Can thanks to Dan, Ice cold, hell half frozen! Pours a clear copper color with a small white head. A light sweet nose, honey and paper. The flavor is thin, watery, some rice and grains. Sweet. But overall, very thin and near water. Clean overall though. Decent beer.

From tap at Taco Mac. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is light butterish and malty. Toasted malty, cornish and vague bitter. Toasted malty finish.

Poured a pale yellow color with a medium sized white head. The aroma was corny and a bit grassy. Sweetish and corny flavor with a touch of grass. Watery in both flavor and body. Sort tangy corny finish. Not good.

A watered down version of the Premium. It’s easy to drink and refreshing, but nothing else.

From an old time favorite brewery. This light beer? I bought a case of it because of the price and forgot I didn’t rate it. Last can from a 24 pack of 12 ounce cans. Recalling rating from last night, wew. Refreshing pale yellow american style pale lager in looks and taste. however, I believe this to be significantly better than most lager and average for a Pennsylvania lager. Nothing offensive about this and rather enjoyable. Finish is fine and dandy tho it could be just a tad smoother. Nice to have a few of these after a ride on the thrashing machine.

Weak grass and hay aroma, slightly shitty, with very light lemon notes. Yellow pour with a vanishing thin head. Seemingly flavorless initially, but weak grain presents at midpalate with a lemon grass finish. I’ve had worse and it made a good chaser for the chili beer I just had.

On tap at the National Folk Festival in Richmond, VA as Yuengling Light. Clear golden amber body with a medium creamy off-white head. Sweet grainy aroma. Light grain flavor with a sweet finish.

Bottle, as Yuengling Light. Not too bad for a light lager. Yellow gold color, a thin but tight and creamy head. Aroma is mostly bready (distinctly rye), with a touch of musty hop. Fizzy palate, again very bready, with an empty finish. Light palate, flavorful but still boring.
