    Pours clear, bubbly yellow with a thick, if not long-lasting, snow-white head. Aroma is - hello? Earth to Iron City Light! Just a whiff of malt, that’s all. Crisp flavor has a little malt, but it tastes more like seltzer water with a few drops of beer in it. Even the damn gnats that have been plaguing me for a couple weeks aren’t going for this. Mouthfeel is indistinguishable from carbonated water. Well, had to try it.

    More corn like the original but a little less heavy on the adjuncts. I like that better, but it's feel is way too watery and there is no follow through on the aroma or flavor.

    Probably one of my more expensive lager ticks, bought at the airport bar in pittsburgh international ($6) and then tipped ($2) because the bartender let me take it with me without opening it .. . 12oz can, emblazoned with the pittsburgh pirates uniform colours .. . simple gold . simple foam .. . light corn and bitter hay .. slick bitter mouthfeel .. decent for a light lager but nothing i'd ever want again... . feelin good lewis!

    pours a very pale gold color with nice bubbly head that quickly fades to a thin lacing. There's a great deal of carbonation bubbles rising to the top. The aroma is grainy with a nice grassy hop aroma. The taste is also grainy with a slight grassy hop character. There's a hint of an apple-like sweetness in the finish. Mouthfeel is light and crisp.

    One of the most non-obnoxious, non- vile and disgusting light beers available IMO. All characteristics are what I would expect for a quality specimen of this type. A good "gardening tool"... thirst-quenching and righteous on a warm day.

    Light colored, pale golden pour. A bit of malt and not much else, a little watery. I have had much worse light beers. This would be at the top of the light pile if one existed.

    Pours a light, pale yellow with some head and lacing. Ample carbonation. Aroma is of some malts, corn, and hops. Taste is light, watery, with some bitterness in the finish.

    "I was relatively pleased with this Light beer. I will agree there are better ones out there, but I cant find any reason to complain about this brew. I thought it was great."

    one of the best tasting light beers on the market has a good taste that does not taste watered down. Wish it was more readly available here in west virginia

    The aroma is typical to swill and encompasses some sweet corn as well as some grain and malt. The appearance is an extremely light yellow, almost like water with yellow food coloring, with a small head on top that is bubbly and white and diminishes quickly leaving some lacing. The mouthfeel is thin and watery and very light-bodied with no complexity with little balance. The flavor is grainy and corn-like with some weak malt and is watery. Overall, just another swill that is no better than bud light or miller lite, drinkable I guess.
