For a brewery as large as this, I am impressed. Nice caramel malty flavor with a noticeable hop bitterness. I am glad so many bars that dont stock any decent micros are starting to stock this at least.

Im a budweiser fan and this one hit me right in the middle. Didnt think it was going to be good but was suprised by its different taste of a budweiser brewed beer.

Moderately strong bouqet of wood, dried leaves, cherries,and caramel. Ruby tea colored, clear, with a medium yellow head. Flavor of cherries, but more bitter than your run of the mill amber. Weak dry grass finish that becomes lighter. This is a decent beer from a style and brewer I don’t like.

Pours a clear, amber color with a thin white head and some lacing. Malty aroma with hints of citrus. Tastes of malts, some hops, and notes of caramel and citrus. Not as poor a beer as I was expecting. Actually a decent macro brew attempt at an ale.

Really didnt think this was all that bad. Have been staring at the free sample bottle on my desk for months with little to no interest in indulging. Basic amber pour. Nicely done for BUD. Caramel malts with decent hop bitterness. Nothing i would really ever order but i would drink again if it was between this other AB products

This is definately the Budweiser of ales. The appearance and head aren’t bad, but the taste? Like I said, definately the Budweiser of ales.

I never thought I would give any Budweiser product a good rating, but I am a sucker for cascade hops...I grow them...I brew with them...they are just great. I love the hoppy aroma (cascade), and the nice amber appearance. Nice mouthfeel and good hoppy flavor (cascade again).

22oz bomber. Pours a clear glowing light amber with a nice frothy fine white head. Sweet caramel aroma, kind-of sour, lightly fruity. Flavor follows, strangely sour, papery, peppery, dry breadiness, dull caramel sweetness. Medium/light bodied with a medium mouth feel, like sand paper, chalky, larger soft soda carbonation.
