Got this one at Fibbers in Dublin. It was the only beer there I hadn’t had so I had to try it. Yep tasted pretty much like normal like the flagship beer; very light and fizzy with the only taste being faint (and gross) notes of grain and corn. Thin and watery with almost no finish to speak of. But the worst part was the lies. I’m glad I got this at Fibbers because this beer was a fib. There was nothing particularly cold about this once it hits your mouth, despite the advertising. That lie turned a bad beer into an abomination.

Clear yellow with a thick white head. Slight aroma of skunk. The finish was kind of dry. I’ve had better beers!!!

UPDATED: SEP 2, 2010 Still not sure why Budweiser bottles so many versions of urine. I guess its better than the Natty, and I don’t think I’ll purposely try the light version

Bottle- Pours a clear light color with a billowy white head. There was no real smell to speak of just a bit grainy. Taste has a hint if sweetness and not much more. Feel is light with decent carbonation. Needs to be served ICE cold!

From a 12oz can it pours a clear yellow-orange color with a big white head. Unpleasant aroma. Some sweetness, but that is mostly hidden by an indescribable odor. It hurts to smell this thing. Flavor is pretty non existent. Sweet corn-like flavor, and nothing much else. Really thin and watery beer. I think next time i’m going to have to drink this directly from the can.

Zero aroma. Zero flavor. At least zero good. sweat and alcoholic corn. Disgusting.

I drank this rather unceremoniously in a styrofoam cup in the parking lot of Wal-Mart, so I can’t tell you exactly how it poured, but from the top it looked like a slightly orange, dehydrated piss appearance. I didn’t smell anything. No hops, no malt, no skunky, nothing at all.

The taste is of extremely bland malt that tastes somewhat akin to how a Coke tastes when you leave it in the car and ice melts into it. It also had a slightly sweeter than usual aftertaste, but still nowhere near the sweetness of Icehouse.

Summary? This beer is for the birds, specifically the penguins.
