Yes, this is a light beer. Yes, it is, therefore, watery. But it’s a light ALE. And it’s good. Not as good as Gritty’s other beers, but well balanced and unoffensive. Almost clear straw with only a wispy thin top that does form some nice lace. Dry, lemony light caramel aroma with no hops. Crisp yet aley flavour with gentle caramel and appropriate bitterness with only detectible hops flavour. Soda watery feel, medium carbonation, clean and crisp and light bodied. BigBen2120 (554), Gardiner(52 miles from Allagash), Maine, USA Aug 28, 2006 Not a bad beer. I should mention that the waitress at Gritty’s in Auburn said that it was light in alcohol only, and tasting it, I’d have to say thats correct. Lighter flavor than some (like the Best Bitter I had before this one) but flavorful and well-balanced nonetheless. Hops dominate, but do not overpower, as there’s enough of a malt sweetness backbone to support it. Rather good, I’d definitely have this one again Dickinsonbeer (2514), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Aug 15, 2004 Tap at grittys in Portland. Light straw color with modest head. Aroma is flowery with a hint of hops. Flavor is light with some corn, toasted malts, and some hops. Smooth taste and refreshing. Pretty good for a light beer. da845 (138), annandale-on-hudson, New York, USA Apr 5, 2006 Good beer. Had on tap at Gritty’s pub. It’s refreshing and light, doesnt have a strong taste but it does have a light subtle one that makes it better than your average light beer.
