The only thing this abomination has going for it is the low calorie count. It would be a real shame if something this bad was actually high in calories.

As for the taste, I think carbonated water with a little roundup in it would be a good approximation.

This is only for non beer drinkers whose taste buds were burned off with a torch.

Been holding off reviewing this one because I was going back and forth on considering it a straight up light beer, which I rated it as. It is jut below poor and at the high end of terrible. It is extremely watery and flat tasting. If I were to rank it as a low calorie brew and solely as such, I would rank it at about 2.5. Halfway between poor and average

Look - very pale/clear.

Smell - you ever smell a used beer can that you found on the ground when you were a kid? That's what this smells like.

Taste - fizzy and watery. It literally is reminiscent of tonic water or soda. Very carbonated.

Feel - worse than the taste or the smell is the feel. It's so bubbly and carbonated on your pallette it feels like a Sprite.

Overall - look, any beer that has it's caloric intake in it's name wasn't made to be good. If you're on a diet that restricts how many calories you consume this is a decent replacement for a regular light beer (Miller lite, Bud light, Coors light). The reviews of those beers will let you know you're just substituting terrible beers with a really watered down terrible beer though.

Had one at the golf course, and while it wasn't that great it was better than I thought it would be--good enough, I feel for a short review. So here's the review:

Pretty much indistinguishable from Miller Lite.

That's sort of impressive, considering its caloric lightness (which in beers such as Michelob Ultra and the other Miller 64 create a weird aroma that's like dirty socks). Grainy start, and a hoppy finish that is light but still discernibly hoppy. Totally drinkable.

Super straw yellow color, the usual mixture of a ton of a water and very little barley. Flimsy white head props up and hits the bricks right quick. Aroma of almost nothing.

Taste of almost nothing. Highly carbonated and watery. On the plus side, you can drink this and hydrate, without worrying about the water quality from some 3rd world shithole if you come across this abroad.

I guess there are no off flavors, so in terms of taste you can't dock it too hard, but mouth feel, jeez, its overly carbonated water that had some shitty beer spilled into it.

It's awful. I don't know why I'm even rating it. It can only be beat by Genesee Light, Milwaukee's Best Light, and Kirkland Signature Light. It's just bad.

This was like water in every aspect. MGD is already pretty sketchy. If I want a beer, then I'll have beer. If I want water, I'll have water. Palest straw color. No aroma. Barely any taste. Felt like water.

This CANQuest (tm) originally took place on 05-09-2010.

Another one that I CANnot believe that I have not reviewed previously. Anything in support of the CANQuest, I suppose.

First, let me say that when this first hit the market back in the late-1980's, I was a HUGE fan in its unleaded version. Regular was much better then its High Life counterpart and this beat Lite six ways to and on Sunday. After I toured the Miller plant in MKE for the first time, in 1992, I was hooked. Today? Let's see ...

From the outset, it had both similarities and contrasts with its leaded version (MGD). I got a nice couple of fingers of bone-white head with lousy retention. Samey-same. Color was a paler shade of golden-yellow with NE-quality clarity. Close to samey-same. Nose was still filled with adjuncts, especially corn, but not as prevalent. Pretty much samey-same. Mouthfeel was watery and there was not any real taste. It was so innocuous as to wonder why bother. Finish was mighty tasteless, stripped of any fabric of beer. Colored water. Feh. I might as well have had some water. At least my caloric intake was low. Sheesh.

This one's badge/patch may now be in jeopardy.
