Look you all, for what it is, it’s not that bad. A low carb, light beer is almost a no winner from the get-go, so jeez give it a break allready. The seltzer water of beers, light color, light nose, no head to speak of, though I find Ultra about the most refreshing around, a good thirst quencher, and you can drink a TON of em’ too.

Bottle: This beer . . . um, if that is what you could call it, had no taste. It makes Coors Light seem like a brown ale. My dear wife of 9 years has a tolerance for all kinds of beer, even non-beers like this one. She appreciates this for its refreshing quality and low carbs. This is why it is in our house. I love how Michelob has gone for the false advertising bit -- Michelob ULTRA? You would expect with that term it would be like a Michelob stout. What would be more accurate? Michelob Barely. But that wouldn’t sell very many 24 packs. So, I agree with many before me who have rated this light beer-colored water -- 0% is appropriate. Thank you, come again!

This beer is horrid. Pour it into a tall glass, you can see 5 miles though it. I know pale lager isn’t supposed to look like Whitbir, but if you take all the rendered sugar out of a pale lager, you ’ll get this headless crap. If you’re trying to lose weight, drink gatorade, jeez. Oh yeah, tastes like one part coors, one part vodka, five parts carbonated water.

Draft on the Cornell Arts Quad - this stuff burned my nostrils, and the first sip was fizzy chemical piss. Maybe a bad keg or distribution system, maybe just a really rotten beer. Dumped the Ultra and went back to MichLite.

It’s like water with minimal parts alcohol. And a dash of beer flavor. I mean, if you’re at the ballpark and have a hot dog in one hand and a cup of this in the other, it’s really not terrible. You can’t really taste it, so it’s not as if you’re drinking something that you’ll regret. Recap... very little taste, very little color, and watery mouthfeel are normally bad. In fact, this may be like a bulldog. So ugly it’s cute. It just depends on the situation

Tap: Man is this bad. I remember when it came out, and I was at the time only drinking macros ... thought they did a pretty good job of making a beer that tasted nearly the same. My friend ordered us some the first two rounds and I had to swtich to Miller Lite and was VERY happy about it after drinking two of these.

Basically just water, it’s up side is that there isn’t really much that is unpleasant about it. Suitable for hot climates. Rated somewhat higher since it’s not really a drain pour.
