Slim Chance Light Ale

16oz “pint” at Taco Mac, Douglasville, GA, USA.

I REALLY wanted to like this since at 3.9% this kind of beer is just about impossible to find in the US. Unfortunately it was DIRE.

Appearance was just the usual, nasty macro, ho head, no lace, watery pour. Again, nose (virtually nothing) was as expected and par for the style/course. Mouthfeel was from the same stable, but again not to disappointing since, (a) it supposed to be somewhat like that, and (b) that was what i was expecting, however the tastes were a different matter.

Essentially I got a fused, plastic, utterly unfathomable, utterly odd, utterly disgusting combo. about 4oz was all I could take and down the drain it went. Close to undrinkable, this is one of the very few commercial beers (most BMC products included) that I LITERALLY found impossible to consume. Nasty in the first degree.

Massive shame since I remain devoid of low ABV brews. 3.9% can taste infinitely better than this, and the real travesty is that some people will associate this tripe with low ABV which, as all Englishmen know, is NOT the case.
