Very watered down tastless beer with an unpleasent aftertaste. Can’t believe this beer sells millions along with other nasty beers from anheuser. Gotta love there advertising skills though.

Bottles, cans, taps. Available anywhere and everywhere. Yuck! My least favorite of all macrobrew light beers. Hate it considerably more than Canadian Light, Coors Light, Blue Light, and most of the rest. I guess it’s better than Lakeport Light..

Can. A - Pale light yellow. Faint white head. S - Clean with slight cereal grain smell. T - Some thin and light malt. Some cereal grains with sweetness. M - Light and thin. High carbonation and crisp. D - Easy to drink a lot of these; just like others in its style. Notes: Similar to others in the system and in the same situation (other Macros).

From a can. It pained me a little to give this swill the dignity of a glass. Pours a watery light yellow, through which I can clearly see my fingerprints. Decent head, but it doesn’t last longer than about 10 seconds. Smells like tinny citrus. Maybe some unripe banana. Tastes like... nothing. Absolutely nothing. I’m pretty sure something went in my mouth, but it sure didn’t grab my attention (that’s what she said). What might otherwise be mistaken for smoothness is actually a complete lack of character whatsoever. After a while, it starts tasting like a piece of baseball card bubble gum that you’ve had in your mouth since Nolan Ryan was throwing no-hitters. Cardboard, aluminum, and Elmer’s glue. This really is horrific.

Out of a can the way you are suppose to drink it. I love a great beer with tons of taste and the fact that other people dont like them make me wonder about their taste buds, but i also enjoy the macros because they are very easy to drink and satisfy my thirst in warm weather. I think bud light is the a good beer just a completely main stream one and that makes it uncool.

For those rookies looking to get into the beer drinking world, here is a "good" place to start. Beer is definitely something that takes a bit of getting used to during your first go-rounds, so start off with something light, like Bud Light, which tastes pretty much like skunky water. For everyone else, use this for a frat setting of either a case race or a game of Beirut.

This beer looks pretty, but the small head disappears quickly. Highly carbonated which attempts to make up for the light taste of horrible.

A: The pour is even lighter than I recall. Clear with an ever so slight yellow tint and lots of CO2 bubbles. The head disappears almost instantly. S: It smells pretty much like what you would expect: nothing. A slight grainy sweetness, but no skunk or hops or anything else, really. T: Like the nose, there really isn’t much to this beer. There’ some sweetness provided by the grains, but otherwise it’s very watery and bland. M: Normally I don’t mind the mouthfeel of light and adjunct lagers because they’re quite bubbly and I enjoy that part of them. This, however is just so thin and doesn’t have that same level of effervescence. D: It is "drinkable" because it’s so water-like, but I really have no desire to drink more of this beer. It’s just so bland and flavorless; I would rather take another light lager over this.
