(bottle - 12 oz) Clear golden color with a fizzy white head and mild carbonation. Aroma is full of corn and dry grass. Has the same bitter, skunked aroma of Heineken, but milder. Flavor is much milder than Heineken. Light and dry grass at the beginning with a very mild hop middle. Finish has a light sweet hint and a mild corn note. Thin and watery.

Bottle; pale yellow, clear, with almost no head; aroma-hay, grass; taste-No sweetness, no bitterness, light body, thin feel, fizzy, not good.

Decent head and carbonation in the appearance. Mild yellow coloring. Aroma is of hay and strong skunk. Surprised at the skunkiness in a "light" beer. Taste is better than I expected, I think I like this more than the regular. It’s smooth.. a bit of a metallic taste.. which I can seemingly now sense in the aroma also.

12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a clear pale yellow with minimal head. Aroma of hay and skunk. Taste is about the same. Light bodied with a thin texture. Fizzy carbonation and not much of a finish. Overall, pretty crappy. Not something I would choose to drink.

Watered down premium. Better off with a coors light at this point you r only wasting money.

So very little taste and so very little aroma. It wasn’t until it warmed a bit that I started picking up any flavor. This is not acceptable to me. Thanks to Sean. Serving: Bottle

Pours pale yellow with a lot of carbonation and a big head that settles quickly. Not much aroma and the taste is also very light. Not a bad light beer is that is what you are looking for.

Bottle. Watery appearance. Aroma is a bit skunky, as well as the taste. I would rather have a Miller Lite. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Very pale yellow. Minimal to no aroma. Faint taste of malts followed by minimal hoppy finish. Ok drinkability if you have to drink a light beer.

The better half’s favorite beer. 12 oz bottle. Pours straw with surprising amount of head. I’ve never seen it out of a bottle before. Nose is mild skunk. Taste is literally water with a pinch of hops thrown in. Tastes kinda like ginger ale. Mildly lingering finish. Some famous comedy show: "Don’t even get me started..."

330ml bottle. This is a very clear amber coloured beer with a minimalistic white head that stays for a while and disappears. Smells like normal Heinekin, no surprise there. Very horrid flavour that puckers the mouth.
