Our Light is brewed for adventure and your "light style". Our beer is an all-malt lager brewed with pilsner and Carapils malts and Vanguard hops. Crisp and refreshing, it has only 95 calories and 2.6 carbs and goes great with almost anything. This brew goes down easy while hanging with friends at a crawfish or shrimp boil, after a run or cutting the grass!

Bottle from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours slightly hazy gold with a transient fizzy white head. Aroma seems to be bread and citrus. Flavor is pretty much like the good old Near Beer. Except maybe gummier in the finish.

12 ounce bottle from Total Wine West Richmond, VA, on 3/21/11. Pours a clear golden color with a medium sized frothy white head that fades fairly quickly. Pale grassy aroma, faint graininess. The taste is grassy hops, grain, something fruity. Thin-medium bodied. About what I expected.

Barley malt and corn nose. Hazy yellow, thin head. Tart malt flavor, decent strength. A touch of lemon meringue in the finish. Full of flavor for a light beer.

Bottled@Monks Café Sveavägen, Stockholm. Golden colour, not much head. Aroma is quite much cooked vegetables along with some mild fruits and bready malts. Flavour is saltwatery along with cooked vegetables, mild fruits and rather bread malts. Not very pleasant...

Bottle. So this is the last part of a slummin’ with light beers night. Pour is a little darker (yellow) than the previous ratings, but head is virtually nonexistent. Aromas are a robust mix of straw and grain (well, by robustI mean for the company this keeps.) Flavor is an annoyingly sweet mix of malt and straw... not even grass, but that sweet and obnoxious smell you get from an old bale of slightly wet straw. Still, in comparison with some of its AB peers, this is a best in class for the night. I won’t be back ever again, but my Abita Light experience wasn’t completely awful.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is was a corn malt and very metallic. The taste is as bad as the aroma. Total opposite of the commercial description.

Twist off cap from a short brown 12 oz stubby bottle. Dirty old water smell, but in a good way. Surprizingly, slightly hazy pale yellow appearance.Looks somewhat like many wheat beers I’ve tried. Wet eldridge straw flavor and palate. Cannot detect much bitterness in the nearly industrial flavor. Amicable carbonation. A background cardboard hint that is remenicent of Coors Gold or N/A. Finish is rather mild and well behaved. Unique washed out aftertaste. Overall, one of the more interesting pale lagers.
