DrSamPHD (60), Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA Oct 1, 2008 Ahh, my second rating on this site and i must say i am NOT surprised to see this gem on the "worst beers" list. Although i can not criticize it so harshly, for this is the first beer i can remember consuming in a large amount. Oh sweet Natty Light, you got me through high school, to bad you taste like water and leave me with the worst of hang overs. This is my salute to you, natty light! unclemattie (2370), Georgia, USA Sep 15, 2008 The 900th Natty Rating and my 100th Pale Lager Rating!;!;!; 12oz can. Pours clear, bright yellow. Creamy white head. Sweet aroma of buttery grits. Flavor for the most part does not exist. The only thing there is a distant sweetness of diluted corn syrup. Very light and extremely watered down. Anyone who buys a 12pk of this on a regular basis has absolutely no character, just like this beer. heavy (815), Split, Croatia Sep 11, 2008 0.375 l (12 fl. oz) can, brought by our guests. So it became my first US beer...on 9/11. Cute. It poured pale yellow body with medium white head. Very weak industrial malty and some sourish aroma. Slightly unpleasant but very unimpressive. Flavor is strange indeed, I felt really nothing at first glance, but later it came to some not so nice floral sweetness and some strange, even interesting sourness. Really very light bodied. No finish except some bad aftertaste that ruins the beer even more. So...natural - nooo way (no hops and some artificial malt), light - yes, sure. I realized now when entering my rate this is one of the most hated US lagers, well, I’ve surely had even worse, this is just too watery and not so unpleasant. bsm80 (144), Massapequa, New York, USA Sep 6, 2008 This beer is disgusting, another "gem" from AB. I just don’t know why people keep buying this crap, all of their beer is awful. arventresca (334), Greenville, North Carolina, USA Sep 6, 2008 What can you say. A cheaper version of its brother Bud Light. Another macro brew cheaply made and sold soley to get ripped on. Not a beer drinkers beer. NyBob85 (8), Flushing, New York, USA does not count Sep 1, 2008 Absolutely horrendous. There are very few beers I flat-out refuse to drink but Natural Light is one of them.
Back in my college days I had the misfortune of buying a thirty pack of this stuff at Wal Mart. I had heard the horror stories about it and had been given ample warning but figured it couldn’t be that bad. I often pride myself on being the guy who will drink the swill nobody else wants and have been up and down the list of awful beers - Keystone Light, Milwaukee’s Best, Schlitz, etc - All rough but all bearable. How bad could Natty Light really be? Plus it was only $12.99 for thirty so at the time it appeared to be a great deal.
Upon arriving back home with it I realized this was no deal. The first sip was awful and it only got worse from there. I managed to force down two cans before giving the rest away to my roommate. Positively horrific. I would honestly rather drink water at a party and stay sober all night long than be subjected to drinking Natural Light again. TheGuzzler (1), Victorville, California, USA does not count Aug 28, 2008 This stuff is gross. I was introduced to it this past summer. I had to drink it cause thats all we could afford. Guarenteed not to buy this out of my own will. adavis234 (133), Columbia, South Carolina, USA Aug 23, 2008 Just try to ignore the aroma, appearance, flavor and palate and drink it down quickly.
