Appearance – Clear light yellow colour with an average size fizzy white coloured head. There is an average amount of carbonation showing and there is some fair lacing. The head lasted for around 4 minutes before it was gone.

Smell - Grains, bread, corn, malts

Taste & Mouth - The beer has an average amount of carbonation. I can taste malts, grains, and corn. There is also a bit of a corn syrup or apple sweetness. It ends with a grainy corn syrup aftertaste.

Overall – Another beer that didn't really stand out in any way other than the fact that it contains a lot of adjunct flavours. Not something I would revisit but I managed to drink the entire can without any issues.

Keystone played a part in my high school years, chasing the bottled taste in a can. Unfortunately I can only find the light version distributed around these parts, but will snap this up and revisit with an updated review as soon as I fine the regular stuff, which apparently still exists.

I had some hope for this one as a buddy claimed it was good. I don't know exactly what I smelled when the can opened, but it was not good. Unfortunately, this overwhelmed everything else about the beer.

Keystone, as well as the more common Keystone Light, were common around here in the 1990s. Now, even Keystone Light is hard to find. Would be a good lawn mowing beer if available, though.

Serving Type: 341 mL Bottle

A- Pours a decent enough looking Golden liquid with a sudsy 1 finger white head that dissipates quickly. Minimal lacing.

S- Sour Apples and Light grain flavours.

T- Distinct flavour of apples and other odd fruit (even vegetable) notes. Not tasteful in any way.

M- Light body and moderately high (prickly) carbonation.

O- While not the worst beer I've ever had, I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to buy Keystone. Sure, it's drinkable, but that's the only compliment I really have for it.
