grain alcohol mandate, funky cider pungency, and sordid grain slunk nearly salvaged by sticky corn syrupy malts. Sagging rice base and oily nature diminish tertiary ester-y grape souring. Soapy finish fades quickly.

Molson version of antiquated American macro proves less is more as minor hop fizz, wispy wheat whisk, and sparkling water crispness offer Canadian upgrade. But dry lemon pith pucker and grain backing lack resolve.

Nasty corn-oiled lager with cloying glutinous wheat backdrop truly sucks. But 30-packs found for $15 will please indigent vagrants and high school dorks alike.

Supposed  'traditional Slovak' golden lager sinks dry-hopped grain overtones into pasty caramel malt pleasantry. Herbal citric spicing tingles lingered nut bread finish, but light-bodied watery nature lacks depth of better Eastern Europeans such as Czechvar.

Deer head label is all to recommend of pale gold bore. Malt-soured maize simplicity meets fizzy flat finish that gets metallic to boot.

Simplistic sudsy saltwater light body as fresh and clean as the Hawaiian surf. Soft buttered malt sedation and delicate floral hopped citric swerve perfect for mainstream lagerheads.
