Look, it's $15 for 30 cans.
As a light lager, it's solid. Nothing mind-blowing but definitely the kind of beer you want to keep in your fridge.
Crisp, refreshing, and insanely quaffable.

Genesee Light is a good beer. One of the best light beers I've ever had. It's made in NY which is a major plus. The flavor is nice and has a hint of citrus. Carbonation is appropriately measured and it's not expensive. Definitely worth a try.

I’m giving this beer a 5 in appearance. There literally was a carbonation “tornado” that formed after I poured into a glass. Never in thousands of beers have I seen this. Smell is awful, taste is very smooth and easy to slug down. Enjoyable for what it is.

24oz can stamped H158 1103:38 poured into a large mug at fridge temp, no ABV listed on can. The beer pours bright light golden straw yellow with off white head. The head recedes to a thin ring skim coating. The aroma is a little yeasty and vegetable. The taste is very nuetral up front with no real malt washing into a barely tart, mildly bitter and buttery finish. The mouthfeel is thin bodied with above average carbonation and an undry finish. Overall, average. Too much unfinished business for this yeast. The microwave popcorn butter is the strongest flavor here.

We utilized this at a middle of nowhere, upstate New York casino. Found it at a “redemption center” in a one stoplight town. The 12er was located on the bottom of the cooler fridge in a section that hadn't been opened since the 90’s. Went down easy and did the job.
