It’s a no-brainer as to why the store was selling this for only $2.99. Think cheap malt, corn syrup, and rusty tin cans, and you’ll have a pretty good handle on what you’re smelling and tasting here. The clear pale yellow body with it’s active carbonation and respectable head are the lager’s only redeeming factors.

Straw color with a tall foamy white head. Grass and grain aroma with a hint of perfume. One sip reveals a plethora of flavors, with not many of them being associated with beer. Cardboard, paper, oatmeal, resin and bitter caffeinated water. Stop the insanity. Smells worse as it warms.

Head is initially small, fizzy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is clear light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (cereal, grain), trace hops (herbs), with a note of DMS. Flavor is lightly sweet, lightly acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly bitter, lightly acidic. Light body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation. Even fewer carbs than Michelob Ultra, and almost as repulsive.

2004 bottle. Nose is flowery, light sugars, spring water...... Roman baths..... Color is remarkably clear, with a slight hint of light, light, light peach. Small head, rapidly dissipating. True to style, it’s got that weird, low-carb sugar flavor to it, what is that flavor??? Highly filtered, there’s not much to this, but perhaps some yeast, or maybe I’m imagining that? Very simple but inoffensive, to me...... Extra-light bodied.......... good water substitute. . .

Another dismal entry in the lo-carb beer wars. Saying it's better than the Aspen Edge lo-carb brew I just had is faint praise indeed. Let's just say there is a faint essence of barley here that serves to remind you that you're drinking beer, as opposed to seltzer water. The color is a solid, beery gold, which suggests some sort of coloring additive. Watery, watery. Not as good as Rolling Rock Green Light or Michelob Ultra.
