Commonplace clear golden Texan with crisp fizz-hopped water flow, slight wheat backdrop, and serviceable malt median lacks sufficient head, body, and finish. Mainstream best seller stuck in purgatory.

Distant pungent malt liquor scent nearly clashes with initial dry hop fizz and sweet barley thrust of soft-headed amber. Sugary sweetness borders on cloy and sour yeast backdrop can't save premature finish. Better in the '70s.

Pungent aroma dispelled by timid bread-like mouthfeel, soft wheat-rice backbone, salt water flow, and gentle cobweb lace. Smoky hints and hay-like finish casually infiltrate grain balm.

Sedate cereal-grained maize-floured moderate body layers peppy hop fizz over glutinous wheat sweetness as light skunk waft persists. Narrow pilsner-like template gets watery and washed-out so drink 'em from smaller 8-ounce bottles.

Once mainstream blue collar fodder sold at Mets baseball games, this traditional dry lager lives on in its better updated version boasting brighter orange-yellow body and minor turbidity. Pleasant fruited hop aroma and toasted barley-wheat backbone add new dimension to prominent sour malt frontage (which remains similar to original recipe). But sharp bitterness is gone by short-changed aftertaste.

Complacently phenol light-bodied lager conjures comparisons to limpid South of the Border macrobrews such as Corona. Understated roasted barley hesitance, dry hop-fizz, and dour sourdough thinness appease illusive pumpkin-spiced dusting.

Drab aluminum-yellowed pale lager lets cloy rice-sugared sourdough buttering, thin mineral-grained spice hop zip and ginger-leafed maize husk get lost amongst musty corn-oiled backdrop. Musky dry-smoked beechwood soaping, bland cotton-candied nuance and pale-malted cardboard plainness depleted by ruinous chemical solvency and briny lemon-salted bittering of horrid Latino, further complicating matters.

Puffy beige-headed wood chip-burnt blonde lager proffers buttery caramel creaminess. Leafy hop bitterness, subtle malt vacillation, and sweet yeast amble provide even-handed complement not far removed from honey-soaked India Pale Ales.

Sweet whiskey malt-wafted Greek pale body secures moldy orange souring and alcoholic cognac tinge for dry wheat-backed flack. Vanilla creaminess and light spicing lost amongst mild acidity.

Way too cloy and harsh with rugged corn sugar flow not unlike stank-y American malt liquors. Fizzy caramel-hop tease and heady 8% alcohol strength are only saving grace.

Tepid amber-clouded mocha-scented lager with unassuming hop fizz fades gently to mild pale malt finish.

Simple, easygoing straw-cleared lager maintains stalwart gluten wheat stickiness, fresh-cut barley earthiness, and bread-y yeast continuation. Corn syrupy finish picks up dry rye enhancement.
