Maybe not, but there could be DMS which smells an awful lot like corn from a tin can. Not saying there is or isn't.

In this case there isn't, the only nose you get from the beer is a very nice Kent Goldings hoppiness and a bit of maltiness. She's litereally the only one who thinks that, but then again, she really only likes fruity beers so maybe all mid-strength ales and lagers that aren't fruity taste the same to her.

I don't know about you, but I happen to think Yuengling is pretty tasty. While she was probably completely wrong, I would take it as a compliment.

I agree, can't get it here in AR so that makes it even tastier to me, cuz I know when I go to Memphis I'm gonna get a case.

I didn't even think it was distro'd that far out. I'm lucky to be relatively close to the brewery.

My younger brothers girlfriend tried a schwartzbier of mine and the first thing that she said was that it tasted like soy sauce.

No one agreed with her, but I do appreciate the comment. It was certainly the most random thing I've heard said about my brew

Man I've tried all kinds of soy sauce beers. It can happen sometimes with dark malts. A guy at the brew club brought in one that tasted like straight Kikkoman. It might not be strong, but I would give it to her.

Don't waste your breath. Every single time people are told that the ridiculous comment is actually a legitimate off-flavor observation, they respond by assuring everyone that their beer was absolutely flawless.
