COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Shiner Light is a full-flavored, deep amber light beer. Our brewmaster blends choice Munich malt and select hops with pure artesian water to create a beer thats lower in calories but full of the rich flavor you expect from shiner beers.

As expected it pour pale yellow with a medium white head. Not bad on the palate, no aftertaste, and goes down smooth enough. Definately better than most light beers I’ve tried.

Barreras (368) - Diamond Bar, California, USA - AUG 13, 2009
Pours an apple juice in color, very carbonated. Non distinct in flavor, a little bit more flavorful than normal light beers. Another decent beer from Shiner.

Pershing (272) - Garland, Texas, USA - AUG 5, 2009
UPDATED: APR 12, 2010 If your i to light beer, this is the one. Light clear amber with a slight grainy taste. The head completely disappears after about 2 minutes. Small amount of carbonation, just enough to see tiny bubbles. Clean somewhat dry finish.

12oz bottle into a pint glass. It is what it is - a light beer made by Shiner that is easy to drink, not terrible, but nothing special.

Ice cold went down smooth, some grain, some corn, some water, and surprisingly some flavor for a light beer.

Tmoney99 (6892) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JUL 9, 2009
Bottle from package store when I was riding thru Nashville. Poured a straw color with an average frothy white head that diminished slowly and produced fair lacing. Light sweet malt and grainy aroma. Light body with with a thin texture and lively carbonation. Light sweet smooth flavor with a light sweet finish of short duration. Cold wet alcohol with a little character.

fidelis83 (1261) - Clinton, Iowa, USA - JUN 26, 2009
Pours gold with a 2-3 finger chunky white head that has poor retention. Aroma is lots of corn, sweet malt, tin and toasty malt. Flavor is sweet malt, a little grain, corn and some cardboard. Palate is thin, dry and fizzy. Really no better than most of the macro pale lagers, not sure why it scores so much higher...

Light fizzy yellow-orange with a long off white foam. Aroma is corn, metal, very thin. Taste is watery, slightly metallic, corn cereal.
