Busch NA

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Low Alcohol
St. Louis, Missouri USA

Can shared with tupalev - courtesy of biegaman. Actually looks OK at first - nice golden colour with a large white head - but the head quickly disappears to a thin, scummy layer. Aroma of rotting vegetables and chicken fat - ugh! Body is sticky and greasy. Flavour tastes like slightly rancid chicken stock mixed with the water that corn has been boiled in. Absolutely vile.

Can, 2000th rating: Pale yellow with a thick quickly diminishing white head, sweet malt aroma with a bit of corn, but not sickly sweet like some NA beers. Starts lightly sweet and ends lightly sweet. Watery light body, but with soft carbonation. This is the best NA beer that I have ever tried.

12oz can. How exciting. Pours clear golden color. Thin white head. Very light on the nose. Hints of corn. Flavor is of fizz and water. There is the slightest hint of rinse water on the palate. Very light and not much flavor. Drink up, especially if you don’t drink beer.

Beer #1 from Thedm’s "6-pack attack" - this is beer terrorism!! Pours light yellow - very fizzy; big fluffy head. This is thin, sweet, canned vegetables, Lemon Pledge waxxy. Horrible. Thanks Matt!

clear pale yellow with a metallic/corn aroma. It stings the roof of your mouth if you try and drink it. I hope it didn’t damage the drain.

"Beer" #9 RBSG 06. Thanks to Maniac for making sure I had the chance to try this. Pale fizzy yellow. No aroma. Literally none. Almost no flavor as well, just slight corn. Really better than it is given credit for. Or perhaps my palate was fatigued and I was unable to appreciate the subtle nature of the vileness. Had trouble getting people to try this one. Excellent for rinsing out the glass. Whaleman commented that there was still a drop of the Upstream Barleywine in his glass when he poured the Busch, and the single drop of Upstream came clear through in the aroma. Ultimately, I’ve had far worse, as this wasn’t aggressively bad. There was just literally nothing there.

I saw this in a cooler full of left overs at a party and pocketed a can to see if it was in fact as bad as its reputation. Very pale straw color with a white head so fizzy I can hear it. The nose really smells like a cat pissed on a roll of pennies. Oh this is really bad. Corny, metallic, thin, and something chemical. I don’t know why people chose to drink this. This is truely awful beer.

Clear light gold with a tall frothy white head. Sweet corn aroma. Little flavor, some faint grainyness. Cold wet. As good as a good cold glass of water.
