    As a man who is 56 years old I'm amazed at how many horrible beers I've drank in my life. And yes this is just another one of those on the list. I'm so glad that life has let me live long enough to to enjoy the good beer.

    Pours a clear straw golden with a fluffy large head with decent lacing left on the glass. The aroma is very mild, with light hints of corn adjuncts, grass, and a distinct floral note. The taste is pretty corny, adjunct laden. The back-end is metallic and has a weird vegetable taste. The mouthfeel is light body and high carbonation, very drinkable and has a slight dryness to it.

    For the money, this is the best beer in the world. Not many groceries or corner stores carry Schaefer, and if they do you are most likely in New England (even though it's brewed in WI, it was initially brewed in Brooklyn, and it does have a loyal fan base in the surrounding regions.) I currently live in Portland Oregon, the microbrew capital of the USA, and still I pine for my college days in Connecticut when I could get absolutely plastered on delicious beer for less than 10 bucks. The flavor is tinny and sweet, and goes down easier than a new girlfriend on your birthday. It's fairly unassuming at first, sure, but it grows on you. After several thousand, believe me, it grows on you. I look forward to it as much as anything whenever I return to the East Coast.

    This is one of the oldest beers brewed in America..........and I'm convinced the can I just had dates from the original batch. A nice clear gold colour with a huge white head predominates. The aroma is skunky and rank and almost makes me gag. The flavour is metallic malt with some budweiser beeriness in the aftertaste.

    Another blast from the past. Gold, cold and fizzy. I remember this being on tap at the legion and VFW It often had a metal taste if drank from the can. We kept this in the barn fridge for after haying. When it is 90 outside and 120 in the hay loft this was the best stuff you ever had.

    I have no idea what this stuff actually looks like. I've nevere poured one to observe, rather I've just sucked it straight from the can. Taste is horrible, most especially when even slightly warm. It's what you drink when you're digging coins from under the floor mats.

    People please. It's not that bad of a beer, to be a cheap beer. This is another oldy but goody for a pour southern man. Not as good as a PBR but man I've had some good times in the river swamp catfishing and drinking Schaefer beer. Better if kept cold before downing it.

    I have family members who bring this stuff to gatherings and i have to say i am glad they wasted thier money instead of mine. This beer is not something you want to drink.

    I have been drinken this bew ever since I've been riding motorcycles. That is a long time. I can't help but be biased by all the good times I've had while drinking this brew. I've had this since before it was a BMC and pabst was breing it. This is a good beer that is just right for the price. A good ubiquitous american pale yellow beer. Pop the lid and you get a slightly sour aroma. The taste of this beer is clean, it must be the same recipe as when it was made by pabst because it still tastes about the same. Finish leaves you wanting more and how can you pass this up at the price? $1 per can at the State Line Tavern in East Palestine Ohio.

    The can assured me I wasn't drinking water. I wasn't expecting anything great when I picked up a twelve pack, I knew it was swill but I needed something for when I was painting. Never poured it out of the can so I am assuming that it is very pale yellow in color with a slight head and good carbonation. The aroma was non-existent. Mouthfeel was very thin, I have never had a beer that was this thin. The flavor is very subtle which makes this an easy drinking beer. At first I thought it was really bad, but after a couple it started to grow on me. Overall a drinkable beer that lacks any distinguishing qualities, the odds of me buying this again are slim to none.
