Draught. Golden color, small white head, light maltiness in aroma. Flavor is grainy watery, but not terrible for a light. Clean finish.

Bottle. Golden in color with absolutely no head. No smell... huh. Crisp in the mouth, but also watery. Not horrid, but not good.

Bottled
Pale yellow, small white head. Sugary, almost butterscoth - diacetyl aroma, slightly lemony. Light, carbonated palate, toffee flavors. Notes of soda in the finish. Light-weight also qualitywise. Very overrated here.

Head poured up nice, but receded almost instantly. Faintly sweet seltzery aroma. Taste is restricted to a mild sweetness that rides atop the moderate carbonation. A Little bubbly bite to it, but not unpleasant. I could definitely see drinking a few on a hot day. It IS refreshing (I popped it in the freezer for a minute because ice cold it is the only way I can get an ice beer down) when cold. Just not much else besides refreshing. The low alcohol is nice though. At 3.2% it is practically N/A for most beer geeks.

(Bottled) Paleish golden color with an instantly disappearing head. Mild, grainy aroma with rice and mushroom hints. Quite sour and chemical, canned mushroom flavor with cardboard hints. No hops that I’d recognize. Light-bodied, carbonated palate. A quite awful, chemical and artificial brew. I’d rather have the calories.

Pretty much a bud light. It’s nearly clear, all watery tasting, and the tiny white bubbles you get in a bud light. There’s really no redeeming quality of this beer either since the low alcohol content wont even get you drunk.
