Commercial Description:
Rock Green Light, launched in 2003, is brewed with care in the same Latrobe brewery as Rolling Rock. Rock Green Light is a refreshing, well-balanced light lager with a slightly spicy aroma and crisp, clean finish. Rock Green Light (3.7% ABV) is for people who want a satisfying, great tasting beer that is low in calories (83).
Note - several ratings refer to this beer being "retired" - those ratings mistakenly rated the retired Rolling Rock Light and were moved here.

I’m not a big fan of "low carb" beers. But this is a good attempt by Latrobe. Much better than Michelob’s. Light pale yellow with a crisp malty nose. Odd taste, with an unusual balance of the malt and hops. Dry aftertaste.

Skunky green bottle aroma that is not as prevalent as its bigger brother. Clean and not a lot of beer taste, watery grainy maltiness.

If you like drinking flavored water then this is your beer. It has a paper napkin flavor that leaves you hungering for some taste on your palate. Very weak beer. There are a lot better ones out there.

This clear yellow beer poured with a large white head that dissipated quickly. There is a skunky beer aroma and virtually no taste. Enough said.

I don’t think this is the same beer I’m rating but I’ll put it here for now. My bottle is Rock Light, the label is quite different, and being a local from nearby latrobe, I understand it is a different recipe than the Rock Green Light. I hear it is actually a recipe AB used of the original Rolling Rock Light from the retired recipe files they acquired in the purchase. Anyway, Pretty 12 oz green bottle with a twist off cap. Clean yesty aroma with no hints of skunk, certainly nothing offensive on the olfactory. Nice streaming carbonation in the glass, good show in an otherwise ubiquitous pale lager. Taste is light but perhaps not as light as a light brew should be. Good appreciative bubbly carbonation. Dull non offensive lager finish. Well behaved with manners. Perhaps some shades of clean sparkling spring water in there, refreshing. An above average lager.

Pale amber color, thin fizzy head. Small malts, corn, and cardboard. Quick hoppiness in the finish. Pretty terrible.
