Watered down corn water... Very light. I don't really like 'bashing' beers, but this one was just so watered down it was rediculous. I got one at this b-day party thing and the guy who brought it said 'oh you picked the right beer' and I was thinking, what are you talking about, the other choices are Corona, and Bud Light, what am I supposed to do.

Not many surprises here. Pours an ultra-pallid yellow with boatloads of carbonation desperately attempting to rebuild a fallen head of white. Dusty, adjuncty aroma with notes of Play-Doh and a quick whiff of alcohol. Flavor is more of a "non-flavor" with a mineral water base limply presenting a hint of sweetness with a dash of corny grains and a note of sourness on the finish.

While seemingly devoid of any redeeming qualities, this beer is not without a saving grace. No, it is NOT so Biff McHardbody can cop a righteous buzz while maintaining his rock-hard abs. The redeeming facet of any "Low-Carb" is that they allow diabetics (like my octogenarian mother) to occasionally sample what they remember as "beer" without too much worry about diving into a diabetic-coma. Hell, I may be in the same boat someday and I hope that some forward-thinking micro will pursue the low-carb trend and propose a tastier solution than what is currently on the market.

Beer... typical American crappage (that’s my own word, don’t steal it) but with a strange ULTRA watery end. The new Guinness bottles have their own patented CO2 system that adds creaminess to it’s feel. The new Michelob Ultra has it’s own patented badet system to flush the palate of any detectable taste. Perfect beverage to drink with a piece of lunchmeat, piece of cheese, and carbolite bar while reading the softcover version of the Adkins Diet.
