GABF '03 Pretty sad when your light version of the original has more body and flavor than it's big brother.

12oz can poured into a shaker. Pretty much the exact same are regular Old Style, except this one is a bit more watered down. Nothing really that special but I would take this over pretty much any other "lite" beer out there.

Not a fan, this beer isn’t even worthy of drinking when out at the ball park. If you have to choose between this beer and a clean looking rain puddle, go with the puddle....

Enjoyed while watching the Cubs play the Brewers at Wrigley Field in Chicago, IL. This one was much lighter than the Budweiser I enjoyed earlier, definitely more watered down. Not bad?

Not that much different from regular Old Style, although more watery in every way.

16oz can at the Cubs game...Super light clear and fizzy, very carbonated...Light aroma of skunk and hops...The taste is also very light, a light skunky finish but overall very plain, you can’t taste anything...The feel is super light, easy enough to drink, but not something I would go after.

This was one of my "get drunk" beers when I thought that I liked beer, but didn’t know enough to appreciate really good and great beer. Pale yellow, little head, taste of stale grain and tiny, tiny, tiny stale hop bitterness. Better than dog piss or tainted water I guess.

The official beer of the Chicago Cubs. Pours a clear yellow with little to no head. Tastes of water, grain, water, bread and water.

Yellow pour with a white head. Flavor of pale malts and corn. Grassy flavor. Easy to drink at the Cubs game.

Can poured a clear yellow with a lingering ring of white foam. Aromas of white bread and a hint of spice. Palate was light bodied and crisp with a watery finish. Flavors of white bread and light straw with a crisp clean watery finish.
