easy-drinking
Light and refreshing
Easy-drinking describes beverages, especially wines and beers, that go down smoothly without demanding attention or effort.
The term suggests approachable, unchallenging flavor—nothing too bitter, tannic, or complex: a light, easy-drinking lager, an easy-drinking red wine for weeknight dinners.
The quality is praised for casual occasions but sometimes dismissed by connoisseurs as lacking depth.
