As soon as I read the news, I knew we’d get a proper send off from you, Ron. Sad to see this one go. They could never seem to keep it in stock where I’m from in NC, but then they never devoted much shelf space to it. Sometimes it’s even hard to find regular High Life, especially in 12oz bottles. Thanks for the final review. Cheers!

Hi Jay, I trusted your past, positive review of High Life light from a long while back, and grabbed a my first 12 shortly after the video. Since that time, It became my go-to light beer. Very Sad to see it go! Thanks

Haven't had one of these in a while .... will need grab once more before it's officially gone (if i can find it). Being that you are in the NOLA area, interestingly i can tell you that when i used to live in Atlanta area there was & still is a Creole/Cajun bar and restaurant called - Big Easy Grille. They had bottles of High Life Light for like $2 or something like that. When i would go there on occasion which i did (few times a year).... i would get them often. Usually mixed it up between the High Life Light bottles and some of the Abita draft offerings they had, mainly the amber when i would go there. It's been some years now ... will need to get back for old times sake whenever i am able to get back to ATL

Loved New Orleans each time I have visited Jay…. both when I visited on trips to see my sister who used to live outside of Monroe in NE Louisiana 10 plus years ago as well as a couple visits when I lived in Houston 2014. The place I referenced earlier that had High Life Light for $2 a bottle was a New Orleans themed place in Atlanta however…. did used to enjoy going there during my GA years to get a little Bourbon Street kinda feel and eats….. plus $2 High Life Light bottles lol … Big Easy Grille on Collier Road in ATL … would be fun to go back … if they still serving up bottles of High Life Light as their cheapo option … guess it won’t be for too much longer

A nice eulogy to High Life Light. R.I.P to some decent budget light beers. I will especially miss the Hamm’s Special Light. HSL to me tasted as good as Miller Lite for a much reasonable price. It was a hard beer to find but worth it if you could locate it. I was worried for awhile the regular Hamm’s was going away as well. I Couldn’t find it on the shelves for about 2 months earlier this summer.

I've had High Life a couple of times here through an importer and always liked it (paid quite a bit for a 12oz can, though); if they'd sold the Light version I would have tried it, too. It's funny with light beer here in Germany - not so easy to find and when you do it's really low in ABV, often 2.7%, I think, and about 120 calories for a 500ml bottle. I wonder why American brewers can mange a light beer at a decent ABV but here it's always so thin bodied?
@alexanderhill6709

@JamesD Bell239 Hmm, good point, could be that. I find these purity laws more of a kind of insular, protective practice these days I have to say. Every budget beer here that costs around 30 - 40¢ a bottle is brewed in accordance with those rules and some are absolutely disgusting (some, though, are surprisingly drinkable). I actually don't mind beers with adjuncts. But that's beside the point :-) Maybe there's someone here with more knowledge than I have about it all!
