Tasted on a whim at the brewery taproom. Not being a fan of anything light ( an understatement), I am reviewing this stylistically and comparing it to other light lagers.

It is very pale straw yellow in color and sets fourth a decent white head for a light beer. Head only lasts for a few minutes and lace is nil. A thin ring will remain on top.

The smell is very light and crisp. There is a bready, grain malt aroma with a slight floral hop character.

The flavor is very light as expected, but not so as Bud Light or Coors Light would be. There is more malt character than macro lights and a little more discernable hops.

Body is watery light and mouthfeel is like diet soda. For what it is, it's actually not that bad, and quite thirst quenching. I would pick this in a heartbeat against the other light beers out there.
