Tmoney99 (6892) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAR 26, 2007
Bottle from Party Source. Poured pale color with an average frothy white head that diminished quickly with fair lacing. Moderate grassy aroma. Light to medium body with a thin texture and soft carbonation. Light sweet flavor with soft bitter short finish. Worth trying once.

This is a "NO." DAB makes good brews. Why get into this low-carb BS? It’s actually better than most of these current, non-sensical lagers... but who wants to be the best of the worst? Drink real beer, instead.

Ernest (5113) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - APR 13, 2004
Head is initially average sized, frothy, white, fully diminishing. Body is clear medium yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (grain), lightly hoppy (herbs, flowers), hints of metal and DMS. Flavor is lightly sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is moderately bitter. Light body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation, slightly metallic.

JPDIPSO (4957) - Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA - JAN 15, 2004
Very pale straw color with a white wispy big bubbled head. Light grass and malt aromas. Some lace. Initial dry malt flavors, followed by a Light bitterness and touch of kraft paper. I've had one other low carb brew and this one blows that "Green 33" out of the water or lauter tun. This would be a very good hot day quencher. At least as far a low cal., low carbs go. A touch fizzy and seems to loss flavor as it goes.

Medium white head on top of a pale yellow hued body. You get a slightly sopay aroma and some dirt. The taste is mild and inoffensive. About what you woudl expect.

Braudog (4473) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - SEP 4, 2004
This is crystal clear and pale yellow with a thin foamy white head. Sweet malty aroma. The flavor is musty, sweet and grainy. For the weak look, this actually surprises with almost some flavor. Hate this new "low carb" kick, though.

thedm (4116) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - JAN 2, 2005
This bottled brew poured a medium sized head of foamy finely sized mostly diminishing white colored bubbles that left behind an unnoted lacing. The body contained average carbonation, was transparent and light orange in color. Its aroma contained notes of mild malty hoppy astringent . Its mouth feel is initially tingly bubbly with a lingering tingly palate. Its flavor contained mild malty hoppy notes and was good but too bubbly.

YAY! I got a low carb! Not my first but I think my first European Low Carb. What a shame they are going along with this shit! Pours yellow but it’s so faint it’s lamost clear. No head on this for some reason. Aroma is odd it’s sweet and candy-ish. Almost a peppermint aroma! This makes up for how bad the taste is going to be. Or is it.... The taste is sort of grainy and wheat-ish with a faint hop backbone. Not nearly as bad as I expected it to be. The palate is about as thin as it could be, save the carbonation. Beer flavored seltzer water??? Finish semi-bland. There’s some beer like hints to it but overall it’s pretty palin. That said, it’s better than Michelob Ultra and the Rolling Rock low carb stuff. Not sure about Aspen Edge, but I can’t imagine that being much better than this.
