This is a watered down version of original Blatz. Which means it tastes watery bad, and still gives you the runs the next day.

For a big light it is OK. Watery as you’d expect from this type of product. But not the lousiest thing I have drank.

The typical light golden color with a little head. Terse in flavor which makes it way too light and boring. There are good light beers out there but this is not one of them.

Not quite as good as Blatz original. Watered down Blatz flavor, better than most light beers at similar price level.

Not a memory rate, I drink as I think. Little sister of my well known friend blatz. Funny name huh? Sweet aroma with possibly a little cream corn, but not much. Possibly strong ale or a little malt liquor like on the smell. Ubiquitous pale yellow american color, what else? Friendly introductory taste. Mannered and well behaved, no offensive bite or bitterness. Not quite as good as Schmidts, old german or Carlesburgh. Much better than city lager or city ice. This is overall a good session brew, very repeatable for at least one session or a couple of yards.

They still package this swill? Talk about your macro-brewery milking an old brand’s reputation to death, this one should have been retired decades ago. Pours a near water honey hue, with no head. Aroma of soggy corn flakes in water (try it if you are curious) and some barnyard hay. Taste is nearly as clean as water. No aftertaste. C’mon Pabst/SABMiller, it’s time to allow this one to fade into history.
