Bottle. A - Light gold, bordering clear. Pretty large, white head. S - Grainy, corn scent. Fairly sweet smell, but not all that active of a smell. T - Light flavor, light malt and some grain/corn sweetness. Also has a slight hint of hops. M - Light and watery, but fairly smooth. D - Easy to drink, like the rest from this style. Notes: As far as light beers and Macro-like beers, it is decent. However I don’t know if the slight improvement is worth the increase in price.

This beer is extremely light. The flavor is of corn and water. Pours a pale yellow without a head.

Can. 12 oz. Michelob is okay, but the light variety is a huge step down. Bland, watery, and boring.

Water. Scratch that. This is water with a hint of skunky grain. Worse then bud light.

12 oz. single bottle purchased at Food Emporium in Lynnwood. Pours a clear light golden yellow with minimal head. Not much of an aroma, though. Flavor: A little skunky, with a hint of corn and lemongrass.
