I will start with this:  Slim Chance is arguably the best "lite" beer I have ever had and it only has 125 calories per serving. This beer is clean, refreshing and full of flavor.

Slim Chance poured golden with a weak head.

Its aroma was laced with raw grain, light yeast and bready notes.

Up front flavor was raw-earthy malts.  The hops certainly added a lot of character as they seemed to impart the body to the beer.  The hops were slighty sour and citrusy that went well with some "cream" like "vanilla" flavors.

Slim Chance finished bright with just a touch of bitterness.

The body of this beer was light with a medium amount of carbonation.

For someone looking for an everyday "lite" beer this is a winner.  Moreover, I found this beer to be very refreshing even when not counting calories. 

The first time I tried this, I did not realize this was a low calorie, "lite" beer. I picked this up in a sampler pack and initially assumed it was a spring or summer seasonal beer.

Compared to the brewers other offerings, the flavor was a little watery.  That is what I think worked as the beer was not heavily flavored and an overall nice summer beer.
