Handwritten notes: Curious... a white beer called a "light ale", with a long, protracted and bitter finish, lingering like tonic water. In fact, this may be the single longest aftertaste I've ever had in a beer. Nearly half an hour later, I could still taste the bitterness. Hoo-wee. I have espoused previously about the bad press aftertaste has received. He's not such a bad guy, just misunderstood. This ain't no Bud Select 55 that you slam before driving the kids to soccer practice. No, sir, low alcohol content or not, the cops will smell this on your breath the next day.
