COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Natural Light is brewed with a blend of premium American and imported hops, and a combination of malt and corn. Its longer brewing process produces a lighter body, fewer calories and an easy-drinking character.

Wonderfully blended, balanced and brewed for a consistently clean flavor, light body and satisfying refreshment.

Natural Light was Anheuser-Busch’s first reduced-calorie light beer.

Update: I had to bump this beer up a little after I realized that I can actually drink this due to its lack of taste and watery nature and I can’t drink a couple of other beers that were rated higher. Natural Light, aka Nasty Light, aka Natty Light, is a very popular beer in Jeff Davis county, Georgia. How do I know this? I worked at the Food Lion there in high school and you spend all Friday and Saturday nights restocking the stuff. Why is it so popular? Because people are poor ther and it’s the cheapest beer that Food Lion sold. It gets a one for taste because it has no taste. The only reason I gave it a 5 on Overall Impression is because it’s eery similarity to water makes it an easy-drinking gettin’ drunk beer. I’d buy this over Budweiser even though Bud’s a slightly better beer.

Drank this one after a skunky beer. Could find no aroma to speak of. Body was gold in color and had a water downed taste. Wouldn’t be my choice for frige fill.

This beer is not good. It tastes of cardboard, dirty tap water, and stale alcohol. It smells even worse.

It appears I can not rate this a "0"...and that angers me. This is by far the nastiest beer one can have. Yes it’s carbonated and I think there may be a pellet or 2 of some 10 year old hops. I believe this beer gives beer a bad rap....It stinks, it’s cheap, and trailer park trash barely prefer this. It’s asham it is even made, but hey, it helps Aneuser-Bush get the poor man’s money. This is very sad.

Smells like wet paper and burlap, yellow color, foamy white head. No taste. This beer has no taste. That’s a neat trick - yellow water. Someone forgot to add the ingredients.

16 oz can at the pre-vacation chill and swill - straight oiut of the tall boy can why not. Aroma and flavor very similar. Alcohol, corn, rice, a bit of malt and a fine metallic aftertaste. The ice version was better simply because it had some taste.

UPDATED: JUL 17, 2010 This is a great light beer only when taking into consideration its price (10$ a case). It doesnt have much taste but it is very easy to drink. Basically like getting drunk off water. Easy to chug. You could probably piss this out and it would taste similar.

SamGamgee (2451) - down the whirlpool, California, USA - JAN 7, 2008
UPDATED: FEB 11, 2010 Slightly sour, carbonated water. There is the faintest hint of some malt, but it slips over your tongue all to quickly on the way down. I’ve had this far to many times on tap and out of a can, and I had my first can last night since returning to the states. By far more watery than any beer that I had in Europe. Nothing remotely pleasing about drinking it, except the buzz factor. But then tequila works for that too. In comparison to bud light, it’s closest relative, (or is that busch light? they dont sell that here) It lacks the green apple aroma and flavor and has slightly less grain character and sweetness. More acidity (carbonic?) as well. Very harshly carbonated and utterly thin in the mouth. The appearance is a weird funky pale brown-yellow with a dying white head. I dont even know if you could say that it has any aroma besides some metal. This used to be the cheapest 30-pack in IV, but has recently been usurped by LaCrosse Light. What a shame. Though it still kicks Lacrosse’s ass in that it is consistent from can to can. Thats the one thing that you can count on in an Anheuser-Busch product.
