look: 2.5 | smell: 2.25 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 2.75
Look:
Pours a crystal clear, bubbly, bright straw yellow color with a thin, satin white head of soapy foam that immediately fizzles away and leaves very little lacing on the glass.

Aroma:
Hardly anything at all. . . corn tortillas. Apple.

Taste:
Tastes like tostitos tortilla chips.

Feel:
The best thing about this beer. Bubbly, thirst quenching. Refreshing.

Overall:
A watered down version of Corona Extra (obviously lol).

no pour - clear bottle. urine yellow. damn near heineken skunk on the nose. taste is quite skunky too. rather dull. corona extra can be tolerable with a lime but not even that could save this one. thin and highly carbonated mouthfeel. this one isn’t for me.

Left in the can. Aroma is sweet corn. Tastes metallic, some fruity notes, malt. It’s not too too bad at first glance I had it rated 2.75 for taste but then an absolutely horrible aftertaste comes in and lingers. Mouthfeel is ok. Overall it just isn’t very good and for the price there are much better light options available

Pours out of the can a crystal clear golden-orange. Yields a finger of fizzy head that dissipates quickly. Smells like sweet corn and malts. Taste follows the nose. Not too much going on here. You like it or you don't. It's pretty basic.

The more beers I try, the more I realize that what people think are bad or what people think are great are blinded by their pretentious ideas of what they should be like. Taste, like everything personal is subjective, I try to rate and enjoy as objective and also subjective as I possibly can, no matter the style or my prefered tastes.

That said I do like me some light beers and I'm surprised it took me more than 500 different beers tried before I got to this one. This is beer 514 (actually more but some I couldn't find on here) and with that accumulated experience I will say this is a fine, if not, damn decent light beer. Blew my expectations away and I think I prefer it to the Extra or Premier.
I work 5-6 days a week, I like something quick and refreshing after a 10+ hour day, and this does it. Smooth drinkability with a light crisp feel to go down easy like others of this style, relaxing and enjoyable on a hot day. (or after a laborious shift). Nothing complicated or a lot to process, just a clean beer to drink.

Will it be my preferred beer of choice? No, I like to change it up every so often, but I think I will fit this into my normal rotation.

I really like Corona Extra and Premier, so I figured I would go for the light this time. That was where it all went wrong. I opened the first bottle after chilling it and it smelled like cigarettes. I got past it by giving the bottle a few more sniffs but the smell was not like the other Corona I have had. The taste was also very bitter and rough, not very smooth, not a good flavor compared to the others.

Pretty disappointed, hopefully it doesn't ruin extra and premier for me.
