Pours a nice dark amber color with a thin tan head. It had some caramel maltiness with a hoppy finish to even out the flavor. Not too bad for Budweiser.

Not too bad surprisingly. It manages to drink like any typical amber ale, nothing special about it, but not noticeably bad either.

12 oz bottle at Applebees, BUffalo NY. Pours nice dark copper colour, with decent head. Aroma of malt, slightly soapy. Flavour not bad, considering its from A-B, decent when there is nothing better available.

On draft at the Flyers game, one of the better selections at the time (enough Shocktop or Bass). The pour was light amber in color with an ok head. The aroma was caramel and grains. The flavor followed the aroma, for sure not strong for the style, but not a total bust either. True, a bit light for the style. The finish was relatively clean, though, with a semi-dry character (but no hop punch). An ok lighter beer w/o the adjunct overload.

aroma of malt and yeast. there is some hops as well. something else too.......almost like dishwasher detergent. taste is of mild cascade hops. it does have a slightly watered down taste. nice smooth finish. probably AB’s best so far. not a best beer but certainly one that I could drink casually.

Pours golden brown with a small amount of head. A slight smell of banana on the nose with a faint hint of malt. Does not lace the glass at all. A huge step up for budweiser but why in the hell are they so scared of hops?!?! More of them and probably a bit more barley would do wonders for this beer, but mostly hops. Impressive though for a macro maybe they can do even better with another creation, oh wait they are owned by foreigners now haha.

Draft: poured dark amber with a medium sized light beige head. Malty aroma. Full body. Taste is fairly dry with some malt sweetness and a nice balance of hops. I kind of like it.
