Sharp hop fizz, corn malt usurpation, and tailing grain bitterness coerce lemon-lime briskness to watery finish, settling into medium-bodied oblivion.

Pungently musty toasted barleymalt aroma-palate contrasts gentle citric tang and fizzy clean-watered flow of  pale-bodied moderation. Delicate pepper-hopped orange blossom finish lacks firmness. Fine for delicate tastes or as alternative to godawful ‘lite’ beers, but too anonymous for the rest.

Soft barley undercurrent runs through well-hopped white-headed pale lager. Ample carbonation brings out creamy mocha malt luster, but lack of thick grain assertion hurts its ‘double hopped’ classification.

Don’t let inconspicuous pale tone of enchanting golden amber-hued lager (a.k.a. Closter Zell) trick you into thinking it’s weak one-dimensional fodder. Easy flowing malt whiskey sweetness and candy-coated yeast caress pick up dark fruit nuances by serene wheat finish.

Middling moderate-bodied pale lager with sweet barley-rice graining and ticklish carbolic fizz soaking up sugary malting. Predictable, simple, soapy. Serve to light pilsner enthusiasts only.

Called the ‘taste of America,’ but merely an overly familiar alternative to slushy macrobrewed pilsners. Dismal, cloy, soapy golden brown lager lacks efficient carbonation and grain punch so only indiscriminant rednecks need apply. Brewery defunct: 2006.

Embedded grain primacy heightens checkered Scotch malt mesh. Thicker head and fuller body would benefit overall durability of mere session beer.

Bright golden amber brings raspy spice-hop bitterness to wheat-roasted cereal grain sweetness. Noticeable sinewy yeast texture increases resolve and insinuating red-fruited spiciness puts it closer to a red ale.

Oceanic salt water crispness and clear biege appearance redolent of Caribbean sea surrounding native Antigua. Nimble pale malt sweetness given subtle hop fizz that informs soft finish for middle of the road smoothie perfect for simple tastes.

Bland medium-bodied Mex with quick burst of musty rice-grained corn husk above light watery mouthfeel and damning metallic sheen. Casually astringent dry-hopped bittering  juxtaposes harvest wheat finish.

Smooth lemon-limed lightweight offers dulled whiskey malt sweetness to casual dry-hopped bittering. Soft wood smoked tinge leverages buttery finish.

Clover honey waft prefigures corn cereal buoyancy, creamy caramel malt seduction, and intervening chalky mocha-cocoa souring as tamped down hops fortify buttery finish of fine pale amber. Slight departure from usual grain-based South American beers.
