Commercial Description:
This low gravity (10.5 B starting, 1.7 B end) beer is made with two row pilsen malt, a touch of wheat malt, and only Lublin to hop the kettle, which is the nobel Saaz hop.

Very pale yellow. Spritzy and light. Very bland. I'm assuming that this is the same as what is now called the C126 Light.

Actually looks like a beer! But that is where it ends. Faint hoppy notes. Watery. I guess I just don’t like light beers, but this is better than most. It actually tastes close to a very watery (note repetition) pilsener. All the good ingredients are not completely overshadowed by the attempt at "light".

Assume this is what the breweryy now calls ’Fordham Light.’ Slightly skunky, but otherwise mostly blandly inoffensive. Attention drinkers of light beer: either diet or drink real beer -- don’t try to do both at the same time.
