Bud Dry

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Pale Lager
St. Louis, Missouri USA

I won’t rate this very terribly. I won’t say it has a terrible taste. This is mainly because of the fact that it has no taste. I wasn’t even aware that Bud Dry was even being produced anymore. The born on date for the can I had was April 24th 2005, and it was bought around September 10th. Six months is a long time to move a small amount of beer at a liquor store. This is on par with Anheuser World Select...

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a very pale yellow color with a small white head. The aroma was typical tangy and sour macro lager - almost skunky. The flavor was tangy, sour and rather bland. There was very little body. There is a long dry aftertaste. Yuck.

Bottle. Light fizzy yellow color with no head. Not much flavor. Just CO2, bitter, and water. Dry bitter finish. It is a bud without the adjunct taste. Tastes like seltzer water. Blah.

Bottled. Stayed in the bottle as I feel there is no need to pour this just to see how it looks exactly like a budweiser. Side by side by side with bud light and bud select. Can’t distinguish any difference in aromas. That being said they all smell like some moist skunk. Cannot distinguish a flavor difference either. All wash down the same way.

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.

I just think this beer tasted like pure crap. I hated it but, It was bought for me and I just had to try it.

Draft. Pours yellow with a white head. Aroma of water, corn, grain, and slight hops. Flavor is corn, watered down, grain, with a slight dry finish. crap brew.

This was the first beer I ever had back when I first started drinking. At the time I enjoyed it, but it shows how little I knew. Now, it honestly just tastes like Bud Light that has gone skunky. Has bite, but not in a good way. It just kind of grabs your palate and puts it in a stranglehold. I would drink it if it was the last beer on earth. But that’s about it.
