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.

I could not detect any difference between this and the non-light version. Just as bad. I guess it has less alcohol, but it not clear if this is a blessing or a curse. Avoid this at all costs. Here is a case where the minimum rating is not low enough.

Pours pale yellow with white head, aroma of some corn, dishwater, water. Taste is very watery, hint of dish soap, chemicals, and maybe a little corn. No thanks.

"Tastes great, less filling" pivo repeated that like 20 times while pouring the beer, so I was annoyed before I even tried it :-) Straw yellow color, wet cardboard and also artificial but weak nose. Yuckie artificial parfume light sweet taste with a cardboard finish.

Hmmm...well it’s pretty much like drinking water. No aroma, not much flavor (mostly corn), watery and it looks like I took a piss in my glass.

Pale clear yellow, lots of bubbles, but no head. Malts are thinner than iced tea and corn sweet. Annoyingly over carbonated like seltzer. Corn/cooked vegetables become evident as it warms. Should've avoided this, but I was curious. I did penence with a pint of Arrogant Bastard to help cleanse my soul.

Aroma is rather strong and unappealing compared to most lagers. Appearance is a bit darker than most light lagers. Flavor has a hint of alcohol but not anything better to negate it. Palate is at least thicker than most marketed light lagers. Overall is 5/20 because of price efficiency
