Found "Brew City Light" at the liquor store for around $2.50 a sixer, and just had to try it. Bours a straight, pale gold with a small white head that is totally diminishing. Mildly sweet aroma (sweet corn?). Stale sweet flavor, turning into stale bread and grain, with no aftertaste. Medium/high carbonation, very thin body.

Drank the "Brew City" labeled stuff. Not too bad for the price ($2.99 for the six pack). A little bitter, not much flavor or alcohol. Has decent carbonation.

From Thedm’s "6-pack of Death" - can #2 - Hey - this isn’t quite as bad as Busch NA. Very very thin. very light yellow. very fizzy. Some sweet malt - the taste is barely there.

This stuff obviously isnt very good. But what would you expect from something that is so cheap. Not much to it, pretty watery and harsh.

Another cheap beer from Melanie Brewing. It does have a better taste than the rest of their beers that they brew but its still pretty bad.

Light straw color with a fizzy spritzy diminishing white head. Light grain, hint of hops and soap. Watery in feel and flavor. Light plastic flavors late.

Can. Large sized white head and fine-large sized bubbles that mostly diminished. Very little carbonation, transparent and yellow hue. Malty aroma and a sweet, malty and watery flavor. Smooth, watery and thin mouthfeel. Light bodied beer with fair lacing

This canned brew poured a large white head of fine to medium sized mostly lasting softly carbonated bubbles that left behind a poor lacing. The body was a softly carbonated transparent light orange color. The aroma was very mildly malty. The palate was mildly tingly at the start with a smooth malt hop finish. It has some flavor actually. Not bad for a light beer. I found it hard to add more to the description of the flavor.
