Commercial Description:
It's Sly Fox's version of a light beer and, man, does it have an attitude. Featherweight is an all malt lager, copper in color and filled with wonderful malt flavor. All that, and low calories too.

Pours a translucent golden copper with a decent off white head. Aroma of sweet malts. The flavor is sweet and grainy. A decent light lager for sure. This one kind of surprised me.

On tap at the Royersford location. This was a light beer? Looked nothing like what I would have expected a low calorie light beer to look like. Poured a darker golden/orange color with a very small sized white head. Aromas and tastes of sweet malts. Nothing that really left an impression.

Light copper in color, big off-white head, just a small bit of lacing around the glass but not much, aroma of corn, bread & honey, fairly smooth body, very easy to drink, but very watery & thin, very little body, certainly meant for the Bud drinkers, very disappointed that they stooped down to the bland & pale lager style, they really didn’t need to do that but like Eric said, they’ll probably sell quite a bit of it at the more upscale Royersford restaurant

Poured a copper color with a small, off white head that quickly diminished leaving no lacing on the glass. Aroma of honey, sweet corn? cereal, other sweet malts. Watery, non descript, grainy malts. No off tastes, though really not many tastes at all.

Pours dark straw with medium, creamy white head. Aroma of malt, some hopcit, and slight honey. Tastes malty, with some hopcit and slight honey at the finish. Smooth palate. A very good pale lager.
