We had a couple bottles left over from a Memorial Day cookout and I gave one a try. It poured a clear light yellow color with about a 1" white head. There were some carbonation bubbles rising in the glass. Surprisingly there was a decent piney hop aroma to the beer. The appearance was ok and the aroma was not bad, but that’s where the good parts of the beer ended. The initial taste was cold and refreshing with a little bit of crispness mostly from the carbonation. That lasted a good second or two and not much else. Why do people buy this stuff

Okay, I am not a fan of light beer, but still nothing to write home about. Very little body, taste or character to it.

Bottle: poured a clear golden yellow with a white head. The aroma was some (very little) malt. The flavor was...almost there. This was a better ’light’ beer than most I’ve had...not by much though.

Bottle. Pours yellow gold with a white head. Very bland in both aroma and flavor, with sweet grainy notes and straw. Mostly inoffensive and drinkable.

12 oz bottle-pours a dissipating white head and pale yellow color. Aroma is corn, grain. Taste is corn, grain, some continental hops. Decent lawnmower beer.
