Not a big fan of light beers. Watery taste, but that is what you would expect, a watered down light beer version of the real thing. Who wants a light anw?

Bottle in South Africa. Poured with very good head which dissipated fairly slowly. A very slight aroma of grains. The taste was very minimal but not unpleasant and no aftertaste to speak of. A good low alcohol beer on a very hot day.

Hm, at least it’s pure beer and can be used as a tonic to aid the heart. Pours with a nice, foamy, frothy, sudsy white head and some lace. Color is a clear light yellow with a big bubble trail. Aroma is skunk hop and ever so slight malt. Flavor is a shallow sweetness with a hint of bitter plus a bit of carbonic tang. Body is a little watery. Finish is like flavor with a lingering sweetness. My last one ever.

1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 DeanF (1477) - Iqaluit, Nunavut, CANADA - AUG 8, 2009
Very vague hint of bread in the aroma, and not much else. Decent head and darker yellow colour, not a bad looking beer, especially for a "light" brew. Tastes like bread, sort of a dark rye. No hints of alcohol (but what do you expect at 2.5%!) or anything else. Not much going on here. Almost tastes like a low-alcohol, like in the 0% range.

Not as bad as the abv and "light" would imply. I imagined it would be a lot more watery and flavorless than it was. Had a descent hop profile actually. Skunky type hops, but I am not at all opposed to this character gievn the right profile.
