Can. Slightly sour, stale corn/barley malt aroma. Pale yellow color with small head. Light slightly sweet barley malt flavor. Palate mainly water - just a hint of malt in the finish. On the positive side, no bad flavors. On the negative side, very little flavor at all. Almost worth the $2.95 I paid for the sixer.

Hamm’s Light? I thought regular Hamm’s was light enough. It pours a clear yellow, slightly white head with a lot of carbonation. Head is absent even at 40 degrees. Watery grainy and grassy aroma. Hardly any taste. Maybe some cereal grain and metalic metal. I good lawn mower beer at 35 degrees.

To say this was a light yellow color would be a vast understatement. Pretty thick head. Aroma was slightly skunky grains. The taste was mellow to say the least. Very subdued silo flavor. Muddled corn and barley. There are certainly more swillish beers than this, but it’s not great.

One of the better light beers, but still incredibly poor. IT is light, golden, fizzy, not good.

There is not a dark thing wrong with this beer if you are looking for a cheap drunk. Just throw it in the freezer and throw em back.

Tailgating 2004: Swill Beer #1. Tailgating season is once again upon us. We’re not allowed to bring bottles of beer to the tailgating festivities, so instead of killing ourselves trying to find good beer in cans, we make delicious homebrew to bring in a Party Pig, and accompany it with the worst canned beers available. This year’s first choice: Hamm’s Special Light.
Pours a light yellow, slightly golden hue with a loud fizz. Head roars to life like a can of soda, and quickly drops to nothingness just as fast. Small streams of bubbles continuously run along the side of the glass. Sour grainy and grassy aroma, like walking through a field of straw that is overdue for harvest after a rainstorm while getting slight whiffs of pig urine from the farm next door. Very light flavor of maize and grains along with a definite hint of metal (copper?). Sour finish full of rice and corn husks. Decent mouthfeel, though: not thin, and decently carbonated. I feel like I’m back working on a farm when I drink this.
