Monster can courtesy Beerhandy, thanks Chris! Keystone light is light indeed. Pours pale, pale yellow, almost a golden white (is that a colour?), with lots of bubbles streaming up to the surface, but funnily creating almost no head. This has got to be one of the weakest aromas ever. Faint creamed corn and boiling veggies, some wet paper. Watery as what comes from the taps. Very faint sweet corn taste with a very slight bitter finish, that might last one second, and that’s being generous. The can says "specially lined", and I imagine it is lined this way to keep what remaining flavours actually exist. This is really just boring, not offensive. After reading more, I see this beer is always smooth, and never bitter. Thank goodness for that. Who wants bitterness anyway? Ohh my, there’s a contest to enter on the side of the can. They are giving away a car every week.....I’m going to see if I’m a winner. Thanks Chris!

Up North of Golden, Colorado there’s a little spring, a tiny brook really, still hidden away from prying eyes even in our modern overpopulated 21st century, and if you want to find it, you need to look for the three nearly identical mountains that will be on your left, about 6 miles North of town, and at the pass between the northernmost and the middle one you will see an odd-shaped extrusion almost in the shape of a horsehose, sideways; a narrow gully runs just behind this and after the third turn (at which point you’ll be facing NNE) you’ll see a narrow crevice opening on your right. Slip through this if you can (it’s only about 16" wide at the narrowest) and you’ll be rewarded, after a scramble and crawl of 50 yards, with a small pond and a beaver dam at the lower edge where the pond narrows. Feeding the pond is this spring, source of some of the finest beer produced in this great state. Bring small containers if you’re brewing your own, as you’ll have trouble getting them down otherwise.

Or you could just mix 6 oz of the spring water with 6 oz of cheap tonic water, throw in a bit of Kayro and grain alcohol, squeeze in a quarter of an old dessicated lime, leave it sit out in the sun with a single hop leaf to muddle, and you’d have Keystone Light. Enjoy.

Drank this stinkburger in a van on my way to Atlantic City after a beer festival in Adamstown, PA where I drank quality beer. Pours a light gold hue reminiscent of urine. Even had the audacity to pour it into the glass I got at the beer festival. Fairly certain it was the cause of my subsequent headache upon arrival at the Borgata. Drink only if destitute, looking for a good laugh or in college or high scool. But of course, as the inebriated Peter Coors would say, "Drink Responsibly".

Can. Almost indetectable aroma of sweet malt. Light yellow. Light barley malt flavor. Nearly a clone of Coors Light - probably couldn’t tell the difference in a blind taste test so might as well save money.

Sadly, I have tried every type of Keystone, and this this the best one out there. It is still pure urine, through and through. Can someone also explain to me why this site shows a BOTTLE of Keysone Light? Isn’t this "bottled beer taste in a can"?

Fratxcore beer. Must be drank ice-cold or it is completely undrinkable. Slight hint of banana in between the overpowering taste of urine and puddle water.

Very similar to the Coors Light line. I enjoy Coors Light so it’s hard not to enjoy Keystone Light. Very easy on the wallet and still an above average light beer. Great for college students.

(Bottle) Pours yellow with virtually no head. Watery and bland, but better than Natural Light.
