Commercial Description:
Beach Bum is an all-malt American blonde ale, which draws its deep golden color from the finest pale and caramel roasted barley malts. This beer is dry hopped with the choicest imported Alsace and Hallertau hops as well as Cascade hops from the Pacific Northwest, which lend to its pleasant hop aroma and its slightly spicy and fruity taste.

Bottle thanks to thirdeye11. Pours with a fading white head over a clear golden body. No aroma really, maybe some biscuit and grass. Taste is a bit bitter, and not much else. Bad, dry, bland!

Light malty aroma, poured a pale golden color. Light malty flavor along with some honey? Very thin palate is typical of this type of beer. Not a very good beer, and the worst of the Michelob seasonals (which is saying a lot).

There are so many weak beers produced by Anheuser-Busch. I don’t know why they made another.

Bottle. Pours a pale gold with a bit o a white head. Aroma is a lot of grain with slightly-detectable sweetness - caramel, maybe? Taste is about the same - clean but weak, weak, weak. They’re trying, but it’s not quite there.

12 oz bottle from local grocery chain. Grainy aroma with honey and caramel. Light spicy hop aroma. Clear golden with frothy off-white head. Fairly clean flavor, light caramel and very light spicy hop notes. Medium fizzy mouthfeel. Finish is clean and dry with touch of residual bitterness. Not bad.

12oz bottle into a pint glass. Ugh. One of the worst seasonals from A-B. Boring, bland,
