Bottle. 12 oz. Honestly, one of the worst beers I have ever tasted. Pure garbage. Aroma smelled like straight urine. I had to pour it out. Avoid at all costs.

12 oz bottle from TJ’s. Tastes kind like a corn syrup soda. Could not finish the bottle. It’s easy the worst beer type beverage I’ve ever tried.

Bottle from TJ’s Kenwood. Tastes kind of like a really light citrus soda. Really not much going on with this. It goes down easy though.

Bought at Trader Joe’s. The appearance of "barely there beer." It looks like ginger ale. A white active head that died away quickly. Aroma reminds me of the appearance. Wow, the flavor, well, see appearance and aroma. Ok, there is just a bit of malt tasted. Its hard to say too little about this beer.

Haha, my mother actually bought this one for me because the bottle was "cute". Poured out a very pale yellow with virtually no head. Aroma was almost absent, maybe corn? Crosses the palate and the taste buds like water. Typical "lite" beer. Forgettable.

355ml bottle from Trader Joes Indianapolis. Poured the lightest colour I think possilbe for a beer. Lightest I’ve ever seen anyway. No aroma, no flavour. An alcohol delivery system in it’s purest form. I would be surprised to learn if it contained neither malt or hops. I think if I mixed simple syrup and water and allowed it to ferment, this is what you’d get.

Bottle. Pale straw with a slight cold haze and a moderate bubbly white foam head. Nondescript sweet malt aroma, corn. Very fizzy and carbonated with little flavor, just a bland sweetness followed by a cloying astringent finish. Super light, but oddly not that driinkable because of the lingering aftertaste.

12oz bottle from Trader Joes. Pours a clear yellow with a small white fizzy head. It looks like frothy urine. Aroma is of corn and malt. Taste is of corn, grain, and malt. Not too much to say about this beer, taste wise. It was just a crisp, easy drinking pale lager, that was neither offensive or bad. Great for hot summer days, or nights in the gutter.
