Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

You know what youre getting. Pale yellow color with a very slight murkyness. Nose is fairly clean and polished: sweet (subtle) grains and sugars, actually could stand up next to a few good pilsners with the nose. Tastes clean and light, very polished and unoffensive, which I suppose is the point of these light beers, so with that in mind I guess
Pours a very clear pale yellow color with almost no head. Aroma is almost non existent sweet straw. Flavor is actually pretty good and almost pilsneresque. Hayish and malty. Overall, not a bad tasting light beer.
Not a bad light beer. A little more flavor than the mass produced, but still not up to the other Abita beers.
