Stay clear of nasty foam-headed clear-yellowed corn-malted adjunct lager. Sugary rice caking usurps cloy lemon pop fizz. Almost disgustingly offensive.

Generic sudsy pale lager (named after Southern California tattoo collector) maintains fizzy hop-spiced sharpness above cheap corn-rice adjuncts that seep into glutinous wheat spine. Solvent-like finish and latent phenol nature further disrupt.

Awkwardly aggressive dry-spiced lager tries too hard to please blue collar thirsts and extreme hop-heads alike. Sticky almond-pasted marzipan-butterscotch influence raids toasted caramel malts, but astringent Scotch souring and dank whiskey drear lead nastily coarse malt liquor assault for wayward Swede.

Lackluster yellow-hazed light-bodied German pilsner-styled pale lager lacks distinction. Fizzy honey-toasted buttering counters mild grassy-hopped bittering to glutinous wheat backdrop. Deficient sourdough finish gets soapy.

Meek straw-yellowed moderate-bodied witbier-likened Catalan lager in green-tinted wine bottle could use better up-front doughy insistence and richer fruitiness (though its mild nature complements vinegar-based salads, tuna, and salmon). Seltzer-like citric spicing wavers below wet-papered sorghum flouring, wheat-honeyed crystal malting, and gentle ginger herbage. Washed-out lemon candied tartness, floral mandarin orange wisp and unripe peach subsidy gain acidity while under-whelming orange peel, coriander, and lime illusions prove negligible for fizz-toned summer session beer.

Simple pale-bodied session beer that’ll satisfy poorer American blue collar tastes. Sour corn-oiled turn-off picks up dry phenol hop bittering fortifying fragile barley-roasted wheat-cracked spine to minimal soapy finish. Oily diacetyl mouthfeel, putrid Scotch malting, green apple souring, and cooked vegetable tinge beat down satisfactory rice adjunct.

Red Hook-brewed Hawaiian-styled pale lager may lack depth (and taste somewhat different from original version), but dry-bodied toasted bread frontage and multi-grained pumpernickel-rye respite will please whole-wheat bread eaters. Zesty citric esters and sour green raisin wisp bring meager fruited swirl. 

Eye-catching circus freak-labeled series continues with complex 10% alcohol-fueled German-styled doppelbock posing as a strong lager. Sugary ginger sweetness invades red cherry, golden raisin, purple grape, and apricot fruitiness as well as buttery molasses-chocolate malting. Peppery hop fizz simmers tertiary gin-soaked barleywine, Chardonnay, and rum boozing and slight metallic twang. Like the finest non-flavored vodka, this full-bodied lager elevates its supplemental ingredients.

Supposed German-styled lager corrupts Seltzer-watered lightness with sagging chocolate malt lag. Musty barley-toasted mocha sweetness can’t overcome bland, indistinct finish.

Gimmicky one dimensional lager lacks luster after green jalapeno pepper hits you like hot tamale at first swallow. Distant garlic uneasiness usurped by harrowingly cloy finish.
