Consumer Note: this beer is "authentically krauesened"

* Brilliant pale yellow with creamy bleached head leaves unexpected lacing on glass

* Floral nose includes "egg-like" sulfuriness and soapy aromas with the minutest suggestion of hop spiciness.

* Mildly sweet foretaste leads to a bit of canned corn flavor across the palate.

* Finish dries considerably; the result is a well-balanced aftertaste.

* Body is light.  Carbonation is fine and prickly.

Synhopsis:

Among the big national brand beers, I find Old Style --despite its defects-- to be one of the more palatable brews.  I find it less sweet...
