Transparent lightly yellow body with a shallow white head. A typical mild light beer aroma. Thin, watery mouthfeel. Very light malty taste with no aftertaste.

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.

Bland, tasteless crap, just like all the other Light beers I’ve ever had. I only drink something like this when it gets left on the boat by others who actually go out and buy it.
