| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 16, 2009 From bottle to shaker Aug 13, 2009. Pours a light clear amber with minimal head, diminishing. Well, let’s just say it is what it is: a very light beer with a bit more pizzaz and flavor than regular ultra. A clear choice over its bland sister if these are the only two you have to choose from. Other than that - well I just would not purchase. superdude1979 (61), Phoenix, Arizona, USA
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 1/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Aug 13, 2009 Pretty bland beer. Nothing real special here. If you are into a healthy lifestyle, yet you cannot sacrafice beer than I guess this is the swill for you. You need a reason to drink this beer, mine was it was on sale. Seriously, this beer give you a tiny nit of flavour at the start and dies, no aftertaste or anything. But hey did I mention it is good for those with an active lifestyle who still want to consume beer? rlaw (46), USA
| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/20 | Aug 11, 2009 Bottle. Best thing about this beer is the color: a nice amber. Very little head. Not much aroma: a little malt, some fake sweetness. That’s pretty much the flavor too. It kinda, sorta tastes malty, but also a bit metallic and skunky. At least the mild skunkiness adds some flavor. Can’t say I’m disappointed since my expectations very virtually nil. Refreshing, I suppose, but not very satisfying. Barrios (858), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Aug 9, 2009 Pours an off-white head that fades quickly to nothing with a clear, copper colored body. Smells floral like apples. Flavor has a sort of dark characteristic, like almost roasted. Thin. ben4321 (994), Rockville, Maryland, USA

If I need a beer to drink during a Marathon (that’s Ultra’s selling point right?) I guess this would be the one... Onslow (174), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 20, 2009 I would never have tried this if it wasn’t for Ratebeer - but I wanted a brew I hadn’t evaluated before and at the local gas station / C-Store this was about it.
I’m pleasantly surprised ... Light amber beer with a thin and fizzy head, aroma of malt (yes - malt) and faint hops. Slightly malty flavor at the start with a mild touch of hops in the finish. For the genre, it’s very good. Extra point for the respectable ABV level, something missing from most light brews. (Of course, I only drink beer for the taste and flavor.) Gosh - maybe I should try the raspberry pomegranate tutee fruity Ultra next... bonr (1), Florida, USA does not count | 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 5/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/20 | May 23, 2009 If you have to drink a lite beer, this one almost feels like a real beer. Taste isn’t bad, kick is strong!
