COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Italian immigrants came to Krebs to work in the coal mines that were prevalent in the area at the turn of the century. They wore a light on their hat to show the way through the mines; at the end of the day their "miners light" led the way to a nice, tall, cold beer. A traditional American style beer - dry, light bodied, yet full flavored with a touch of hop finesse, we present Miners Light beer to reflect the tradition of full flavor and sparkling golden brilliance that was so popular with the miners of early day Krebs.

troyc (2014) - Oklahoma, USA - FEB 5, 2007
(Bottle) Pours a yellow color with a small white head. Stale corn aroma, with weak mouthfeel. Overcarbonated. Not a good beer, especially for a craft beer.

travita (3050) - Frisco, Texas, USA - MAR 17, 2009
Bottle thanks to Swalden28. The look is very clear, very light yellow straw in color, and has a very small head. The smell is very light, some floral hops, and malts. The taste is blah, corn, malts, and grains.

Pigfoot (2268) - Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - JUN 28, 2006
Clear, pale yellow coloration, short-lived head is gone in a flash, nothing to report on... Aroma also is largely absent, aside from a corny, vegetal smell...not too pleasant. Taste: Innocuous. Wetness is the most solid attribute, but this possesses nothing resembling flavor. slides down the throat with the effortless of aqua, but leaves nothing tasty on the way. A glimmer of grain greets the palate at first, but it fades into oblivion. Mouthfeel: not much of any. This would work for those who find Coors Light an acme of acheivement among beers. Anyone wanting more should search in other bottles, and leave this one be.

bu11zeye (11111) - Frisco (Dallas), Texas, USA - APR 5, 2009
(12oz. bottle, courtesy of Swalden 28) Pours a hazy golden body with a small white head. Aroma of cereal, grass, and grain. Flavor of cereal and hops (light citrus, grass).

jgentgesdo (646) - Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA - JUL 18, 2006
Pours clear with thin head that quickly vanishes. Nose is faint musty cornhusks and the slightest taint of skunk. Flavor is almost absent save for continued musty grains and mild astringency. Very thin mouthfeel and no bitterness or aftertaste. Not good.

3fourths (6943) - Straßgiech, Bavaria, GERMANY - JUL 2, 2005
Same appearance as the peach beer: straw light yellow, BMC-like, and getting pretty close to crystal clear. Has pretty much no aroma or flavor for the most part, until a finish full of grainy corn and fuel on the back of the throat. The rest is flavorless and fizzy.

Ernest (5610) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - NOV 6, 2003
Draught, GABF 2003. Body is light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (grain, cereal), with a note of DMS. Flavor is lightly sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly bitter, unclean. Light body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation. Striving for greatness this is not.
