Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Malt Liquor

Picture This: A man with only a few dollars in this pocket has had a bad day and needs a pick me up fast, what does he do? He goes and buys an odd tasting but quite intoxicating brew...Its watered down and smells like that too, but gets you drunk, this beers only point! .yup....tastes like a dirty ass just wiped with a alcohol swab...crapola!

This is really, really bad. Water tastes far better. How anyone can drink this stuff is beyond me.

I don’t know how my neighbors can do this. I’m pretty open minded with what people like to drink, but damn...they gotta have some fucked up sense of taste or smell or something. Just...ugh. I mean, it’s not offensive to look at, and if you keep it at that level then it’s cool. Smell or taste this and the fun is over. A typical clear pale golden yellow pour, with a foamy white head. No lacing, just a quick melt. Green apples, metal, and corn in the aroma. Strange veggie-like sweetness on the palate (sweet onions?), more green apples, corn with a touch of bitterness. Strange that a brewer would devise a process to make a shitty beer even MORE shitty, but..whatever.

Pretty horrible by all counts. My first introduction to this beer was served warm during pledge period. Glad that’s behind me as i sampled this tonight. Corny, grainy, a little funk. alcohol was tastable.

Ah, revisited this beauty at a party while my buddy was in town from DC. The swill was injected into my system via the time-honored shotgun technique. Wow. This taste so much like soap.

Yeah, my damned buddy is in town again. Again he brings this swill. This time I poured into a glass. Soap. So much soap, I have a headache. dammit.

So my asshole buddy left about six bottles of this crap in the fridge. I swore to my girlfriend I’d diligently make them disappear. So, knowing better than to drink it, I’ve been cooking with it. I’ve ruined a variety of dishes with this foul liquid. I had to throw away some spinach and potatoes that stewed a little too long in it. I tried to eat them, but I couldn’t quite clean my plate without feeling sick. I mean, this beer is just absolutely offensive. Completely horrid.

bottle. What can you say about a beer thats called "beast" by teenagers. Yuck!

From the tap, served in a standard bar pint glass. Poured a clear pale straw golden with a foamy white head that settled into a thin lacing. Had a largely a clean nose, faints aromas of cooked corn, rice malts and alcohol of a solvent nature. Good carbonation and crisp, smooth light bodied mouthfeel. Bland and sterile alcohol tasting, cooked corn and husks, rice and solvent alcohol flavor coming through at the end and a corny alcohol lingering in the aftertaste, the drinkability is not that great, a step above water. Had this today at lunch, the tap choices were pretty poor to begin with, but I thought I would go ahead and try this, bad decision.

Keep this in mind while tasting this junk - they call urine natural, too.
