COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A special light beer containing only 3.5% alcohol and approximately 35% fewer calories than regular lager beer. But every bit as thirst-quenching and refreshing.

PGHbeer77 (483) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - SEP 9, 2012
12 oz. Bottle. THIS IS HOW DESPERATE my choices on a military base have become, so I gave it a shot. Yeck. Just dreadful. Faint cat piss scent. Very light yellow pour, like a cheap apple juice, with a thin head. LIght watery feel, crisp at least. Bitter basement nasty taste.

Rune (6362) - Tromsø, NORWAY - SEP 2, 2012
330ml can picked up at a SuperMarket in Rethymno. Pale golden body, loose, white head, some lacing. Weak smell of fruit mixed with grain. Taste of lemon mixed with grainy water. Soft carbonated. Thin. Possible to drink (hotel room, 15.08.2012).

I’m really not a lager person, but I have a slight affection for this beer. It has the skunky smell of a lager, but it has a crisp bitterness that appeals to me.

b3shine (2453) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - AUG 26, 2012
Bottle to pint (from notes). Looks decent; golden with white head that dissipates into lacing. Smells and tastes mildly sweet and skunky, but not in a bad way. Average on the palate. One of the best light beers out there, and better than it’s reviews suggest.

tanstil (101) - Athens, GREECE - AUG 24, 2012
0,33l can. A clear golden light beer with white head. The aroma is light malty. The taste is watery with soft notes of malts and hops.

robloc303 (175) - Erie, Colorado, USA - AUG 17, 2012
Pours pale yellow, real skunky, smells like Heineken... Not much going on here... Kinda gross. I like light pale lagers, but this is flavorless and smells bad...

rjplumer (325) - Foxboro, Massachusetts, USA - AUG 2, 2012
(12 oz. can)Light corn grain aroma. Pours a healthy two finger white head though it doesn’t linger long. Pale golden yellow with active carbonation. Plain clean taste with a light finish. Has a light straw feel. It’s ok for the style but wouldn’t go out of my way for this.

I’m able to taste more than adjuncts. There are better light beers, but this is one of the few I’d be willing to drink if there’s nothing else.
