Super cheap, extremely light beer with almost no character outside of a touch of sweetness. Can I review every cheap beer on the planet and still be a beer idol? What if I review every beer ever and all my reviews are the same? Is that cool?

pours a pale yellow color with a short white head that fades very quickly and leaves a very thin lace. The aroma is very faint but contains light malts, some adjuncts and miniscule touch of hops. The taste starts out some mild breadiness from adjuncts and a very thin malt character followed by a little bit of sweetness. The hops presence is almost nonexistent. The after-taste is slightly bready. The mouthfeel is crisp and a little smooth, very light body, medium-to-high carbonation, finish is clean. It's good that this was cheap and one of my many college beers.

Reviewing this for what it is--a cheap adjunct lager. That being said, I kind of enjoy it. Very little aroma or taste but unoffensive; highly drinkable when cold. I can see why this consistently medals at the Great American Beer Festival. For the price, I would take this over BMC every time.

This is a forgettable beer. It ios a very pale yellow with almost no aroma or flavour. Like water, this goes down the hatch best when close to freezing. Unlike regular beers, trying to get drunk on this will be ruined by multiple trips to the bathroom.

For a light lager, I would rate OM light as one of the better ones currently out there. It has a decent mouth feel and taste relative to other 'light' beers. The aroma is bit off though. Now comparing it with the whole spectrum of beers is a whole different story. Saying that though, I can see why it is the most highly awarded light beer during the past decade.

It is what it is....lawnmower beer basically. Mostly like the regular OM, but watered down a bit. I may prefer it more over the original. There may be a few worse, but not too many.

Old milwaukee aint that great to begin with and its worse watered down. Lower end as far as light beers go, there are plenty others i would chose first.

Far worse that the original OM. The smell is the worst! It freaking stinks. The lower alcohol content doesn't help. It's nasty. Go for the extra calories and get the original.

Pours yellow/golden with no head, although some lace. Weak aroma of grains, some hops, usuals. The mouthfeel is smooth and medium-bodied. Flavor of malts, hops, lemon/citrus, and some spice background. Not much to it, although not a bad beer on a warm day.

The one we get here is brewed by Strohs Canada (which is basically Sleeman's). It is brewed at 4% (woohoo ! 0.1% more than in its home country). It pours a light yellow colour with a white fizzy head, that has not bad retention, and small amount of lace. Carbonation is pretty active, but only sticking to the middle of the glass (very weird). Aweful chemical nose, but at least it don't smell like water. Smooth and almost creamy mouthfeel. Taste of rusty water at first kicking into a corn finish with hardly any aftertaste. Maybe light malt. Not a horrible beer, but I would prefer having an Amstel Light before this one (or even a Miller Lite).
