For my money, this is the best light beer on the market. It is better tasting than Heineken Light and waaaay better than Coors light, bud light, blue light and others that have that metallic taste. This tastes like beer

Right, I would like to hear from other beer enthusiasts who could quite categorically state that this isn’t the best light beer in production at present? Because, I’m at a loss to find a light beer better than this, that you can drink in a bar having to drive home. I rate it, and I rate it high.

My go to light beer. Actually tastes good. Goes down smooth, and you can drink a lot and still keep your wits.

Maybe the best "light" beer as far as body and flavor. Overall a good "crisp" lager.

smooth, smooth, smooth. Very tasty beer

a nice aroma and appearance. the flavor is crisp and then a nice after taste.

Suprising full bodied for a light beer. Better than any I’ve ever tried. Holds up very well to the American light beers whic leads to the question: Most Anerican beers are already watered down, so why make a light beer? Coors light? Bud light? It just doesn’t make sense. I haven’t tried regular Amstel becasue I have actually never seen it in the states. Do they sell it over here?

Very quality beer. Reminds me of the good old days when a beer tasted like a beer, not water. No aftertaste. Very smooth and lots of taste.

This beer has a golden body - hue apperance and a white scum collar. I have drunk the beer from the bottle and it had a no carbonic acid. The initial flavor tast was sweet/bitter with a fine afther tast like a Pilsener.
