tastes the same as regular budweiser without the sharp carbonation in the finish. a little more smooth as well. tastes of grains and crappy malt.

Can. Tastes like can. I don’t know why all the other raters are complaining about the flavor, I can’t even tell that it has one. Also, the lightest colored beer ever. Including light beer. I bought it because I thought they had stopped making this in about 1989. Now I just wish they had.

What the hell is the difference between Bud Dry and Bud Ice? Let me think, could it be a marketing ploy to get more AB products on store shelves? I wonder?

There’s really nothing I enjoy about this beer. The smell is nausiating, the taste is even worse. I enjoy beer that makes me want more, and this is one I had to throw the other five away.

A faint dimple of corn and sour water mixed with rice and hops, topped off with a bit of malt. Awful, just awful.

Very ordinary with regard to all aspects of the beer. Typical of mass produced domestic beer. Nothing special

I found this ’gem’ in the very back corner of Beltway Fine Wine in Towson, Maryland. I remember the slogan "Why ask why? Try Bud Dry". Like most of the other raters, I didn’t think this was still produced. Curiosity made the final decision in my purchase and I was pleasantly let down when I tried my first. Bud Dry is like a pre-cursor to Bud Select. Bud Dry apparently wasn’t bad enough, so a decade later, Bud decided to revamp Bud Dry and make Bud Select. Not as good as an original Bud, not worth the price either. $9.00 a 12-pack. It comes with a born-on date, which surprisingly is current. Tastes like crap, but still much better than Miller Lite.

Metallic dry taste. Very dry taste that leaves you wanting something else crappy that is in the camping cooler. Even the carbonation fizzies are dry. It smells and looks like a light beer and that’s not saying much. Good luck.
