little flavor

This has too little flavor for my family and friends to enjoy. Would have been better with a little more hops.
You gotta be kidding

I can't understand why anyone would drink this.
why not?

wow, full of yourself much? I'm glad someone is brewing the beer HE likes instead of whatever touched-by-the-gods loony juice you drink.
Lot of 6-Row for the grain bill...

Curious... At around 40% of the bill being 6-row, Did you have any problems with chill haze? I'm also assuming that you precooked the rice or used ready to mash rice flakes?
not quite what I expected

I made this for a friend who likes the very light lagers and it was still to hoppy and had flavors she was not use to. I'm finding she like the wheat beers much better. I haven't brewed this one again. The rice brings up the alcohol without additional flavors and worked quite well. It is a bit cloudy but so is heaven.
