Commercial Description:
Beach Bum is an all-malt American blonde ale, which draws its deep golden color from the finest pale and caramel roasted barley malts. This beer is dry hopped with the choicest imported Alsace and Hallertau hops as well as Cascade hops from the Pacific Northwest, which lend to its pleasant hop aroma and its slightly spicy and fruity taste.

Pours orange with a moderate head. Aroma is minor with a bit of an orange, sweet quality. Flavor is rather sweet with citrus qualities. Pretty bland and unexciting.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a medium frothy white head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is a light corn malt and yeast. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a very bland watery malt with a metallic finish. Not much going on with this blond from AB.

Grapefruit aroma, looks like an american lager. Tastes of banana bread, this is actually very good. Dont let the Anheuser name fool you! This is not your average macro.

Tap at a random bar, smells a bit sweet with some malt, definite hops in the taste not a bad beer at al. Very drinkable I was surprised this was an AB beer, Wouldnt buy again but wouldn’t turn down

Pours yellow-gold with a thin white head and very slight lacing. Not much flavor but has a little bit of a bitter finish. Sessionable but not very tasty.
