My first review of one of the "Big 3's" offerings. Can poured into a standard curved rim pint glass. This is my favorite go-to beer when I'm mowing the lawn. It would therefore probably score higher if I had waited for a hot summer day to review, but that seems dishonest. The beer should stand on its own merits, without help from the environment, and from gallons of experience with this beer I already know ahead of time this guy doesn't.

A: Pours a fizzy-light yellow color that I don't care for. I know it's SUPPOSED to look that way, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

It did pour an impressively large white head, more than a fingers worth... but it dissipated quickly.

S: Watered down corn and sugar. Very muted. This beer has virtually no scent.

T: And on the first sip it's... distinctly Coors Light. What is there to say? It's watery, fizzy, and sweeter than it should be. On the positives, Coors light never tastes as overly-malty-sweet as, for example, LaBatt Blue Light does. But that's not setting the bar very high.

M: Light. Smooth. A very mild sweetness on the aftertaste, but nothing that could be defined as a "tongue coating".

D: It's low ABV and high water-content allows you to slug back a whole lot of these in one evening... but the lack of flavor, in any form, means that I only choose to when the temperature rises above 90. This beer has it's place in my fridge... that place is waaay in the back, available for consumption after mowing the lawn, and a cheap option to provide for guests who would honestly prefer this over an IPA or a Stout anyway. For those reasons, and those reasons alone, it isn't a complete and utter failure.
