1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 GMUcrew7 (572) - Mason, Ohio, USA - JUN 24, 2009
Re-realeased through Hudepohl-Schoenling. Pours extremely light yellow color with a big white head. Sweet malt aroma, not a whole lot else. Really nothing special, a blind tasting may be in store.

This beer is more classical than it is good. Very cheap on the counter. We used it to batter chicken at a restaurant I used to work at.

UPDATED: MAR 31, 2005 The name has got to go. If you get these ice cold, they’re actually pretty good. I like Hamm’s special light a lot more.

Haha, I got this for 4 dollars a case. no reason not to buy one. Pretty gross, but it kept me buzzed. Tastes kinda skunky, kinda fizzy. Carbonation tickles my tongue a bit. cant beat that price!

Overall it's not a bad beer. It's good on a hot day when the beer is cold. Still, better than Bud Light, Miller, or Coors.

I havent seen this one around in a while. It was decent when I did see it. Again, not for the faint of heart, if you are looking for weak watery lights, stay off of this one.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 7/20 garrison (717) - Cin. city, Ohio, USA - AUG 6, 2003
UPDATED: AUG 18, 2003 Okay, this is nowhere near as good as Burger Classic, but it really isn't an unpleasant beer. However, since it is American Light style, I'd more aptly term it "beer flavored soda water".

Certainly a fine alternative to Bud Light or Miller Lite. Clean, refreshing, and easy to drink. This one even has flavor! All in all, a perfect beverage for mass consumption. Remember, consumption = festivity. Burger Light is a rare opportunity to combine mass consumption with non-disgusting flavor. In terms of this style (which is depauperate and wanting), Burger Light is a cut above.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 humulus (339) - Salem, Missouri, USA - MAR 13, 2003
UPDATED: MAR 14, 2003 I am rating this in terms of style and thus in comparison with other american lights, not in comparison with stronger, more flavorful beers. This being so, I find Burger Light to be an exceptional brew. Crisp clean palate, smooth refreshing flavor, great head (which is always nice), and without the sticky aftertaste that you might find in bud, busch and miller products. Only rated in the mid 20th percentile, but if you look at the rates for this style, it ranks as number one (i.e. the best American Light). It is certainly worthy of this distintion. Five dollars a 12pack makes it all the more loveable.
