Location: A few sips from a 12 oz bottle someone brought to a party, 10/31/09

Overall Impression: Lets just say those few sips were enough for me...
The scores seem high to me, this crap tasted like Bud Light, except hazier. I mean, I’m scoring this one for it really is, a weak offering.

This beer is part of the whole "wheat" movement which to me means that it has no flavor is more mass produced garbage from budweiser.....don’t buy or waste your money on this garbage

Quite decent offering in a macro-brewed light beer. Picked up a twelve on a hunch when I was in the mood for some light-weight sipping brew, and was not disappointed. This would really be quite excellent in the heat of the summer, and would be an excellent change of pace for holiday gatherings as well. Nice introduction to wheat beer, which can tend to be a little overwhelming to a novice. Hat’s off to Budweiser for daring to offer a very tasty alternative to the mainstream light beer market. This is really quite an innovative move on their part.

Smell is not that great of a wheat infused alcohol. Smells like bud light is what Im getting at. None to little lacing depending on temp. Overall not my wheat but give it to your wives they’ll probably love this one.

Bottle. This beer is best described as being not a wheat beer that happens to be on the same label as Bud Light, but that it’s just the Bud Light formula with "wheat flavors" added to it. I don’t rate this poorly because it’s Anheuser-Busch, but because it’s truly a bad beer.

12 oz bottle, pours a light hazy golden color. More translucent than other wheat ales. Aroma a little citrusy and somewhat spicy but very faint. Taste is decent- some bitterness but the sweetness and spicyness helps out to balance it. Palate was disappointing as it seemed a little too pale lagerish for a wheat ale. Better than regular Bud Light but still not as good as Shock Top.

What the hell. I’m going to try to not take this as craft beer jumping the shark. This is not good. Kind of smells like someone through some orange in a bud light. Taste is bad, with some fake coriander and orange. Light mouthfeel. Absolutely a night mare of a beer.

I should have asked for a glass but I drank it out of the bottle. The taste was light but was a good first beer to quench the thirst. it had the classic wheat taste

Poured a slightly cloudy amber hue with a white head. Aroma was mostly of a wheat note, although there was some spice it really wasn’t dominate enough to over power the malt presence. Flavor seemed to have nice wheat notes and not any unpleasant malt notes. There was some coriander flavors that where a little more assertive then the aroma indicated. Finish was smooth and a little to gassy. Not a bad beer. but not good either.
