Aroma is - well, it’s weak but at least it’s malty and not watery. Not at all impressive. It pours a wan clear straw yellow with a fairly thick white head that fizzles out quickly. Flavor is actually better than I expected - unlike most light beers I have tried, it really does taste like beer. It’s malty, and that’s about it - although it doesn’t seem watery. Body and fizz both leave something to be desired. Good only when compared to other light beers - otherwise fuhgeddaboudit.

Sampled from a 12 oz green bottle this beer poured a pale yellow color with a medium sized foamy yellow-white head that faded quickly and left no lacing. The aroma was tangy, a bit skunky and corny. The flavor was tangy, bitter and sour with notes of corn and skunk and a disgusting off perfumey/windexy undertone. Long disgusting off finish. Light body. Disgusting.

Multiple tastings. Getting caught up on life beer list. Remember this one from many years ago. Nothing worthwhile here, amazing that they have brought it back. This name is an oxymoron if ever there was one.

Pours pale yellow with a white head. Aroma is sweet and grainy. Flavor is corn, veggies, and a little grain.

The aroma is a typical adjunct light lager with a touch of hops. The appearance is pale gold with a medium head that fades to nothing. The taste is like the aroma, refreshing and none offensive but low quality. The palate is average for the style. Overall a watery affair that is refreshing without character.

Had this awhile back. Remember this...no not really. Just a poor pale lager with no real redeeming qualities, but the green bottle gives it some funk.

12 ounce bottle. Found a single bottle (green, of course) of this at a local store, so I figured I might as well try it. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a clear light gold color with about a half inch white head that went away pretty quickly. Not much lacing, either. Aroma is light grain/adjuncts, sweet malt and not much else. For the style of beer this is, the aroma isn’t too bad as there aren’t any offensive aromas. Taste is sweet malt, and some adjuncts/grain. Like the aroma, for the type of beer it is it doesn’t taste too bad. Mouthfeel is light, with decent carbonation. Drinkability is decent, it’s really not hard to drink at all. I wouldn’t turn one down if someone gave me a bottle (not that I would look for this again). I’ve drank worse brews, that’s for sure.

This is a sad "beer". I do not like the watery original and this one if even more so.

Green 12oz twist-off bottle. Clear yellow, white fizzy head. Aroma of light Pale Lager. Corn and straw. Light pale malt, and flavor of fizzy malted water. Very light. Very tasteless. Oh well, one more AB rating.

Bottle, clear yellow with some white foam, aroma and flavor are sweet fruit and corn, finish is thin
