Not bad for a malt liquor. Although it’s not as strong as some of the other ones. I guess that’s why they call it light. Just a boring cheap beer.

Dang I used to love the Black Star Black Lager these guys put out..i thought they were out of business..but I have began to see 24 oz cans of this Light appearing. Appearance is pretty average american macro..pale yellow but with a good sized white head..it goes fast to leave a slight lace. Smell is non-existant..some hops maybe. This is not the same Black Star I remember..this is weak weak macro puke....no malts some small hops but very feeble this is meant to be "double hopped" or so the can says..maybe that means 0.0001% hp compared to 0.00005%? Not impressed by the yukky mouthfeel Not drinkable. What the heck happened to this company...ahhhh now Isee its no longer brewed in Montana, but in Milwaukie Wisconsin..I smell a macro take over of this company and it sucks

Horrible. I should just end my rating there. No flavor with a disgusting finish. Alcohol seems to dominate the finish. I took three drinks and now I'm going to dump it down the drain.
