Too watery, even for a light beer. Finishes skunky. One of the worst light beers I’ve ever had.

This is a top-rate light beer. There is some very light hop flavor and apple aroma. When cold, nothing offensive about it. Standard appearance and light palate.

Courtesy of Vinny’s at the La Crosse airport. Sickly light yellow color with tiny bubbles and a thin white head that was gone fast. Minimal lacing. Faint hops aroma and not much else. Light and clean body without a lot of flavor but very refreshing and easy to drink. Light bitterness makes this beer a lot better tasting than it looks or smells. The finish is also clean and relatively flavorless aside from a light malt sweetness. Non-threatening and straightforward Light beer.

I was not impressed at all. But every area needs its go-to beer when you are drinking just to drink and not to taste.

The body is pale yellow with a small white head. The aroma has some corn and chipped beef gravy. A strange smell, indeed. The taste is grainy with some corn and a bit of metal in the aftertaste. This is not bad for a light mass made pale lager.

A good alternative to all the light beers out there. Inexpensive too. Comes in bottles and cans.

Wasn't a fan of the prior Old Style brew, and since this is its twin, i'm also not impressed. It is easy to drink however, the light hops and mild carbonation help out, and reasonable, and since i live in La Crosse, easy to access.
