Can from Ralphs. Light golden in color. Foamy white head. Acidic grainy aroma. Some corn. Lots of corn and fusel. Flavor is a little overwhelming considering this is supposed to be light. Not very good.

Aroma – Very light pale ale aroma.
Appearance – Light golden yellow color, clear and a nice thick head.
Flavor – Light pale flavor this was easy to drink and just a nice hot day beer.
Palate – Crisp Mouthfeel, good texture finishes quite dry.
Overall – Has a decent flavor this was light and easy to drink. Nothing too special a nice lawnmower beer.

Drinking this cold out of the can can be refreshing - if you are thirsty for water but cannot find any this will get the job done. Pretty malty base, corn malt albeit but it is there. Kind of sweet and sour, not over carbonated as what I expected. A tad spicy, the only contribution of the hops. Its light beer, what do you expect. Ugh. Made me a little sick.

This beer is not good, it pours a very light straw color with a nice malty aroma at first that quickly turns to corn and cabbage. The flavor is very light with way too much sweetness and the corn adjunct just overwhelms the flavor profile. Skip this beer and spend a few extra bucks on something worth drinking.

Can from Kroger in November. Pours clear pale color with a large frothy white head that diminished quickly with minimal lacing. Light sweet grainy aroma. Light body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Light sweet flavor with a light sweet finish of an short duration. I would not recommend this to a freind.
