suprchunk (792) - Heinsberg, GERMANY - FEB 9, 2012
Straw colored pour. Barely-there white head. No lacing. Smells of malt, slight caramel. Tastes of malt. Sweet with a slight bitterness from all the carbon dioxide pumped into it. Decent, but not the best bottom fermented beverage out there.

Chudwick (345) - Taylor Mill (KY), FRANCE - FEB 2, 2012
35cl bottle - pours pale gold with thin white head. Nose is slightly hoppy and corn. Taste is bitter all around but on the light side. True to the style but inherently boring. That is all.

This beer is very smooth, yet a nice alcohol content. It’s also very refreshing during the summer.

BillWyce (296) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 15, 2012
From notes: Pours clear straw color with a small, white head. Aroma was light...lemony and somewhat yeasty. Smooth, medium-thickness, but a bit light. Flavor was yeasty, with a touch of lemon in the finish. Perhaps a touch of black pepper as well.

decaturstevo (3386) - decatur, Tennessee, USA - JAN 15, 2012
Gold pour with watery white head. Light sour corn aroma with a hinto malt. Lightly sweetened corn with a pretty decent bitter. Thin watery and foamy. Not much but drinkable in a pinch.

SDalkoholic (1486) - Chula Vista, California, USA - JAN 5, 2012
Bottle from Keg N Bottle #2: Poured a crystal clear golden blonde color with a small tiny head that quickly fizzed out. In the nose, a mild yet faint aroma of grain and malt, but they are at a minimal amount. The flavor is bland and has traces of corn and rice with a touch of malt liquor type of malts. Is this a light beer?

astrofrk (308) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - JAN 4, 2012
Found at Krogers Light golden. Small head. Aroma: Light malt grains. Flavor: Grains, lemon, cardboard, somewhat sweet. Light finish. I just had some decent beers and this was an insult to my taste buds. I thought I would get a good Blonde Ale and instead I get a sorry excuse for a Pilsner. I know I can do worse than this but Texas can do better.

jcos (568) - Maryland, USA - JAN 2, 2012
Location/Date:Bottle on December 31st, 2011.

Appearance: Pours a clear yellow.
Aroma: Aroma is of light malt.
Taste: Some faint hop, malt, a little too sweet.
Palate:Medium light body.

Summary: Last rating of 2011! This beer is barely better than average BLS. Not my thing.
