Miller Lite Amber Beer

Bottle. Remarkably aromatic for a light beer. Moderately sweet with roasted malt notes. Ales, be they amber or otherwise are typically hazy in appearance. This brew is so crystal clear that I can see my finger prints on the other side of the glass. Not much head or lace. Very initial mouthfeel is of roasted malt, followed quickly by a hint of metalic. For folks who like dry, malty beers without any hop bite, this beer is a nice low cal alternative without constantly reminding you that it’s low cal. I’ve had average ESBs that aren’t much different than this brew and probably had 40% more calories. Miller says this brew is designed to compete with Fat Tire. I don’t drink enough Fat Tire to comment all that intelligently about that, although my recollection of Fat Tire is that it had a little more of a hop presence, but perhaps not all that much more flavor. Probably more of a competitor for Sam Adams Light without the cache, and I’m guessing with a lower price point. Not a bad light beer at all.

Sampled via 12-oz bottle at Cellars Wine & Spirits in St Paul, MN. Pours a clear light copper amber brew with a fast dissolving white head that dissipates nearly clean with a thin film top. Aroma of light multi-grain malt, some corn adjunct, and a light citrus zest. Taste is light bodied, with some carbonation, a thin multi-grain biscuit flavor with some kumquat zest and floral hop character. Finish has a light malty grain flavor, quite watery that changes to a clean cut aftertaste with no bitterness. The best way to describe this is not much different than regular Miller Lite (diet) beer with some amber color added.

I thought this was going to not be a good beer, but I gave it a shot and what good try by miller. I thought for it being a lite beer and made for the main stream they did a great job. I would not buy it again, but if someone wanted to start trying out different beers this would be cool for them to give shot

Light copper in color with a nice head that quickly dissipates. corn nose. Flavor is very similar to miller lite with a very slight hint of malt. side by side they are not that dissimilar. It almost has a "heavy" miller lite feel to it. overall not bad.

Bottle from Albertsons. Light amber colored. Slightly sweet acidic aroma with maybe a hint of malt. Bready flavors with a some tart kind of thing going on. A little caramelization for good measure as well.

Considering what it is and what it is attempting, it is not bad. Kind of reminds me of a hoppier Molson Canadian. For a "light beer" not bad.

Amber color with no head. Aroma of corn and very dry chocolate. It actually smelled pretty good, but... it tastes like a bucket of rainwater with a half pound of grain and corn left in it for a hot August weekend.

Pours a light clear, fiery orangish hue. Nose is very grainy and a little metallic with a hint of citrus. Very biscuity doughy malt profile with a hint of floral hops, but the metallic kinda piney hops really throw it off. Of the three this is the only offensive one as far as I’m concerned.
