COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Edison Light is brewed with only water, hops, yeast and 100% malted barley--no adjuncts, enzymes or dextrose found in other light beers. Edison Light has a fresh hop aroma and unexpected flavor derived from a proprietary (patented formula) along with undertones of spicy floral and citrus notes.

clear gold and medium white head watery and fizzy has a lemony grainy aroma tastes lightly of malt vanilla and lemons with a little hay, its a light beer so you cant expect too much not bad for a light though, clever name and bottle

SDbruboy (1857) - San Diego, California, USA - MAR 27, 2007
12 oz bottle from Trader Joe’s. Bought this as a single, just for the rating. Pours clear yellow with a moderate fizzy head. Aroma is malty-grainy with a hint of soap and lemon grass. Flavor is of mildly sweet malts, again a little ivory soap and gently tart, bitterness in the finish - not bad, just not much flavor. Crisp carbonation and light watery body. This would be a servicable yard work swillin’ beer or perhaps a slug bait.

Saarlander (1664) - Saarlouis/ Rancho Cucamonga,CA, GERMANY - MAR 20, 2007
Very watery brew, almost like a perrier. No real bad flavors with it, but very plain, quite a spritzy carbonation to it,Eh.

Bottle from Trader Joe’s. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Very sweet grainy/creamy aroma. Very light grainy flavor. Somewhat sweet. Fairly bland.

TheOrange (467) - Kent, Ohio, USA - FEB 13, 2007
Pale yellow pour, with a small white head. The aroma was a bit on the *skunky* side. Very thin, little to nobody. I had hoped this would be a fit more flavorful... Instead it was very boring and watery. Oh well.

beerbomb (173) - New Jersey, USA - JAN 30, 2007
Faint aroma of hay, corn, and corn syrup. Flavor is light, corny and bready and watery . Palate is...clean. Nothing offensive and refreshing-not bad, for a light beer-cool name and label too.

Tasted like water, actually lighter than a corona. A bad bear but a refreshing drink, it tastes like it has about 1% abv. Has very little head.

VVilliam (50) - USA - DEC 9, 2006
Bottled. Poured a pale white/yellow with a medium white head. Had a very sharp smell of hops and lemon/citrus. Very little taste, with a hint of lemon. Starts with a sharp carbonated bite, but goes down extremely smooth. Overall it was like drinking lemon seltzer water, a pretty good drink, but definitely not beer.
