This beer is better than the average macrocrap, but I can't drink too many of them due to previously mentioned burn out.

It was one of my favorites growing up, and it was a nice reminder of home when I was in Colorado. Agree with other posts that Miller ruined it (kinda like AMF almost did to Harley Davidson.)

I have very fond memories of this beer in college (even the Henry's Ale!) but it has more of a skunky taste since it's been brewed by Miller. Not bad, just not as high on my list of beers anymore. User: blitzfan  (46 reviews/ratings)  Added: 02-07-2005 Location: Portland, OR Type: Can Bottle Tap/Keg Rating: A standard lager, perhaps a bit heavy with carbonation. Anyway this is a classic in the Oregon area so it deserves a place in my heart. Certainly a step up from bud, miller, and coors, but not to the level of refinement as a micro brew, like an Oregon Honeybeer or something.
