I was actually slightly surprised after sampling the other Berger’s brews. This is not bad at all. In fact I would probably buy it again if it was more reasonably priced. This is what all light beers should be at the least.

Had this beer on 8/1/2002. Color is a bright gold with good carbonation and nice head. Aroma is a light sweet malt scent. Taste is sweet and bitter. Starting with a light/medium body it goes down with a slightly rich feel and sweet flavor. It finished with an overly sweet malt flavor that is backed by a sudden bitterness. Its flavor is too heavy and rich for a summer brew.

Slightly hazy golden yellow with a medium diminishing white head. Some floaties are present. Aroma of light bread, cereal, honey, creamed corn and a hint of lemon. Medium watery body with soft carbonation. Slightly musty flavor of honey, light bread, pepper, and adjunct related sweetness. Not good, not bad, I can see why it is now retired. Thanks to slikwily for this one!

A very, very, very small white head with fine sized bubbles that quickly diminished. The body was mostly transparent with soft carbonation and a pale yellow hue. The nose was lightly malty, sweet, citrus notes and fruity. The flavor was very flat, bland and boring with a sweet and light fruitiness. The mouthfeel was smooth, watery and thin making for a light textured beer with very sparse lacing. Not a beer that I will recommend.
