5% bottle. Very disappointed. Considering the ratings I was expecting something spectacularly vile, but this just doesn’t deliver. Pale and wet. Very still and pallid. A not disgracefully dry, almost fruity aroma with a hint of Badger (the beer). Watery, rubbery, malty. A trace of alcohol, almost peach. Maybe allowing more sugar than normal to ferment has accidentally imparted a half-drinkable dryness, because this beer has a long way to go before it can truly considered a contender for The Worst Beer In The World title. Inoffensive considering it’s low carb.

Not much going on here...I can drink it with spicy food. I can also drink it when "low carbing".

Extremely light yellow color beer. Almost like water with lemon juice squirted in it... Very short lived head. An extremely subtle grain smell, and taste is one of the lightest of any beer I’ve ever had. Not bad tasting, but closer to water than beer as far as the taste. Still, I’d rather drink this over some other beers, actually.

Sampled at the Second Cellar Reduction. The pale-est yellow piss pour that Ive ever seen with the thinest ring of white head. Sweet candi sugar aroma, and banana? Flavor of light banana and cardboard. Thin body with huge carbonation. Not awful, just devoid of anything good.

Only time I drank this was on a hot day at a Michelob tent at the Tour of Missouri. It was good for the hot day & it was free. I can say it was better than Bud. Did I mention it was free? I won’t be buying any....

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.

I was pleasantly surprised by this. It was gasy, and watery, and too light, and not filling, but the flavor was better than any other commercial beer by Michelob, Miller, Coors, or Bud. That is not saying much, but hey. The aftertaste is horrid and rancid though, so buyer beware.
