Budweiser American Ale

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Amber Ale
St. Louis, Missouri USA

an impressive venture by budweiser. a solid brew with cascade hops, one of my personal favorites, this beer poured a clear amber with a good nose and moderate foam.

Bottle. Deep amber pour with a large white head that quickly fades. Aroma is very faint,malty sweet and some hops. Flavor is bland, a little bitterness in the finish. Not terrible, but pretty boring.

bottle, pours a deep copper with a tall light tan head. Sweet carmel malt and cascade nose. Smells suprisingly good. The strong points : it’s fairly well rounded, has a nice malt body and a thin, but decent hop bite in the finish. The weak points : it’s watered down, and I feel that if the flavors were just a tad stronger, this would be a solid beer. I’m still pleasantly suprised, it’s drinkable.

DRECK. I couldn’t finish a second one. I was hoping that maybe I had found a cheap sessioner along the lines of Sam Adams...by was I wrong. It just flat out tastes cheap. The corn and rice adjucts come right to the front, an unpleasant soapy flavor floats around in there as well. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was artificial coloring added. Avoid it. RUN FROM IT. I will buy Mickeys before I buy this again.

Draught at WBF. Poured a clear amber with a decent sized tan head. Sweet malts with a hint of hops in the aroma. Flavor, although better than most from AB, just wasn’t enough to win me over. Seemed a little watery and not hoppy enough.

Decent looking beer - copper color and an off-white head. Taste is caramel and citrus hops. A liitle too sweet for the style, but its alright.

Bottle. Dark amber. Minimal head. Tasty vanilla malt nose. Flavour is basic amber ale. A little sweet, thin and tinny.
