Michelob Ultra

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Pale Lager
St. Louis, Missouri USA

Appearance: Pours a crystal clear, pale yellow body with a small, white head. Smell: Vague aroma of tired malts with a background note reminiscent of chemicals, like a hint of malt liquor found its way into here. Taste: Drop of sweetness wrapped around a tiny handful of grain. Again, there’s that hint of chemicals and a sense of cheapness. Squirt of seltzer water on the finish. Mouthfeel: Thin-bodied. Medium carbonation. Rather watery. Drinkability: There’s a slight, but noticeable ickiness to the taste, I’d really prefer it to simply taste like nothing. Maybe I can understand why they’re trying to jazz it up with those various flavorings.

Very light color, can see trough easily. Light head. Smell is light with some malts, a little hops. Taste is weak and much the same as the smell.

Having this one following a couple Coors Lights, I have to say that it had more flavor and more resembled beer. It did have a very high level of carbonation that sort of takes away from its only utility...to drink easily at very cold temperatures on a very hot day. No off tastes or aftertastes. Not altogether horrid, but I’d still probably prefer water.

water, with very little flavor............................................

very faint aroma sort of ricy, pale yellow color. Not much flavor and sort of non-descript, though better than some of the other fizzy water types. finishes cleanly, but since there is not much there...... Could be worse.

Piss water, only reason i drank it was 1.50 draft night.....all the choices suck. But hell you gotta drink something.

I had one of these tonight. It was very cold. Had almost no head, definitely no flavor. Very weak all around. But quite refreshing - in a sparkling water kind of way. If you are carb-conscious, I could see this being your beer. If you lust after something a bit tastier, you should avoid Michelob Ultra.
