Not bad for a light beer. Golden colored, but much more head on this than other light beers I’ve had. Nice foamy lacing... ever see that on a Miller Light? A sweet malty flavor with a touch of citrus. Nothing too complex but nothing foul about it either and decent flavor for the style. If you’re into light beers, sub this for some others you might have from time to time and you’ll probably not want to switch back."

The Holiday Season means you drink whatever your host gives you... Bland, boring but not unpleasant. And hey... less filling!

Golden yellow body, decent sized fluffy white head. Vague grassy arome and some wisps of alcohol. Flavour is grainy and cereal like, barest touch of bitterness. Watery palate, pretty boring but not the worst light beer I have ever had.

341ml brown bottle. Pale yellow with a well formed white head that left good lacing. Dryish, dusty hop aroma. Some malt, dryish, light and grainy Thin, easy to drink. For a "light" styled beer, I’d say this is pretty good.

Suprisingly, not too bad. Pours a sparkling gold body, but again the head is thin and short lived. Looks like a glass of apple juice now. Aroma is hoppy, and actually decent. Grainy as well. Taste is hops bitterness, some grassy, or grain notes, and a tad sweet. Decent bite to it, crisp finish. Not bad for a light.

bottle. light malt and somewhat grassy aroma. pours a light golden colour with a small bread-like head. flavour is watery and bland, though I can definitely taste a little bit of hops on the finish. not great, but not all that bad either.

Nice light golden color,small white head that had a decent hangtime then faded to leave little behind.The aroma was malty sweet with a light cereal like quality and a faint hint of hops.The taste was nothing special but decent enough to make it a good lawnmower beer.Malty sweet with a hint of hops maybe a slight fruit presence but very faint at best.Over all a nice light brew that is easy to drink,hence the lawnmower idea.
