Smooth and light; some light sweet caramel in the malts. Finished crisply, but no real hop presence. The medium gold body was thin, but not watery - actually more body than I expected.

No aroma. Not as light in color as I had expected. Golden color, slight slight head. Tastes of corn & yeast. It would be easier to drink if I could drink that type of beer (light). Overall Impression: Better than coors. "This is the kind of Light every brewpub should have to ween people off macros."

From a sampler: I was very surprised at how good this beer is. This is the kind of Light every brewpub should have to ween people off macros. Pours a pale gold color with a thin white head. Mild effervescence and minimal lacing. The aroma is lightly hopped with a touch of malt. More body than you would expect, with a fairly hoppy flavor that lingers well past the point most Lights would give up. There isn't much else going on in the flavor other than a bit of malt, but this isn't supposed to be a complex beer. The finish is lightly bitter hops. Overall this is one of the best Lights I have had and would recommend it as a great gateway beer for the macro drinker.

this isn't your brother's (who plays football and playstation) bud lite. it's much smoother, easier to drink, and has more flavors. taste it, try it, i dare you. come to the b&o and say hi.

Light and crisp, B&O's lager is still more flavorful than most american standards you'll find. I couldn't pin down the flavors but it's pleasant. Great alternative to any macro out there.
