Overall Impression: If I need a beer to drink during a Marathon (that’s Ultra’s selling point right?) I guess this would be the one...

I would never have tried this if it wasn’t for Ratebeer - but I wanted a brew I hadn’t evaluated before and at the local gas station / C-Store this was about it.

I’m pleasantly surprised ... Light amber beer with a thin and fizzy head, aroma of malt (yes - malt) and faint hops. Slightly malty flavor at the start with a mild touch of hops in the finish. For the genre, it’s very good. Extra point for the respectable ABV level, something missing from most light brews. (Of course, I only drink beer for the taste and flavor.) Gosh - maybe I should try the raspberry pomegranate tutee fruity Ultra next...

If you have to drink a lite beer, this one almost feels like a real beer. Taste isn’t bad, kick is strong!

Light cherry aroma. Clear dark amber color, minimal head. Cherry tinged taste of malts. Watery mouthfeel.

Flavorless swill- thin barely detectable taste. Looks like watered down tea. abrupt finiish. Dull dull dull. I haven’t had a beer this crappy in a long time-mostly because I tend to avoid AB. Now I remember why. Good thing it was a freebie-DRAIN POUR. Not wasting a perfectly good liver on excrement like this.

Better than I expected. Was surprised that a friend bought this on a recent golf trip. However, gave it a try, and found that it wasn’t horrible. Very light aroma and texture as expected but the taste has a little bit of sweet roasted malt to give it a more flavorful body than the average light beer. Might actually include this one in the summer rotation at some point.

Came as part of a mix-n-match case with a $15 rebate. This was the weakest of the four six-packs, the others being dunkelweizen, porter, & pale ale. Its not terrible, its just lame as a three legged dog. Pale amber beer with a fizzy white head. Faint aroma of pale malt. Flavor of weak amber malt mixed with seltzer water. No hops, no finish. How they get 5% ABV from a beer this flavorless is beyond me. Maybe it works as a girlie beer or a fat-boy beer, but it doesn’t work for me.
