COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Is a lighter version of our Original Lager, with one-third fewer calories and a crisp, clean, distinctive flavor.

Ughsmash (5631) - Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA - AUG 7, 2005
Poured a clear golden yellow with a two-finger layer of white head. Very little going on with the aroma and flavor, as expected. Picked up a bit of hops (moreso in the aroma), and the flavor also had a little malty sweetness. Extremely light and water-like in mouthfeel, and there wasn’t anything that lingered for a finish. Non-offensive and very easy-drinking, however.

Light golden color with bubbly white head. Light aroma of pale malt and somewhat grassy hops. Light and quite crisp. Drinkable.

UPDATED: JUL 23, 2005 This is an ok light version of regular Liene’s. Has that slight interesting flavor of hops from the original. A light caramel and some old vegatables in the aroma and taste. A good light.

Skyview (4739) - Papoose Jct, Minnesota, USA - JUL 11, 2007
Sampled at the Leinie’s Lodge in Chippewa Falls, WI. Pours a clear, light pale blonde brew with lots of carbonation bubbles, and a fast dissolving white head. No lacing after the dissolve. Aroma is multi-grain malt, grassy hops, and a slight lemon zest. Taste is very light bodied, some corn malt and a slight metalic at the back of the tongue. Finish is watery, clean, crisp and no aftertaste. Not bad to a low-calorie, low-carb, light beer.

badgerben (4092) - Blaine, Minnesota, USA - JUN 19, 2004
Pours a bright golden color with a little bit of white head. Kind of a musty malt aroma and taste with just a bit of hops. Well, I won’t kill myself for drinking it, but I certainly won’t hunt another down.

Snagged a bottle of this in Milwaukee a couple of years ago. Not bad for a light beer, but nothing special.

"The Pride of Chippewa Falls" the bottle says. Yes, I assure you. The aroma was of corn and other, perhaps less reputable, cereal grains. There was also quite a bit of hay in the nose. Poured a clear pale yellow color with a fluffy white head that retained its height fairly well. Light bodied and delicately sweet. Tasted pretty much the same as it smelled with the addition of a hint of apple. Blah.

On tap at the brewery. Nothing great here, but a substantial step above bud or miller lite.
