Bottle 43F Lager Glass. Light aroma a touch of light malts. LIght slightly cloudy appearance, little head. Not a lot going on here very light taste, no real hops, better than most macros but not much.

This is good for a light beer. It tastes weak, but this is of course to be expected of a light beer. It is crisp, clean, and refreshing though, so that scores it a plus. Pretty good.

Clear yellow with a white head. Bread aroma. Taste is lightly sweet malt with light bitterness. Watery. As expected.

A rather unimpressive light beer. Tastes like straw. Maybe a bit sweet. Waste of time.

Bottle. Dont really know why I even tried this since I dont like light beers. I do however like most of Abita’s brews. Actually not bad for a light beer, but I prefer something with more taste. Gold color, quickly dissipating head, no real lacing on glass, very little aroma. I guess if you really have to have a light beer this is as good as any, but that really isnt much of an endorsement, is it?

Pour is ginger ale yellow-ish and highly, highly carbonated. The small ring of bubbles that was supposed to be head faded fast. Aroma is of pale, weak hops. Flavor is all you can expect from a light beer, mostly water, and high carbonation. Very very disappointing.

12 oz bottle from sampler pack.Typical light beer. Little or no flavor. This beer is like making love in a canoe. Don’t know how far you’re allowed to go language wise in the ratings, so if you don’t know what this means, you’re on your own.

12oz bottle. Pours golden hue with a lasting white head and soda like carbonation. Nose is light herbal hops and sweet biscuit malt. Light, very crisp body. Light hops, sweet malt combine on the palate. Light finish. Not a bad brew for a light beer, but it is still a light beer.

Abita Light has a medium, off-white head and a fairly cloudy golden appearance, with moderate carbonation. The aroma is of barley, with a nice hop background smell. Taste is of bread, with a decent hop spice. Mouth-feel is light and watery, and Abita Light finishes crisp and refreshing. This is the best light beer I have ever consumed. RJT

Awful. A step up from bud light but not by much. Only positive about this beer is it goes down easy.
