Busch Light has a stronger flavor than other beers in this category, which can be good or bad depending on your taste buds. If you're a fan of Busch beer, you'll probably love this. If you hate Busch beer, chances are you won't like the light version either.

I found this to be medium body - not as watery as many of the other low carb beers. It is bright with a hint of bitterness, and a nice finish. Other tasters have reported they feel this is a quite reasonable beer. At 6.7g it's about the same carbs as a Bud Light, which is a bit high but within reason for low carb dieting.



These medium bodied low carb beers are important if you're going to drink the beer with food, to balance against the flavors of the food. But just keep in mind that this is higher carb than usual - you can't be drinking 3 or 4 of these and expect to lose weight.

Update
A visitor wrote me in December 2006 saying the can now says 3.2g of carbs and 95 calories. It sounds like they might have updated their recipe to a new one!

Another visitor confirms -
