Commercial Description:
The Italian immigrants came to Krebs to work in the coal mines that were prevalent in the area at the turn of the century. They wore a light on their hat to show the way through the mines; at the end of the day their "miners light" led the way to a nice, tall, cold beer. A traditional American style beer - dry, light bodied, yet full flavored with a touch of hop finesse, we present Miners Light beer to reflect the tradition of full flavor and sparkling golden brilliance that was so popular with the miners of early day Krebs.

A very bright amber pour, a thin hazy head makes me a bit suspicious. Smells very floral, citrusy, something strange. First sip is cold and a touch sweet but clean. Not really all that bitter, more sour than bitter, I thought. Not the best in their repertoire, but not bad. Not my first choice. But not bad.

Appearance: Pours a lightly hazed, gold body with, well, not much head. Smell: Faint whiffs of malt, corn, and spicy hops. Moving on! Taste: Faint light pale malts paired with some choice corn kernels. Lightly sweet. Spicy hops with just a hint of citrus flavor and bitterness, all of it light, mind you. Drying, crisp finish. Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Just a hair above medium carbonation. Drinkability: Just what you’d expect it to be. It’s a light lager and not too far removed from what you’d get from Budmilloors.

Pours straw color with a thin white head. Smells of sweet malt and stray hops. Tastes light and citrussy. Decent for a session beer.

This is a "safe" beer for Okies who usually only buy grocery store brands. Pete’s Place is an excellent restaurant and its Choc beer is worth a try, but Miner’s Light is nothing special.

Thanks ericandersnavy. Pours a very pale yellow with some chill haze. One finger white head. The nose is sweet, malty, some bready character, crisp, leafy bitterness, I think GMCC hit it with "honey". The flavor is interesting. Malty, bready, some honey, a little citrusy, not corn water for sure. Not bad.

12oz bottle-pours a thin white head and cloudy yellow color. Aroma is musty, wheat, funky. Taste is musty, wheat, funky, faint hops. OK effervescence. Not quite up to the American Wheat except for the carbonation/effervescence.

Sampled from bottle. This light lager pours clear dark gold with a thin white head. Aroma is quite bold for the style. Its malty aroma is quite pleasant compared to a BMC product. Well-balanced flavor with a floral hop presence. The yeast imparts a bit of character not typical for the style. Medium-light body and well carbonated. Good for a light lager, but not a beer that I enjoy often becasue I dislike the style.
