Handwritten notes: Better than other Great Western products as it does not go out of its way to offend me. At best it is a weak refresher, like what Coors Light would taste like if it had any inkling of flavour whatsoever. But an inkling is all this has. This is as watered-down as the word "premium", and just as meaningless. I bought this not realizing it came with a free hat. Yeah, sure I'll wear that. Maybe I'll wear it "camping". That's it! This beer is made for people who go camping. Me, I prefer room service, a hot tub, and half-decent beer.
