Love this beer. Crisp, Flavorful and not heavy. Goes great with almost any food. Sam Adams Light is my #1 beer.

I love the regular Sam Adams but when they convert it to a light beer, it was a total swing and miss. The iconic char taste is gone and there is nothing but sour water left.

Well between another light beer and this one, as my go-to, I have to say I like the yeast flavors and light lager tones, the smell is hoppy and blissful, when you pop the top and the swirl of Beer fog, protrudes up, you get lost in the malty bliss of a light beer. Usually, I enjoy my full-bodied flavors. But when I need to watch the old Dun lap and am among ladies I tend to go for a light beer until they get a bit tipsy then quickly switch back. As for the look, Same ole sam Adams label with a grey light beer Farce, The taste is like water to me with a hint of hops and yeast. almost bready, the feel of the bottle is 4.5 but a stine is a 5 . overall, This is in the top 3 for light beers. for me.

Amber color with a medium light body. Around middle of the road carbonation.
The aroma is malt,not roasted but just malt. Some earthy grain as well
Taste is really similar to aroma with malt being forward but not cloying sweet
It's really one if the best light beers I've had by far,very far. Most are watered down versions of original and this was fairly flavorful
